- 4-1BB costimulation promotes CAR T cell survival through noncanonical NF-κB signaling
Noncanonical NF-κB signaling enhances the survival of CAR T cells expressing the 4-1BB costimulatory domain.
- Calmodulin disrupts plasma membrane localization of farnesylated KRAS4b by sequestering its lipid moiety
Calmodulin sequesters and inhibits KRAS4b by binding a lipid-modified region of the protein.
- Low intrinsic efficacy for G protein activation can explain the improved side effect profiles of new opioid agonists
Low intrinsic efficacy can explain the reduced side effects of apparently biased μ-opioid receptor agonists.

About The Cover

Online Cover This week features a Research Article that shows that noncanonical NF-κB signaling enhances the survival of CAR T cells that express the costimulatory domain of 4-1BB. These data suggest that manipulation of this pathway in future CAR T cell designs may improve clinical benefit.
