To investigate the role of CD8α:MyD88 in T cell exhaustiveness and differentiation in cancer immunotherapy.
Generated CD8α:MyD88 construct to enhance T cell responses.
Assessed TIL behavior through scRNAseq analysis and tumor control models.
Evaluated T cell functionality post-ex vivo restimulation.
CD8α:MyD88 T cells downregulate inhibitory receptors and maintain functionality.
Show advanced differentiation potential and high TCF1 expression.
Demonstrated sustained antitumor activity and immune memory after rechallenge.
