🚨 New study from the lab of our Vice Director, Arlene Sharpe, led by @kepauken.bsky.social & #SamuelMarkson in @jem.org.
PD-1 regulates tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells in both a cell-intrinsic & a cell-extrinsic fashion🧪

Excited to announce that my final co-first author publication from my postdoctoral training with Dr. Arlene Sharpe was published in @jem.org today! Thank you to everyone involved! Check out our new findings on the importance of cell extrinsic consequences after PD1 loss!

@kepauken.bsky.social, Markson, Sharpe et al. @harvardmed.bsky.social show that when PD-1–expressing and PD-1 knockout CD8+ T cells are within the same tumor microenvironment, both cell types exhibit similarly enhanced functions. rupress.org/jem/article/...
