X Abstract

The Wnt pathway has a central role in stem cell regulation. Gattinoni et al. now show that activation of the Wnt signaling cascade in naive CD8+ T cells blocks their differentiation into effector T cells and triggers instead a memory stem celllike phenotype. These T memory stem cells show enhanced antitumor efficacy in mice compared with other T cell subsets, arguing for their further evaluation in adoptive immunotherapies (pages 731732).

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
