Professional Interests
We investigate how T cells traffic and respond to infections. In particular, we study the signals that regulate T cell migration and activation to ensure protective immunity while preventing autoimmunity and immunodeficiency disease.
The immunology of vitiligo. Effects and mechanisms of monoclonal and polyclonal human antibodies in protection of humanized mice from HIV-1 challenge. Anti-CD206 CAR T Cell Treatment Restores Fibrosis-Induced Loss of Dermal White Adipose Tissue. Reply to nurture over nature in fate decisions of antigen-specific CD8(+) T cell clones from an endogenous repertoire. Cancer therapy via neoepitope-specific monoclonal antibody cocktails. The endogenous antigen-specific CD8(+) T cell repertoire is composed of unbiased and biased clonotypes with differential fate commitments. KLF2 maintains lineage fidelity and suppresses CD8 T cell exhaustion during acute LCMV infection. CD4 T cell depletion increases memory differentiation of endogenous and CAR T cells and enhances the efficacy of Super2 and IL-33-armored CAR T cells against solid tumors. Depletion of conventional CD4(+) T cells is required for robust priming and dissemination of tumor antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells in the setting of anti-CD4 therapy.
