  • Publication number: 20250253376
    Abstract: Provided is a method of operating a flow battery. The method includes charging a first active material in the first electrolyte and a second active material in the second electrolyte, where during charging of the second active material a metal impurity is precipitated out of the second electrolyte. The method includes isolating the second electrolyte in a subflow structure of a dynamic fluidic network, where the flow battery is configured to circulate the second electrolyte within the subflow structure while the subflow structure is in isolation from a second electrolyte source. The method includes discharging the second active material, where during discharging the metal impurity is dissolved in the second electrolyte circulating within the subflow structure. The method includes removing the second electrolyte comprising the metal impurity from the subflow structure.

  • Publication number: 20240309324
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to compositions and methods useful for an adoptive cell therapy. Some embodiments of the disclosure relates to methods for producing a population of lymphocytes enriched in T stem cell memory cells (TSCM cells). Further provided are compositions containing a substantially pure population of TSCM cells that are therapeutically effective in treating various cancers, and kits containing such compositions. Methods for treating a subject having or suspected of having a cancer using the compositions and kits as disclosed herein are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20240293461
    Abstract: The present invention relates to T cell compositions and methods of using the same in the context of therapy and treatment. In particular, the invention provides chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells that are modified to maintain functionality under conditions in which unmodified CAR T cells display exhaustion. Compositions and methods disclosed herein find use in inhibiting or reversing CAR T cell exhaustion (e.g., by modulating CAR surface expression) thereby enhancing CAR T cell function. Compositions and methods of the invention find use in both clinical and research settings, for example, within the fields of biology, immunology, medicine, and oncology.

  • Publication number: 20220401486
    Abstract: The present invention relates to T cell compositions and methods of using the same in the context of therapy and treatment. In particular, the invention provides T cells that are modified (e.g., genetically and/or functionally) to maintain functionality under conditions in which unmodified T cells display exhaustion. Compositions and methods disclosed herein find use in preventing exhaustion of engineered (e.g., chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells) as well as non-engineered T cells thereby enhancing T cell function (e.g., activity against cancer or infectious disease).

  • Publication number: 20210393628
    Abstract: This invention is in the field of medicinal chemistry. In particular, provided herein are compositions and methods for preventing or reversing T cell exhaustion. In certain embodiments, the present invention relates to methods of preventing or reversing T cell exhaustion by exposing T cells experiencing T cell exhaustion to a new class of small-molecules having a thiazole, imidazolepyridiazine or piperazinyl-methyl-aniline structure, or by expanding genetically engineered T cells in the presence of such small molecules.
