    Abstract Most tools for analyzing large gene expression datasets, including The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), have focused on analyzing the expression of individual genes or inference of the abundance of specific cell types from whole transcriptome information. While these methods provide useful insights, they can overlook crucial process-based information that may enhance our understanding of cancer biology. In this study, we describe three novel tools incorporated into an online resource; gene set-based analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas (GS-TCGA). GS-TCGA is designed to enable user-friendly exploration of TCGA data using gene set-based analysis, leveraging gene sets from the Molecular Signatures Database. GS-TCGA includes three unique tools: GS-Surv determines the association between the expression of gene sets and survival in human cancers. Co-correlative gene set enrichment analysis (CC-GSEA) utilizes interpatient heterogeneity in cancer gene expression to infer functions of specific genes based on GSEA of coregulated genes in TCGA. GS-Corr utilizes interpatient heterogeneity in cancer gene expression profiles to identify genes coregulated with the expression of specific gene sets in TCGA. Users are also able to upload custom gene sets for analysis with each tool. These tools empower researchers to perform survival analysis linked to gene set expression, explore the functional implications of gene coexpression, and identify potential gene regulatory mechanisms.

    Abstract T cells are often compromised within cancers, allowing disease progression. We previously found that intratumoral elevations in extracellular K+, related to ongoing cell death, constrained CD8+ T-cell Akt-mTOR signaling and effector function. To alleviate K+-mediated T-cell dysfunction, we pursued genetic means to lower intracellular K+. CD8+ T cells robustly and dynamically express the Na+/K+ ATPase, among other K+ transporters. CRISPR-Cas9-mediated disruption of the Atp1a1 locus lowered intracellular K+ and elevated the resting membrane potential (i.e., Vm, Ψ). Despite compromised Ca2+ influx, Atp1a1-deficient T cells harbored tonic hyperactivity in multiple signal transduction cascades, along with a phenotype of exhaustion in mouse and human CD8+ T cells. Provision of exogenous K+ restored intracellular levels in Atp1a1-deficient T cells and prevented damaging levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and both antioxidant treatment and exogenous K+ prevented Atp1a1-deficient T-cell exhaustion in vitro. T cells lacking Atp1a1 had compromised persistence and antitumor activity in a syngeneic model of orthotopic murine melanoma. Translational application of these findings will require balancing the beneficial aspects of intracellular K+ with the ROS-dependent nature of T-cell effector function.

    Abstract The inflammatory response to transformed cells forms the cornerstone of natural or therapeutically induced protective immunity to cancer. Regulatory T (Treg) cells are known for their critical role in suppressing inflammation, and therefore can antagonize effective anti-cancer immune responses. As such, Treg cells can play detrimental roles in tumour progression and in the response to both conventional and immune-based cancer therapies. Recent advances in our understanding of Treg cells reveal complex niche-specific regulatory programmes and functions, which are likely to extrapolate to cancer. The regulation of Treg cells is reliant on upstream cues from haematopoietic and non-immune cells, which dictates their genetic, epigenetic and downstream functional programmes. In this review we will discuss how Treg cells are themselves regulated in normal and transformed tissues, and the implications of this cross talk on tumour growth.

In this issue, we present a series of papers highlighting emerging themes on this topic relevant not only to our understanding of the fundamental biology of tumour immunosuppression but also to the design of new immunotherapeutic approaches.
