Single-cell T-cell receptor repertoire profiling in dogs

M. H. Hoang, Z. L. Skidmore, et al.

Discover how single-cell T-cell receptor sequencing (scTCRseq) provides insights into immune responses in dogs with cancer. This groundbreaking research, led by My H. Hoang and colleagues, reveals the diverse T-cell repertoires in healthy dogs and distinct profiles in those with T-cell lymphoma and melanoma, highlighting potential anti-tumor activity.

Abstract
This study demonstrates the applicability of single-cell T-cell receptor sequencing (scTCRseq) in dogs with cancer. Researchers profiled PBMCs or lymph node aspirates from healthy dogs, dogs with T-cell lymphoma, and dogs with melanoma using scRNA and dog-specific scTCRseq primers. Healthy dogs showed highly diverse repertoires, lymphomas exhibited clonal repertoires, and melanoma dogs displayed a limited number of abundant clonotypes. Analysis of dominant clonotypes in melanoma PBMCs revealed predominantly activated CD8+ T cells, suggesting potential anti-tumor activity.
