Figure Lengend Snippet: Functional impact of LATS2 upregulation on LUAD/LUSC cell viability and apoptosis. (A) Baseline LATS2 expression comparison in A549 (LUAD), SK-MES-1 (LUSC) and Beas-2B (normal bronchial) cell lines. (B) Western blot validation of LATS2 protein overexpression post-transfection. (C) Transfection efficiency confirmation via fluorescence labeling (MOI=10; transfection rate=90.5 and 90% in LUAD and LUSC, respectively). Scale bar, 100 µm. (D) qPCR quantification of LATS2 mRNA induction post-transfection. (E) MTT assay evaluation of cell proliferation changes following LATS2 upregulation. (F) Flow cytometry analysis of apoptosis rate alterations after LATS2 upregulation. Data are presented as mean ± SD and all comparisons were conducted using independent samples t-test. *P<0.05, **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001.

Figure Lengend Snippet: a , Tumour challenge schematic for multiple myeloma. NSG MHC-I/II double-KO mice received i.v. OPM2 cells (1 × 10 6 ), followed 5 days later by human PBMCs (1 × 10 7 ). Then, 5 days after PBMC transfer, mice received PBS or anti-CD3-EDV (5 × 10 11 sgRNAs per mouse; Cas9–sgTRAC) plus AAV-hT7 (1 × 10 12 vg per mouse), delivering a TRAC HDRT encoding a BCMA-1XX-CAR-P2A-EGFRt. The tumour burden was monitored using BLI. At day 35 after EDV/AAV treatment, mice were rechallenged i.v. with OPM2 cells (5 × 10 6 ). b , BLI measurements in mice injected with OPM2 alone ( n = 5), OPM2 + PBMC ( n = 8) or OPM2 + PBMC + EDV/AAV ( n = 8). Rechallenge was performed in four EDV/AAV-treated mice that controlled tumour growth by day 35 and in five age-matched control mice. BLI values represent the mean of dorsal and ventral signals (photons per s per cm 2 ). c , Tumour challenge schematic for solid tumours. NSG MHC-I/II double-KO mice received subcutaneous (s.c.) MES-SA cells (4 × 10 6 ), followed 4 days later by human PBMCs (1 × 10 7 ). Then, 3 days after PBMC transfer, mice received PBS or anti-CD3-EDV (5 × 10 11 sgRNAs per mouse) plus AAV-hT7 (1 × 10 12 vg per mouse), delivering a TRAC HDRT encoding an anti-B7H3-CD28ζ-1XX-CAR-P2A-EGFRt. The tumour burden was assessed by calliper measurements. d , Kaplan–Meier survival analysis of mice bearing MES-SA tumours; MES-SA only ( n = 4), MES-SA + PBMC ( n = 5) or MES-SA + PBMC + EDV/AAV (anti-B7H3–CD28ζ−1XX TRAC CAR; n = 6). e , Tumour growth measurements from the mice in d . CR, complete response. Images in a and c were adapted from Servier Medical Art ( https://smart.servier.com/ ), under a CC BY 4.0 licence.
