[PLoS One] Researchers showed that an endogenously activated interferon lambda pathway led to resistance against SARS-CoV-2 infection.

[Journal of Experimental Medicine] The authors demonstrated that BND cells from SARS-CoV-2 severely infected individuals were significantly activated, displayed reduced inhibitory receptor expression, and restored B cell receptor signaling, indicative of a breach in anergy during viral infection, supported by increased levels of autoreactive antibodies.

[Cell Reports] Investigators profiled the blood immune system in patients, with or without prior malaria exposure, over 1 year after acute symptomatic Plasmodium falciparum malaria.

[Frontiers in Immunology] A cohort of convalescent healthcare workers was recruited and their immune responses were studied over a period of three to nine months following the onset of symptoms.

[Cell Reports] Researchers showed that Escherichia coli sensed host immune responses and initiated escape by upregulating a key phospholipase.

[Cell Reports] Scientists showed that Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection alters the phenotype and function of lung IL-18Rα+ innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) toward a protective interferon-γ-producing ILC1-like population.
