    A Conserved Population of MHC II-Restricted, Innate-Like, Commensal-Reactive T Cells in the Gut of Humans and Mice

    The conserved cell population was abundant in the human and murine colon, and endowed with polyfunctional effector properties spanning classic Th1- and Th17-cytokines, cytotoxic molecules, and regulators of epithelial homeostasis.

    Synergistic Combination of Targeted Nano-Nuclear-Reactors and Anti-PD-L1 Nanobodies Evokes Persistent T Cell Immune Activation for Cancer Immunotherapy

    Scientists reported that Fe-doped and doxorubicin loaded HA@Cu2−XS-PEG nanomaterials were rationally designed as targeted Fe-PHCN@DOX nano-nuclear-reactors, which evoked persistent T cell immune response together with anti-PD-L1 nanobodies.

    Lymph Node Fibroblastic Reticular Cells Attenuate Immune Responses through Induction of Tolerogenic Macrophages at Early Stage of Transplantation

    The authors investigated whether fibroblastic reticular cells in lymph nodes could induce tolerogenic macrophage generation and further influence T cell immunity at an early stage of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

    L-Theanine Alleviates Heat Stress-Induced Impairment of Immune Function by Regulating the p38 MAPK Signaling Pathway in Mice

    Male BALB/c mice were used as experimental objects to explore the effect of L-theanine on heat stress-induced changes in immune function and its mechanism. Three doses of L-theanine were used: low, medium, and high.

    Abstract

    Sex-Specific Differences in T Cell Immune Dysregulation and Aberrant Response to Inflammatory Stimuli in Offspring Exposed to Maternal Chronic Inflammation

    The authors investigated how maternal chronic inflammation affected the T cell immune development from the fetal to the neonatal period and how offspring responded to postnatal IL-1β challenge when exposed to an adverse intrauterine environment.
