    TOP STORY

    Macrophage Fumarate Hydratase Restrains mtRNA-Mediated Interferon Production

    Using unbiased metabolomics and stable isotope-assisted tracing, scientists showed that an inflammatory aspartate–argininosuccinate shunt was induced following lipopolysaccharide stimulation.

    Microglia-Mediated T Cell Infiltration Drives Neurodegeneration in Tauopathy

    Researchers compared the immunological milieux in the brain of mice with amyloid deposition or tau aggregation and neurodegeneration, to investigate the extent or role of the adaptive immune response and its interaction with the innate immune response in the presence of amyloid-β or tau pathology.

    B Cell Receptor Signaling in Germinal Centers Prolongs Survival and Primes B Cells for Selection

    To investigate the role of B cell receptor signaling in Germinal centers selection, the authors developed a tracker for antigen binding and presentation and a Bruton’s tyrosine kinase drug-resistant-mutant mouse model.

    Tissue-Resident Lachnospiraceae Family Bacteria Protect against Colorectal Carcinogenesis by Promoting Tumor Immune Surveillance

    Mechanistically, intratissue Ruminococcus gnavus and Blautia producta degraded lyso-glycerophospholipids that inhibited CD8+ T cell activity and maintained the immune surveillance function of CD8+ T cells.

    Immune Checkpoint Blockade Induces Gut Microbiota Translocation That Augments Extraintestinal Antitumor Immunity

    Mechanistically, immune checkpoint therapy induced lymph node remodeling and dendritic cell activation, which facilitated the translocation of a selective subset of gut bacteria to extraintestinal tissues to promote optimal antitumor T cell responses in both the tumor-draining lymph nodes and the primary tumor.

    Single Immunizations of Self-Amplifying or Non-Replicating mRNA-LNP Vaccines Control HPV-Associated Tumors in Mice

    Scientists demonstrated that single low-dose immunizations with any of the three HPV-16 E7 oncoprotein and herpes simplex virus type 1 glycoprotein D (gDE7) mRNA vaccines induced activation of E7-specific CD8+ T cells and generated memory T cell responses capable of preventing tumor relapses.

    B Cell Receptor Ligation Induces IgE Plasma Cell Elimination

    Investigators found that B cell receptor (BCR) ligation induced BCR signaling in IgE plasma cells (PCs) followed by their elimination. In cell culture, exposure of IgE PCs to cognate antigen or anti-BCR antibodies induced apoptosis.

    Intestinal Cell Type-Specific Communication Networks Underlie Homeostasis and Response to Western Diet

    scRNA-seq and flow cytometry studies of different layers of intestinal cells revealed new cell subsets and modeled developmental trajectories of intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes, lamina propria lymphocytes, conventional dendritic cells, and enterocytes.

    Microparticle-Delivered Cxcl9 Prolongs Braf Inhibitor Efficacy in Melanoma

    The authors established a genetically engineered mouse model of BrafV600E-driven melanoma minimal residual disease, wherein genetic BrafV600E extinction led to strong but incomplete tumor regression.

    Phosphoenolpyruvate Regulates the Th17 Transcriptional Program and Inhibits Autoimmunity

    Researchers identified a glycolytic intermediate metabolite, phosphoenolpyruvate, as a negative regulator of Th17 differentiation.

    IFNγ Is a Central Node of Cancer Immune Equilibrium

    CD8+ T cell direct recognition of MHC class I, perforin/granzyme-mediated cytotoxicity, and extrinsic death receptor signaling such as Fas/FasL were all individually dispensable for equilibrium.

    Full ArticleGraphical Abstract

    The Kinetics of Signaling through the Common FcRγ Chain Determine Cytokine Profiles in Dendritic Cells

    Chronological tracing of transcriptomic and epigenetic changes upon stimulation revealed that Dectin-2 induced early and strong signaling, whereas Mincle-mediated signaling was delayed, which reflected their expression patterns.

    Targeting Type 2 Immunity and the Future of Food Allergy Treatment

    Oral immunotherapy for the treatment of food allergy incompletely targets subsets of type 2 immunity in a transient manner, but new therapeutics targeting different levels of type 2 immunity are in current or planned trials for food allergy.
