    B Cell-Specific Checkpoint Molecules that Regulate Anti-Tumor Immunity

    Using high-throughput flow cytometry as well as bulk and ssRNA-sequencing and B cell-receptor-sequencing analysis of B cells temporally during B16F10 melanoma growth, scientists identified a subset of B cells that expanded specifically in the draining lymph node over time in tumor-bearing mice.

    M2 Macrophage Hybrid Membrane-Camouflaged Targeted Biomimetic Nanosomes to Reprogram Inflammatory Microenvironment for Enhanced Enzyme-Thermo-Immunotherapy

    An M2 macrophage-erythrocyte hybrid membrane-camouflaged biomimetic nanosized liposome was engineered to deliver targeted self-cascading bienzymes and immunomodulators to reprogram the inflammatory microenvironment in gouty rats.

    Activation of Regulatory Dendritic Cells by Mertk Coincides with a Temporal Wave of Apoptosis in Neonatal Lungs

    Investigators identified a population of pulmonary dendritic cells that expressed intermediate levels of CD103 and appeared in the lungs and lung-draining lymph nodes of mice between birth and two weeks of age.

    Abstract

    Hexokinase Dissociation from Mitochondria Promotes Oligomerization of VDAC that Facilitates NLRP3 Inflammasome Assembly and Activation

    Researchers reported that multiple canonical activators of NLRP3 in mouse macrophages shared the ability to displace the glycolytic enzyme hexokinase 2 from the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) on the outer membranes of mitochondria.

    Mannosylated Glycans Impair Normal T Cell Development by Reprogramming Commitment and Repertoire Diversity

    After restricting the N-glycosylation profile of thymocytes to high-mannose structures, using specific glycoengineered mice, scientists showed remarkable defects in key developmental checkpoints, including ß-selection, regulatory T cell generation, and γδT cell development.

    Tnpo3 Controls Splicing of the Pre-mRNA Encoding the Canonical TCR α Chain of iNKT Cells

    The block of innate natural killer T cells (iNKT) cell development in the absence of Tnpo3 could be overcome by transgenic provision of a rearranged Trav11-Traj18-Trac cDNA, indicating that Tnpo3 deficiency did not interfere with the development of iNKT cells per se.

    CD103 Regulates Dermal Regulatory T Cell Motility and Interactions with CD11c-Expressing Leukocytes to Control Skin Inflammation

    Inhibition of CD103 in uninflamed skin did not alter Treg behavior, whereas 48 hours after inducing contact hypersensitivity by oxazolone challenge, CD103 inhibition increased Treg migration.

    Interleukin-17 Receptor C Is Essential for the Pro-Inflammatory Pathogenicity of Granulocyte-Macrophage-Colony-Stimulating Factor-Producing T Helper Cells in Experimental Autoimmune Uveitis

    The authors established an experimental autoimmune uveitis model by immunizing mice with interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein 651–670.

    The Role of Transcription Factors in Shaping Regulatory T Cell Identity

    Understanding the imprinting of Treg cell identity and specialized function will be key to unravelling basic mechanisms of autoimmunity and identifying novel targets for drug development.

    Abstract

    Emerging Functions of Tissue-Resident Eosinophils

    Scientists discuss recent progress in our understanding of eosinophil activities within tissues, with particular emphasis on the gastrointestinal tract, where a large population of these cells resides under non-inflammatory conditions.

    Immunobiology of Pregnancy: From Basic Science to Translational Medicine

    The authors dissect the role played by the immune system in the endometrial–embryo crosstalk, with a particular emphasis towards the fork-head-box-p3 CD4+CD25+ Treg cells, and discuss the most recent therapeutic advances in the context of early immune-mediated pregnancy loss.
