| In situ photoconversion and Prtn3-based fate-tracking revealed that the lymph node medullary cords were preferential entry sites for dendritic cell precursors, serving as specific differentiation niches. [Immunity] |

|
| Diet-induced obesity resulted in a reduction of PPARγ+ skin Treg cells and a corresponding loss of control over IL-17A+ γδ T cell-mediated inflammation. [Immunity] |
|
|
|
| Using reporter and knockout mouse models combined with single-cell RNA-sequencing, progenitor transfer and colony assays, investigators showed that the transcription factor ThPOK controlled monocyte-dendritic cell versus granulocyte lineage production during homeostatic differentiation. [Nature Immunology] |
|
|
|
| Researchers reported a nano-mediated strategy to stimulate the precise clearance of activated neutrophils initiated with artificial aged signal and alleviated inflammation. [ACS Nano] |
|
|
|
| Mice deficient in cellular inhibitor of apoptosis proteins 1 and 2 (cIAP1/2) had severely reduced γδT17 cells and group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3), presented with suboptimal γδT17 responses in the skin, lacked intestinal isolated lymphoid follicles, and could control intestinal bacterial infection.

|
|
| The authors combined whole-tissue imaging and single-cell RNA sequencing datasets to generate a pan-organ analysis of mast cells in mice and humans at steady state. [Journal Of Experimental Medicine] |

|
|
| Neutralization and knockdown of prosaposin or blocking GRP37 abrogated the pro-resolution effects of efferocyte-derived extracellular vesicles in vivo. [Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| To determine the roles of T-bet-expressing Treg cells, scientists generated a mouse strain, called VeDTR, in which T-bet/Foxp3 double-positive cells were engineered to be specifically labeled and depleted by a combination of Cre- and Flp-recombinase-dependent gene expression control. [Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| To determine the function of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) in barrier sites, researchers investigated the impact of endogenous TSLP signaling on the homeostatic expansion of CD4+ T cells in adult mice. [JCI Insight] |
| |
|
|
|
| The authors summarize the major findings that led to the discovery of RORγt+ Aantigen-presenting cells and their associated functions, discuss discordance in recent reports, and identify gaps in knowledge in this burgeoning field. [Nature Reviews Immunology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists review recent advances in the understanding of the fibrotic microenvironment in human diseases, with a focus on immune cell profiles and functional immune–stromal interactions. [Nature Immunology] |

|
| NIH and other funding agencies are putting the kibosh on the approach. NIH banned the use of online generative AI tools like ChatGPT “for analyzing and formulating peer-review critiques”. [Science Insider] |
