NK Cells and Monocytes Modulate Primary HTLV-1 Infection
[PLoS Pathogens] The authors investigated the impact of monocytes, NK cells, and CD8+ T cells in primary HTLV-1 infection by depleting cell subsets and exposing macaques to either HTLV-1 wild type or to the HTLV-1p12KO mutant.

Accurate Detection of Tumor-Specific Gene Fusions Reveals Strongly Immunogenic Personal Neo-Antigens
[Nature Biotechnology] By testing immunogenicity with autologous blood lymphocytes from patients with cancer, scientists detected pre-established CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses for 10 of 21 and for 1 of 30 previously identified gene fusions, respectively.

Pinpointing the Tumor-Specific T Cells via TCR Clusters
[eLife] The authors demonstrated that homology cluster analysis of T cell receptor (TCR) repertoires efficiently identified tumor-reactive TCRs.

Type 1 Conventional Dendritic Cells Maintain and Guide the Differentiation of Precursors of Exhausted T Cells in Distinct Cellular Niches
[Immunity] Scientists identified transcriptionally distinct exhausted T cell subpopulations, mapped their differentiation trajectories via transitory cellular states toward exhausted CD8+ T cells, and localized these cell states to specific splenic niches.
