Pre-Existing Chromatin Accessibility and Gene Expression Differences among Naive CD4+ T Cells Influence Effector Potential
[Cell Reports] The authors probed the heterogeneity present among naive CD4+ T cells before encountering their cognate antigen to ask whether their effector potential was modulated by pre-existing transcriptional and chromatin landscape differences.

Repeated Plasmodium falciparum Infection in Humans Drives the Clonal Expansion of an Adaptive γδ T Cell Repertoire
[Science Translational Medicine] The authors investigated the impact of repeated P. falciparum infections on human γδ T cells in the context of natural infection in Malian children and adults, as well as serial controlled human malaria infection of US adults, some of whom became clinically immune to malaria.
