Differential Expression Profile of Gluten-Specific T Cells Identified by Single-Cell RNA-Seq
[PLOS ONE] In this first single-cell RNA-seq study of tetramer-sorted T cells from untreated celiac disease patients blood, investigators found that gluten-specific T cells showed distinct transcriptomic profiles consistent with activated effector memory T cells that shared features with Th1 and follicular helper T cells.

Differential Levels of mRNAs in Normal B Lymphocytes, Monoclonal B Lymphocytosis and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Cells from the Same Family Identify Susceptibility Genes
[Oncology and Therapy] Researchers hypothesized that progressive changes in gene expression resulted in malignant transformation of B lymphocytes to family histroy of monoclonal B lymphocytosis, and subsequent alterations in gene expression occur before overt family history of chronic lymphocytic leukemia develops.

CD73-Mediated Adenosine Production by CD8 T Cell-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Constitutes an Intrinsic Mechanism of Immune Suppression
[Nature Communications] The authors showed that extracellular vesicles isolated from the synovial fluid of patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis contribute to T cell suppression in a CD73-dependent manner.

Costimulation Molecules Differentially Regulate the ERK-Zfp831 Axis to Shape T Follicular Helper Cell Differentiation
[Immunity] The authors found that phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate + ionomycin stimulation, together with interleukin-6, potently induced T follicular helper cell-like transcriptomic programs in vitro.

Prognostic Implications of Tumor-Infiltrating T Cells in Early-Stage Endometrial Cancer
[Modern Pathology] The proportion of T cells and their subpopulations were associated with clinicopathological features and relapse-free survival outcomes. CD3+ CD4+ infiltrates were more abundant in the patients with higher grade or non-endometrioid histology.

Monoclonal Antibodies from Humans with Mycobacterium tuberculosis Exposure or Latent Infection Recognize Distinct Arabinomannan Epitopes
[Communications Biology] The authors generated human IgG mAbs to AM/LAM from B cells of two asymptomatic individuals exposed to or latently infected with M. tuberculosis.
