Discriminating Mild From Critical COVID-19 by Innate and Adaptive Immune Single-Cell Profiling of Bronchoalveolar Lavages

In mild COVID-19, CD8+ resident-memory and CD4+ T-helper-17 cells underwent active expansion towards the end of the trajectory, and were characterized by good effector functions, while in critical COVID-19 they remain more naïve.

Spatiotemporal Single-Cell Profiling Reveals That Invasive and Tissue-Resident Memory Donor CD8+ T Cells Drive Gastrointestinal Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease

Scientists combined the serial intravascular staining technique with single-cell RNA sequencing to dissect the tightly connected processes by which donor T cells initially infiltrate tissues and then established a pathogenic tissue residency program in a rhesus macaque allo-HCT model that develops acute graft-versus-host disease.

FYN–TRAF3IP2 Induces NF-κB Signaling-Driven Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma

Consistent with a driver oncogenic role, FYN–TRAF3IP2 expression in hematopoietic progenitors induced NF-κB-driven T-cell transformation in mice and cooperated with loss of the Tet2 tumor suppressor in peripheral T-cell lymphoma development.

Lipophagy Confers a Key Metabolic Advantage That Ensures Protective CD8A T-Cell Responses against HIV-1

Scientists showed that, after both polyclonal and HIV-1-specific activation, CD8A T-cells from ART displayed reduced autophagy-dependent degradation of lysosomal contents when compared to naturally HIV-1 protected elite controllers.
