Landscape of mast cell populations across organs in mice and humans
Combining whole-tissue imaging and single-cell RNA sequencing datasets, Tauber et al. present a pan-organ analysis of mast...
IL-21 shapes germinal center polarization via light zone B cell selection and cyclin D3 upregulation
Petersone et al. investigate IL-21–dependent germinal center (GC) regulation and reveal key roles for IL-21 in promoting l...
Type I interferons drive MAIT cell functions against bacterial pneumonia
This report identifies a central role for type I interferons in governing the activation and effector functions of murine ...
Thymic mimicry: The art of imitation
Michelson and colleagues continue to advance our understanding of self-antigen representation by medullary thymic epitheli...
An oncolytic virus–delivered TGFβ inhibitor overcomes the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment
Oncolytic viruses induce tumor lysis and inflame the tumor microenvironment but do not relieve immunosuppressive signals. ...
Targeting helminths: The expanding world of type 2 immune effector mechanisms
Maizels and Gause review advances in type 2 immunity in the setting of helminth worm infections, in the skin, lung, and in...
Stalled but not forgotten: Bacterial exotoxins inhibit translation to activate NLRP1
In this issue of JEM, companion articles from Pinilla et al. and Robinson et al. demonstrate that ribotoxic stress induced...
EEF2-inactivating toxins engage the NLRP1 inflammasome and promote epithelial barrier disruption
Here, Pinilla and colleagues address the ability of the human NLRP1 inflammasome-forming sensor to detect translation inac...

Nina Cabezas Wallscheid is a group leader at the Max Planck Institute of Immunobiology and Epigenetics in Freiburg, German...
Women in STEM becoming independent: Great mentors make all the difference
In this Viewpoint, we hear from a cross section of women, across multiple research fields, discussing their science and th...
PD-1 blockade and CDK4/6 inhibition augment nonoverlapping features of T cell activation in cancer
The authors use single-cell RNA-sequencing and TCR tracking to analyze blood and tumors from breast and ovarian cancer pat...
Immune-interacting lymphatic endothelial subtype at capillary terminals drives lymphatic malformation
Petkova et al. identify a new Ptx3-positive immune-interacting subtype of lymphatic endothelial cells, iLECs, that drive o...
Myeloid-like B cells boost emergency myelopoiesis through IL-10 production during infection
Collaboration between myeloid and lymphoid lineages on hematopoiesis has not been fully elucidated. Here, we showed that d...
Macrophages promote anti-androgen resistance in prostate cancer bone disease
New mechanism of macrophage-driven therapy resistance of metastatic prostate cancer with high ECM expression and SRC activ...
The genetic background shapes the susceptibility to mitochondrial dysfunction and NASH progression
Mice from different genetic backgrounds have widely diverse responses to the same metabolic challenges. Only PWK/PhJ mice ...
Macrophages and bone metastasis
Macrophages activate a cascade to drive anti-androgen therapy resistance in the prostate bone metastasis microenvironment.
Targeting type 2 immunity and the future of food allergy treatment
There is growing appreciation of the heterogeneity of type 2 immunity in food allergy and how type 2 cytokines from distin...
Tingible body macrophages: Gargantuan chameleons of the germinal center
Tingible body macrophages in lymph node clear apoptotic B cell debris. Gurwisz et al. and Grootveld et al. report how ting...
