| Researchers reported that patients with autosomal recessive NIK or RELB deficiency, or a specific type of autosomal-dominant NF-κB2 deficiency, also have neutralizing autoantibodies against type I interferons. [Nature] |

|
| To deconstruct the cell states and pathways that characterized this pathogenic heterogeneity, scientists profiled the full spectrum of cells in inflamed synovium from patients with rheumatoid arthritis. [Nature] |
|
|
|
| Using single-cell RNA/T cell receptor/BCR-seq with protein feature barcoding, the authors profiled 317 samples from 166 healthy individuals aged 25–85 years old. [Immunity] |
|
|
|
| Scientists showed that deletion of ST2, the receptor for interleukin (IL)-33, on Treg cells increased granulocyte influx into the lung and increased cytokine production by innate lymphoid and γδ T cells without alteration of adaptive immunity to influenza. [Nature Immunology] |
|
|
|
| Researchers found that, in addition to triggering SIRPα, CD47 suppressed phagocytosis by a SIRPα-independent mechanism. [Nature Immunology] |
|
|
|
| By employing CD16 as a donor selection biomarker, investigators harnessed Vδ2 T cells characterized by heightened cytotoxicity and potent antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity functionality. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| The authors developed a suite of mathematical tools to search for statistically significant co-locations amongst immune and structural cells identified using 37-plex imaging mass cytometry. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Researchers employed deep immune profiling and T cell receptor sequencing and examined proliferation to assess how antiretroviral therapy impacted T cell homeostasis. [Cell Reports Medicine] |
|
|
|
| Scientists reported results from a multi-omic analysis of a large, real-world melanoma cohort. Melanoma brain metastases exhibited lower interferon-gamma scores and T cell-inflamed scores compared to primary cutaneous melanoma or extracranial metastases. [npj Precision Oncology] |
|
|
|
| Researchers used single-nuclei RNA sequencing to study transcriptomic changes in different cell populations in human brain tissue obtained acutely after severe, life-threatening traumatic brain injury. [Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| Investigators assessed the potential of an oncolytic adenovirus expressing a variant interleukin-2 (vIL-2) cytokine, Ad5/3-E2F-d24-vIL2, also known as TILT-452, to enhance NK cell therapy efficacy in human ovarian cancer ex vivo. [Cancer Gene Therapy] |
|  |
|
|
|
| Scientists comprehensively discuss the basis behind the tumoral dysregulation of cellular stress-immunity cycle. [Immunological Reviews] |

|
|
| Article-processing charges (APC) levied by publishers on authors have become an integral — and sometimes unpopular — part of the open-access revolution. Other options are being explored. [Nature] |
