    Metabolic support of trained immune responses in myeloid cells

    Aitor Jarit-Cabanillas, Gillian Dunphy ... David Sancho
    A review of literature regarding trained immunity (TI) differentiates two distinct stages of metabolic immune regulation, with primary metabolic changes influencing early epigenetic adaptations that drive TI induction and secondary metabolic adaptations providing building blocks required for enhanced immune function.

    Tracheal terminal cells of Drosophila are immune privileged to maintain their Foxo-dependent structural plasticity

    Judith Bossen, Larissa Fritz ... Thomas Roeder
    Terminal tracheal cells in Drosophila evade innate immune activation, revealing a fundamental trade-off in which suppression of canonical immune signaling preserves Foxo-dependent plasticity and sustains respiratory function.

    Deep mutational scanning reveals pharmacologically relevant insights into TYK2 signaling and disease

    Conor J Howard, Nathan S Abell ... Diane E Dickel
    A comprehensive mutational scan of TYK2 identifies novel allosteric sites, elucidates functional drug-protein interactions, and links autoimmune disease protection to reduced TYK2 protein abundance.
