    Meningeal lymphatic drainage promotes T cell responses against Toxoplasma gondii but is dispensable for parasite control in the brain

    Michael A Kovacs, Maureen N Cowan ... Tajie H Harris
    In the setting of CNS infection, meningeal lymphatic drainage promotes dendritic cell and T cell responses in the deep cervical lymph nodes but is not necessary for maintaining control of parasite in the brain.

    Bronchus-associated macrophages efficiently capture and present soluble inhaled antigens and are capable of local Th2 cell activation

    Xin-Zi Tang, Lieselotte S M Kreuk ... Christopher D C Allen
    Lung interstitial macrophages are strategically positioned underneath the bronchial airway epithelium and enriched at airway bifurcations for immunosurveillance of the conducting airway lumen and the initiation of adaptive immune responses.

    Zebrafish fin regeneration involves generic and regeneration-specific osteoblast injury responses

    Ivonne Sehring, Hossein Falah Mohammadi ... Gilbert Weidinger
    Osteoblast dedifferentiation and migration are injury responses that are differentially regulated and independent of regenerative bone formation.

    De novo-designed transmembrane domains tune engineered receptor functions

    Assaf Elazar, Nicholas J Chandler ... Sarel J Fleishman
    Designer transmembrane peptides precisely control chimeric antigen receptor signaling strength and are insulated from undesired interactions with endogenous receptors.

    Structural insights into recognition of chemokine receptors by Staphylococcus aureus leukotoxins

    Paul Lambey, Omolade Otun ... Cédric Leyrat
    Experimentally validated structural models of ACKR1-LukE and CCR5-LukE complexes reveal the critical contributions of sulfotyrosine binding sites and divergent loops of Staphylococcus aureus leukotoxins to the recognition of chemokine receptors.

    Macrophage network dynamics depend on haptokinesis for optimal local surveillance

    Neil Paterson, Tim Lämmermann
    Macrophages use integrin-dependent 3D movement and cell protrusiveness, which control cell motility and space exploration as a prerequisite for optimal clearance of particles and dead cells by macrophage networks.

    Subventricular zone/white matter microglia reconstitute the empty adult microglial niche in a dynamic wave

    Lindsay A Hohsfield, Allison R Najafi ... Kim N Green
    In an empty microglial niche, repopulating microglia arise from subventricular zone and white matter-associated areas without contributions from the bone marrow to fill the mouse brain via a spreading wave.

    Adipsin promotes bone marrow adiposity by priming mesenchymal stem cells

    Nicole Aaron, Michael J Kraakman ... Li Qiang
    Adipsin, the oldest known adipokine, has a novel role as a a regulator of bone marrow fat and, consequently, overall bone health.

    The allosteric modulation of complement C5 by knob domain peptides

    Alex Macpherson, Maisem Laabei ... Jean MH van den Elsen
    Structural and functional analysis of a new class of low-molecular-weight antibody fragments, derived from bovine immunoglobulins, reveals their therapeutic potential against C5, a target for refractory inflammatory diseases.

    Seroconversion stages COVID19 into distinct pathophysiological states

    Matthew D Galbraith, Kohl T Kinning ... Joaquín M Espinosa
    Stratification of COVID19 patients using quantitative metrics of seroconversion reveals distinct pathophysiological stages after SARS-CoV-2 infection, including key differences in immune cell types, inflammatory makers, and markers of organ function.
