A novel method predicts cancer and immune cell types from bulk tumor gene expression data with the ability to consider uncharacterized and possibly highly variable cell types, which is validated in human genome.

EPIC-ATAC accurately quantifies cell-type heterogeneity in tumor bulk ATAC-Seq samples using reliable cell-type specific chromatin accessibility markers for the major cell types found in tumor microenvironments.
Dermal preadipocytes produce T cell chemokines in response to IFNγ, driving the recruitment and activation of type 1 effector T cells in allergic contact dermatitis.
Intermittent fasting affects intestinal immunity through new interactions between macrophages and ILC3s, increasing ILC3 secretion of IL-22 and thus promoting white adipose tissue beigeing, and improving metabolism.
Identification of human DNA sites differentially methylated with aging across six different primary immune cells suggests that the sensing of hypoxia drives the epigenetic clock.

Penetration of the fluoroquinolones in tuberculosis lesions is heterogeneous even in fully cellular areas, is driven by macrophage content and decreases as the distance from lesion outer rim increases.

CRISPR/Cas9 screens reveal a role for the ubiquitin ligase substrate adaptor DCAF15 in the immune surveillance of cancer cells by natural killer cells.

A systematic optimization of intestinal digestion protocols allows for the isolation and high-dimensional flow cytometric analysis of intestinal immune cells during murine helminth infection.
