    Regulation of inflammation and protection against invasive pneumococcal infection by the long pentraxin PTX3

    Rémi Porte, Rita Silva-Gomes ... Alberto Mantovani
    Long Pentaxin 3 is highly expressed by non-hematopoietic cells during Streptococcus pneumoniae invasive infections and regulates polymorphonuclear neutrophils' recruitment through interaction with P-selectin which damps inflammation-associated tissue damage and pneumococcal systemic dissemination.

    Neuron-associated macrophage proliferation in the sensory ganglia is associated with peripheral nerve injury-induced neuropathic pain involving CX3CR1 signaling

    Rafaela M Guimarães, Conceição E Aníbal-Silva ... Thiago M Cunha
    CX3CR1-signaling in sensory ganglia macrophages mediates their proliferation/activation, as well as the production of pro-inflammatory mediators that contribute to neuropathic pain.

    Cellular and molecular dynamics in the lungs of neonatal and juvenile mice in response to E. coli

    Sharon A McGrath-Morrow, Jarrett Venezia ... Alan L Scott
    A pre-clinical model of E. coli pneumonia reveals attenuated dynamics of MHCII-expressing mononuclear cells in neonatal lung associated with elevated susceptibility to bacterial pneumonia.

    The RNA helicase DDX39B activates FOXP3 RNA splicing to control T regulatory cell fate

    Minato Hirano, Gaddiel Galarza-Muñoz ... Mariano A Garcia-Blanco
    RNA processing regulates gene expression of the key transcription factor FOXP3 in T regulatory cells impacting immune tolerance and susceptibility to autoimmune disease.

    Oxygen levels at the time of activation determine T cell persistence and immunotherapeutic efficacy

    Pedro P Cunha, Eleanor Minogue ... Randall S Johnson
    Oxygen levels at the time of T cell activation are major determinants of function, even when T cells are subsequently expanded in high levels of oxygen.

    Immune mechanisms underlying COVID-19 pathology and post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC)

    Sindhu Mohandas, Prasanna Jagannathan ... RECOVER Mechanistic Pathways Task Force
    Immune dysregulation is thought to be a hallmark of long COVID or PASC but there is a need for understanding the underlying mechanisms which drive the disease progression.

    Statistical inference reveals the role of length, GC content, and local sequence in V(D)J nucleotide trimming

    Magdalena L Russell, Noah Simon ... Frederick A Matsen IV
    Local sequence context, length, and GC nucleotide content in both directions of the trimming site, together, are highly predictive of V(D)J trimming probabilities for both TR and IG adaptive immune receptor loci.

    Human DUX4 and mouse Dux interact with STAT1 and broadly inhibit interferon-stimulated gene induction

    Amy E Spens, Nicholas A Sutliff ... Stephen J Tapscott
    The developmental transcription factor DUX4 interacts with STAT1 and broadly suppresses expression of IFNγ-stimulated genes.
