Goblet cells use distinct receptors and signaling pathways to independently perform mucus secretion and endocytosis of fluid-phase cargo with atypical trafficking to deliver lumenal substances to the immune system.

Acyloxyacyl hydrolase, the host lipase that detoxifies bacterial lipopolysaccharides, also deacylates oxidized phospholipids, preventing inflammasome activation in macrophages in vitro and ameliorating acute lung injury in vivo.

Single-cell transcriptomics of intraocular infiltrate in human HLA-B27-associated active anterior uveitis shows a unique composition and phenotype of leukocytes preferentially affecting dendritic cells.

Sepsis leads to lasting changes in the composition of the pre-existing memory CD8 T cell compartment leading to altered localization, changes in their transcriptional landscape and chromatin accessibility, differential function, and reduced capacity to control infection.

In the absence of ABCB7, B cell development is halted at the pro-B cell stage and stimulated splenic B cells have impaired proliferation and reduced class switch recombination.

Tumor-infiltrating regulatory T cells are regulated by the immunoreceptor CD300a, which suppresses signals from tumor-derived extracellular vesicles.

A major Th1 cytokine IFN-γ mediates mitochondrial damage that leads to mTORC1 inhibition and Paneth cells death.

Antibody production upon vaccination requires antigen-specific T follicular helper cells whose formation can be suppressed by pro-inflammatory cytokine signalling.

IgH repertoires of physically sorted and bioinformatically selected B cell subpopulations overlap and are characterised by distinct repertoire characteristics, while certain repertoire features correlate with the position of the constant region on the IgH locus.

Regnase-1, an RNase suppressing proinflammatory mRNAs, interacts with 14-3-3, which diminishes cytokine mRNA recognition and the nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling of Regnase-1 under inflammatory conditions.
