    Human B cell lineages associated with germinal centers following influenza vaccination are measurably evolving

    Kenneth B Hoehn, Jackson S Turner ... Steven H Kleinstein
    Influenza vaccination in humans stimulates novel B cell evolution that is detectable in germinal centers, but not the peripheral blood.

    Inflammasome activation leads to cDC1-independent cross-priming of CD8 T cells by epithelial cell-derived antigen

    Katherine A Deets, Randilea Nichols Doyle ... Russell E Vance
    A mouse model of inducible inflammasome activation in intestinal epithelial cells reveals separate inflammasome-dependent and -independent cross-presentation pathways for epithelial cell-derived antigen.

    SARS-CoV-2 spike protein induces inflammation via TLR2-dependent activation of the NF-κB pathway

    Shahanshah Khan, Mahnoush S Shafiei ... Hasan Zaki
    Recognition of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein by innate immune sensor TLR2 leads to the induction of inflammatory mediators and constitutes a mechanism for cytokine storm during COVID-19.

    Regulation of positive and negative selection and TCR signaling during thymic T cell development by capicua

    Soeun Kim, Guk-Yeol Park ... Yoontae Lee
    Deficiency of capicua, a transcription factor that suppresses autoimmunity, impairs positive and negative selection processes by attenuating TCR signaling in CD4+CD8+ double-positive thymocytes.

    Blood-brain barrier-restricted translocation of Toxoplasma gondii from cortical capillaries

    Gabriela C Olivera, Emily C Ross ... Antonio Barragan
    The invasion of Toxoplasma to the CNS across cortical capillaries is restricted by the integrity of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and exacerbated by the inflammatory response.

    In silico-labeled ghost cytometry

    Masashi Ugawa, Yoko Kawamura ... Sadao Ota
    Stain-free ‘imaging’ flow cytometry enables high-throughput cell classification and sorting based on machine-predicted labels.

    IL-2/JES6-1 mAb complexes dramatically increase sensitivity to LPS through IFN-γ production by CD25+Foxp3- T cells

    Jakub Tomala, Petra Weberova ... Marek Kovar
    Strong sustained IL-2 signal selective for CD25+ cells induces emergence of CD25+Foxp3- T cells producing IFN-γ in various organs causing enormous increase in the sensitivity to LPS.

    S-acylation by ZDHHC20 targets ORAI1 channels to lipid rafts for efficient Ca2+ signaling by Jurkat T cell receptors at the immune synapse

    Amado Carreras-Sureda, Laurence Abrami ... Nicolas Demaurex
    ORAI1 ion channel lipid modification is required for a proper immune synapse formation and T cell activation.

    Biallelic mutations in calcium release activated channel regulator 2A (CRACR2A) cause a primary immunodeficiency disorder

    Beibei Wu, Laura Rice ... Sinisa Savic
    Human CRACR2A insufficiency underlies progressive loss of immune competence by uncoupling TCR activation from Ca2+ and MAPK signaling and should be included within the group of combined immunodeficiency disorders in the IEI classification.
