AbstractLegal provisions that protect elected politicians from prosecution have been common throughout history and still exist in most democracies. We provide the first systematic measurement of immunity and study, theoretically and empirically, its relation to corruption. Theory predicts that immunity is a double‐edged sword.

The Role of Capsid in the Early Steps of HIV-1 Infection: New Insights into the Core of the Matter
In recent years, major advances in research and experimental approaches have significantly increased our knowledge on the role of the HIV-1 capsid in the virus life cycle, from reverse transcription to integration and gene expression.

Induction and in Vitro demonstration of cellular immunity to DNA and RNA viruses in guinea-pigs [PDF]
Guinea-pigs were immunized with different cells infected with vaccinia virus, herpes simplex virus type 1, herpesvirus saimiri, and the virus of vesicular stomatitis. Development of cellular immunity against these viruses was observed with transformation

Exploring the pre-immune landscape of antigen-specific T cells
Background Adaptive immune responses to newly encountered pathogens depend on the mobilization of antigen-specific clonotypes from a vastly diverse pool of naive T cells.

'Towards a Conceptual Framework for Innate Immunity' [PDF]
Innate immunity now occupies a central role in immunology. However, artificial immune system models have largely been inspired by adaptive not innate immunity.

Malaria, Immunity, and Immunopathology
Malaria is a disease spread by mosquitoes, and it is a major global cause of morbidity and mortality. Most of the deaths in malaria are caused by the Apicomplexan parasite Plasmodium falciparum.

Methotrexate suppresses psoriatic skin inflammation by inhibiting muropeptide transporter SLC46A2 activity [PDF]
Cytosolic innate immune sensing is critical for protecting barrier tissues. NOD1 and NOD2 are cytosolic sensors of small peptidoglycan fragments (muropeptides) derived from the bacterial cell wall.

Plasma B cells (PC) are a potential source for protein replacement as they could be engineered to secrete protein other than antibody. Here the authors engineer B cells to express exogenous proteins and demonstrate that these cells can persist long term ...
