Training the Fetal Immune System Through Maternal Inflammation-A Layered Hygiene Hypothesis. [PDF]
Over the last century, the alarming surge in allergy and autoimmune disease has led to the hypothesis that decreasing exposure to microbes, which has accompanied industrialization and modern life in the Western world, has fundamentally altered the immune

Mucosal delivery of tuberculosis vaccines: a review of current approaches and challenges. [PDF]
Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major health threat and it is now clear that the current vaccine, BCG, is unable to arrest the global TB epidemic. A new vaccine is needed to either replace or boost BCG so that a better level of protection could

Therapeutic manipulation of innate lymphoid cells
Since their relatively recent discovery, innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) have been shown to be tissue-resident lymphocytes that are critical mediators of tissue homeostasis, regeneration, and pathogen response.

Beneficial autoimmunity at body surfaces – immune surveillance and rapid type 2 immunity regulate tissue homeostasis and cancer [PDF]
Epithelial cells line body surface tissues and provide a physicochemical barrier to the external environment. Frequent microbial and non-microbial challenges such as those imposed by mechanical disruption, injury or exposure to noxious environmental ...

Toxoplasma gondii infection drives conversion of NK cells into ILC1-like cells [PDF]
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) were originally classified based on their cytokine profiles, placing natural killer (NK) cells and ILC1s together, but recent studies support their separation into different lineages at steady-state.

Immunopathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the most common inflammatory arthropathy. The majority of evidence, derived from genetics, tissue analyses, models, and clinical studies, points to an immune-mediated etiology associated with stromal tissue dysregulation that

Immune checkpoints on innate lymphoid cells [PDF]
In this issue of JEM, Taylor et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20161653) describe PD-1 as a critical negative regulator of group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC-2s). PD-1 intrinsically controls proliferation and cytokine production of both mouse and human ILC-2s.

Inhibition of autophagy enhances the antitumor efficacy of T/CAR T cell against neuroblastoma
Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common extracranial solid tumor in children characterized by poor immune infiltration and resistance to adaptive immunity, contributing to its limited response to immunotherapy.
