TIAger: Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocyte Scoring in Breast Cancer for the TiGER Challenge [PDF]
The quantification of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) has been shown to be an independent predictor for prognosis of breast cancer patients. Typically, pathologists give an estimate of the proportion of the stromal region that contains TILs to obtain a TILs score.

RNA editing generates cellular subsets with diverse sequence within populations
RNA editing rate detected from bulk RNA-seq data can vary widely. Here, by constructing a hierarchical Bayesian model, the authors report substantial variance in editing signatures detected by RNA-seq data from both single cells and a cognate bulk sample.

Cell polarity regulators, multifunctional organizers of lymphocyte activation and function
Cell polarity regulators are ubiquitous, evolutionary conserved multifunctional proteins. They contain a variety of protein–protein interaction domains endowing them the capacity to interact with cytoskeleton structures, membrane components and multiple ...

The success of most vaccines relies on the generation of antibodies to provide protection against subsequent infection; this in turn depends on a robust germinal centre (GC) response that culminates in the production of long-lived antibody-secreting ...

Treatments to limit T cell activation are essential for managing autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. The B subunit of Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin (EtxB) is known to ameliorate inflammatory disease in vivo but the mechanism by which this ...

Flow cytometry allows the simultaneous quantification of many markers in and on a cell, but the analysis of such data is complicated. Here, the authors propose AutoSpill, a framework that facilitates the analysis of such data by automating parts of the ...

New Insights into Epigenetic Regulation of T Cell Differentiation
Immature CD4− CD8− thymocytes progress through several developmental steps in the thymus, ultimately emerging as mature CD4+ (helper) or CD8+ (cytotoxic) T cells.

LYSTO: The Lymphocyte Assessment Hackathon and Benchmark Dataset [PDF]
We introduce LYSTO, the Lymphocyte Assessment Hackathon, which was held in conjunction with the MICCAI 2019 Conference in Shenzen (China). The competition required participants to automatically assess the number of lymphocytes, in particular T-cells, in histopathological images of colon, breast, and prostate cancer stained with CD3 and CD8 ...

The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity
TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since

Follicular Regulatory T Cells Can Access the Germinal Center Independently of CXCR5
Summary: The germinal center (GC) response is critical for generating high-affinity humoral immunity and immunological memory, which forms the basis of successful immunization. Control of the GC response is thought to require follicular regulatory T (Tfr)
