A stepwise emergence of evolution in the RNA world
How did biological evolution emerge from chemical reactions? This perspective proposes a gradual scenario of self‐organization among RNA molecules, where catalytic feedback on random mixtures plays the central role. Short oligomers cross‐ligate, and self‐assembly enables heritable variations. An event of template‐externalization marks the transition to

Nuclear pore complex-mediated modulation of TCR signaling is required for naïve CD4+ T cell homeostasis. [PDF]
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are channels connecting the nucleus with the cytoplasm. We report that loss of the tissue-specific NPC component Nup210 causes a severe deficit of naïve CD4+ T cells.

B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

Cell-by-cell deciphering of T cells in allergic inflammation [PDF]
Technical advances in single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) render it possible to examine the transcriptomes of single cells in patients with allergic inflammation with high resolution in the context of their specific microenvironment, treatment, and disease status.

Proliferation tracing with single-cell mass cytometry optimizes generation of stem cell memory-like T cells. [PDF]
Selective differentiation of naive T cells into multipotent T cells is of great interest clinically for the generation of cell-based cancer immunotherapies. Cellular differentiation depends crucially on division state and time.

Immortalization of T-cells is accompanied by gradual changes in CpG methylation resulting in a profile resembling a subset of T-cell leukemias [PDF]
We have previously described gene expression changes during spontaneous immortalization of T-cells, thereby identifying cellular processes important for cell growth crisis escape and unlimited proliferation. Here, we analyze the same model to investigate

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Cell–cell and cell–matrix interactions
In this year's annual ASCB Meeting Minisymposium on Cell–Cell and Cell–Matrix Interactions, new data were presented on several aspects of the biology of cell adhesions. The role of cell adhesions in cancer was the topic of three of the talks, two of which were focused on identifying how invasion is affected by cell–matrix and cell–cell adhesions ...

The cell secretome, a mediator of cell-to-cell communication [PDF]
We are witnessing the emergence of a novel type of biological regulation, namely, the communication between cells via their secreted substances, the secretome. This brief overview is based on the available published data and our own experience. We discuss three vignettes illustrating the importance of communication via the secretome: (1) the secretome ...

Morphologic observations of human T and B lymphocytes by scanning electron microscopy [PDF]
T cell concerned with cell mediated immunity and B cell concerned with humoral antibody are classified by scanning electron microscopy of the surface structure of lymphocytes using E binding lymphocytes and EAC (sensitized sheep erythrocytes treated with
