This study compares innate immune responses to Victoria and Yamagata influenza B viruses, finding lineage-specific differences in immune kinetics, gene expression, and cellular tropism.

Immunopeptidomics shows HLA-A*33:01 and HLA-A*33:03 present largely distinct influenza peptide repertoires, and four HLA-A*33:03-restricted epitopes triggered CD8+ T cell responses in A/H5N1-naive donors.

The paper investigates how immune responses to infection affect peripheral sympathetic neuron functions, finding that cytokines and interferons alter nerve growth and neuron excitability.

This study identifies changes in CD4+ T cell surface proteins and transcriptomes during pregnancy, highlighting perturbations in the IL-6/IL-6R axis and RUNX3 expression.

This study identifies atypical B cell markers associated with influenza vaccine non-responsiveness and severe infection using single-cell transcriptomics.

The paper identifies transcriptional modules and cytokine signaling pathways that drive functional heterogeneity in T follicular helper cells across different infections.

This study develops a low-dose murine model of Mycobacterium ulcerans infection to analyze immune responses and identifies key cell types involved in disease progression.
