This study uses in vivo single-cell analysis to show that type I IFN signaling and NK cells limit MHV68 infection in lymph nodes, with IFNAR deficiency increasing infected B cell numbers and NK cell depletion enhancing viral spread.

This study maps the aging trajectories of human γδ T cells using single-cell transcriptomics, revealing non-linear aging with distinct childhood transitions and stability in adulthood.

The paper examines the association between CMV-specific effector T cell subtypes, age, CMV serostatus, and systolic blood pressure in an elderly cohort.

This paper develops a novel murine ex vivo skin explant model to study HSV-1 infection and spread in intact skin, showing HSV-1 exclusively spreads in the epidermis through infected keratinocytes.

The paper profiles the immune system of elderly individuals and identifies systems-level signatures of aging, sex, smoking, and clinical traits using high-dimensional flow cytometry and multi-block analysis.
