This study shows that 4-1BB signaling in T cells during influenza infection induces Prdm16, enhancing effector and memory CD8 T cell numbers through mitochondrial and metabolic pathways.

This study shows STING agonists enhance anti-tumor immunity by recruiting monocytic cells and inducing IFN-I responses, with IL-18 playing a key role in CD8 T cell activation.

This study identifies unconventionally primed TFH1 cells as essential for generating IgA+ long-lived plasma cells during mucosal viral infections.
