Microbiota during early life windows orchestrates intestinal maturation and barrier formation in the offspring

This study shows that maternal and postnatal microbiota influence intestinal epithelial maturation and barrier formation through epigenetic and transcriptional mechanisms in offspring.

Periweaning diet-induced activation of an IFNγ-mediated regulatory circuit promotes the homeostasis of cytotoxic CD8+ T Cells

The paper shows that periweaning diet activates an IFNγ-mediated circuit in cDC1 that promotes effector memory CD8 T cell homeostasis through immunogenic maturation.

Neonatal liver niches program T cell tolerance

The paper identifies a neonatal liver program that expands regulatory T cells while limiting conventional T cell activation, influencing susceptibility to viral infections and protection against liver disease.

Low abundant intestinal commensals modulate immune control of chronic myeloid leukemia stem cells

This study identifies Sutterella wadsworthensis as a low-abundant intestinal commensal that suppresses anti-leukemia immune responses in chronic myeloid leukemia.

Component specific responses of the microbiomes to common chemical stressors in the human food chain

This study examines how chemical stressors affect microbiomes across different food chain components, finding component-specific responses and shifts in microbial composition and stability.
