T-bet marks contact-capable regulatory T cells embedded within Th1-dendritic cell networks in skin-draining lymph nodes

The paper identifies T-bet-expressing regulatory T cells (T-bet Tregs) as a stable regulatory subset within Th1-dendritic cell networks during type 1 inflammation.

Alternatively activated monocyte-derived myeloid cells promote extracellular pathogen persistence within pulmonary fungal granulomas.

This study identifies alternatively activated myeloid cells as drivers of extracellular fungal persistence in pulmonary granulomas through T helper 2 cell signaling.

Kupffer cell and recruited macrophage heterogeneity orchestrate granuloma maturation and hepatic immunity in visceral leishmaniasis

The paper shows that macrophage heterogeneity, including resKC-derived and monocyte-derived cells, is critical for granuloma maturation and parasite control in visceral leishmaniasis.
