Serum nutritional-metabolic recovery during tuberculosis treatment across BMI-defined undernutrition strata: A longitudinal proteomic reanalysis

Reuben S. Maghembe, Vesla I. Kullaya, Ritah Francis Mutagonda…·Scott Kirkland Heysell

This study reanalyzes longitudinal serum proteomics data from tuberculosis patients to assess how nutritional-metabolic recovery during treatment varies by baseline BMI, finding no significant BMI-dependent trajectories but an overall increase in a 36-protein summary axis.

Distinct transcriptional remodeling of immune and metabolic pathways in severe undernutrition during latent tuberculosis infection does not consistently predict tuberculosis progression across independent cohorts

Reuben S. Maghembe, Vesla I. Kullaya, Peter M. Mbelele…·Sana Syed

The paper examines transcriptional changes in severe undernutrition during latent TB infection and finds inconsistent associations with TB progression across cohorts.

Human Neonatal MR1T Cells Have Diverse TCR Usage, are Less Cytotoxic and are Unable to Respond to Many Common Childhood Pathogens.

Dylan C. Kain, Wael Awad, GW McElfresh…·Deborah A. Lewinsohn

This study compares neonatal and adult MR1T cells, finding neonatal cells have diverse TCR usage, reduced cytotoxicity, and limited pathogen recognition.
