    Extensive age-dependent loss of antibody diversity in naturally short-lived turquoise killifish

    William John Bradshaw, Michael Poeschla ... Dario Riccardo Valenzano
    Naturally short-lived turquoise killifish undergo systemic and mucosal spontaneous decline in antibody-repertoire diversity during aging, recapitulating in a few months the aging-dependent decline of adaptive immunity.

    Zinc finger protein Zfp335 controls early T-cell development and survival through β-selection-dependent and -independent mechanisms

    Xin Wang, Anjun Jiao ... Baojun Zhang
    Genetically modified mouse model and comprehensive analysis reveal the molecular mechanisms regulating early T-cell development through intracellular TCRβ expression-mediated β-selection and independent cell survival signaling.

    In vivo fluorescence lifetime imaging of macrophage intracellular metabolism during wound responses in zebrafish

    Veronika Miskolci, Kelsey E Tweed ... Anna Huttenlocher
    Lifetime imaging of endogenous metabolic coenzymes is sensitive to dynamic changes in macrophage activation in a live animal, providing a label-free imaging approach to study immunometabolism in vivo with single-cell, spatial, and temporal resolution.

    Nanoscale binding site localization by molecular distance estimation on native cell surfaces using topological image averaging

    Vibha Kumra Ahnlide, Johannes Kumra Ahnlide ... Pontus Nordenfelt
    A method to carefully measure the molecular distance between a site of interest and a reference surface by the repeated acquisition of the two image channels followed by the statistical calculation of the relative difference.

    Heparan sulfate-dependent RAGE oligomerization is indispensable for pathophysiological functions of RAGE

    Miaomiao Li, Chih Yean Ong ... Ding Xu
    Heparan sulfate-RAGE interaction is essential for normal function of RAGE in osteoclastogenesis and drug-induced liver damage, which can be targeted to curb RAGE activation as a new opportunity.

    m6A modifications regulate intestinal immunity and rotavirus infection

    Anmin Wang, Wanyiin Tao ... Shu Zhu
    RNA m6A level is dually regulated during RV infection and development, METTL3 deficiency in IECs results in increased resistance to rotaviral infection through reduced m6A modificaitons on Irf7.

    Thymocytes trigger self-antigen-controlling pathways in immature medullary thymic epithelial stages

    Noella Lopes, Nicolas Boucherit ... Magali Irla
    Self-reactive CD4+ thymocytes have a broad impact on the composition of medullary thymic epithelial cell (mTEC) subsets by acting upstream of Aire+ mTECs, which conditions the induction of T-cell tolerance.

    Hematodinium sp. infection does not drive collateral disease contraction in a crustacean host

    Charlotte E Davies, Jessica E Thomas ... Christopher J Coates
    Neither the presence nor the intensity of Hematodinium sp. parasitisation drives co-infection occurrence, severity, or diversity in the ecologically ubiquitous shore crab, Carcinus maenas.

    Homeostatic interferon-lambda response to bacterial microbiota stimulates preemptive antiviral defense within discrete pockets of intestinal epithelium

    Jacob A Van Winkle, Stefan T Peterson ... Timothy J Nice
    The enteric bacterial microbiota stimulates a highly localized interferon-lambda signal within the intestinal epithelium that protects against murine rotavirus infection.
