A second wind for leukemic lungs

2026-07-20

P. Brent Ferrell

Nature Immunology, Published online: 20 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41590-026-02598-0 Single-cell and spatial analyses of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in the lung reveal an inflamed and remodeled microenvironment. These findings demonstrate that corticosteroids or antibodies that target galectin-9 or IL-33 reduce leukemic infiltration and restore respiratory function.]]>

Exhausted CD8 + T cell subsets differ a TAD

2026-07-06

Maegan K. Murphy

Nature Immunology, Published online: 06 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41590-026-02583-7 Lineage choices that maintain and diversify exhausted CD8+ T cells under chronic antigen exposure are driven by epigenetic rewiring. CTCF-mediated spatial chromatin reorganization is shown to regulate subset-specific architecture and gene expression programs, guiding differentiation of stem-like and effector exhausted CD8+ T cells.]]>

The sooner you boost the better

2026-06-23

William O. Hahn

Nature Immunology, Published online: 23 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41590-026-02567-7 Rapid sequential heterologous immunization schedule enhances B cell maturation in germinal centers, relative to conventionally spaced vaccination regimens.]]>

A monogenic basis for pyoderma gangrenosum due to dysregulation of linear ubiquitin

2026-06-23

Nature Immunology, Published online: 23 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41590-026-02575-7 We report a new inborn error of immunity, termed OTULIN-related pyoderma gangrenosum (ORP). ORP is caused by homozygosity for the R57C mutation, a separation-of-function variant in OTULIN that disrupts its interaction with, and regulation of, the linear ubiquitination assembly complex while preserving its catalytic activity. ORP features inflammasome activation and increased susceptibility of dermal cells to TNF-dependent death, pointing to TNF blockade as a therapeutic option.]]>

When regulators become helpers

2026-06-22

Michelle J. Boyle

Nature Immunology, Published online: 22 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41590-026-02564-w Memory regulatory T cells can shed their suppressive identity and become T follicular helper-like effector cells during recurrent malaria, identifying an unexpected mechanism that links immune regulation with protective humoral immunity.]]>

Fate induction through asymmetric T cell division is modulated by chimeric antigen receptor costimulatory domains

2026-06-22

Caitlin S. Frazee

Nature Immunology, Published online: 22 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41590-026-02548-w Asymmetric cell division is thought to affect chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell efficacy owing to distinct CAR T daughter cell effector and memory T cell fates. Here the authors show how the costimulatory domain of the CAR T cell can affect this process.]]>

Costimulation drives CAR-T cell division fate

2026-06-22

Adeleye O. Adeshakin

Nature Immunology, Published online: 22 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41590-026-02559-7 Asymmetric cell division can result in functionally distinct CAR-T cells. Data now indicate that this asymmetry is an early ‘program selector’ that can explain why 4-1BBζ CAR-T cells preferentially generate durable memory progeny whereas CD28ζ CAR-T cells skew toward short-lived effector fates.]]>

Breaking the upper limit of mTEC heterogeneity

2026-06-12

Ryunosuke Muro

Nature Immunology, Published online: 12 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41590-026-02562-y The identification of an alveolar epithelial-like subset of medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs) reveals a key mechanism that orchestrates mTEC heterogeneity, thereby maintaining central immune tolerance.]]>

Blood vessel-resident macrophages safeguard blood and vessel integrity in zebrafish

2026-03-31

Bart Weijts, Jeroen A. A. Demmers, Catherine Robin

Nature Immunology, Published online: 31 March 2026; doi:10.1038/s41590-026-02481-y Robin and colleagues describe a population of blood vessel-resident macrophages that function within the vasculature to maintain vascular and blood homeostasis in zebrafish and identify a conserved population of these cells in mice.

Solving the puzzle of CD8 T cell positive selection

2026-03-30

Juan Carlos Zúñiga-Pflücker, Anton Dobrin

Nature Immunology, Published online: 30 March 2026; doi:10.1038/s41590-026-02476-9 A study shows that the unique pMHC repertoire of cortical thymic epithelial cells is crucial for the differentiation of cytotoxic CD8+ T cells, providing the TCR signaling disruption needed as thymocytes move into the medulla, where a different pMHC set is encountered.
