REVIEWS

Top
Evolutionary conflicts between viruses and restriction factors shape immunity
Nisha K. Duggal & Michael Emerman
p687 | doi:10.1038/nri3295
The evolutionary 'arms race' between host restriction factors and viral antagonists has left a genetic 'signature' that can tell us much about the innate immune response to past and present viral infections.

Dietary influences on intestinal immunity
Marc Veldhoen & Verena Brucklacher-Waldert
p696 | doi:10.1038/nri3299
Dietary habits have always been associated with the robustness of the immune system. Here, the molecular links between dietary compounds and immune regulation in the intestine are discussed, with a focus on the central role of nuclear receptors.

Tools to therapeutically harness the human antibody response
Patrick C. Wilson & Sarah F. Andrews
p709 | doi:10.1038/nri3285
Here, Patrick Wilson and Sarah Andrews discuss the strategies that have been used to identify rare broadly neutralizing antibodies, focusing on the recent advances in isolating such antibodies naturally generated in response to HIV and influenza virus infection or vaccination.

PERSPECTIVES

Top
OPINION
Unconventional recognition of peptides by T cells and the implications for autoimmunity
James F. Mohan & Emil R. Unanue
p721 | doi:10.1038/nri3294
In this Opinion, the authors describe an unconventional form of peptide recognition that can allow potentially autoreactive CD4+ T cells to escape thymic regulation. They explain how these T cells respond to unstable peptide—MHC complexes that evade H2-DM-mediated editing, and they discuss the implications for autoimmunity.

VIEWPOINT
The impact of probiotics and prebiotics on the immune system
Todd R. Klaenhammer, Michiel Kleerebezem, Matthias Volkmar Kopp & Maria Rescigno
p728 | doi:10.1038/nri3312
Here, Nature Reviews Immunology asks four experts to share their thoughts on the ability of probiotics and prebiotics to modulate the immune system and influence disease. Can these products have a therapeutic application for inflammatory diseases?

SCIENCE AND SOCIETY
Consortium biology in immunology: the perspective from the Immunological Genome Project
Christophe Benoist, Lewis Lanier, Miriam Merad, Diane Mathis & the Immunological Genome Project
p734 | doi:10.1038/nri3300
What is the role and value of consortium biology in immunology? Here, the participants of the Immunological Genome Project share their thoughts on the benefits and shortcomings of 'big science' and discuss how the immunology community can profit from engaging in this type of discovery-led research.

Nature Outlook: Human Papillomavirus

It might have taken 30 years from identification of HPV as the cause of cervical cancer to the first vaccine reaching the market, but there is still much to understand about HPV biology and an urgent need to improve on existing vaccines and diagnostic tests.
