Muse™ Cell Analyzer — Simple, Accurate, Affordable

We've miniaturized flow cytometry and packed 3-parameter analysis into a compact, affordable instrument, making quantitative cell analysis accessible to everyone. The system delivers high-performance cell analysis using a microcapillary and miniaturized optics which occupy one-tenth the space of a typical cytometers.

Life at the beginning: perturbation of the microbiota by antibiotics in early life and its role in health and disease   pp307 - 310
Sebastian Zeissig and Richard S Blumberg
doi:10.1038/ni.2847
This Commentary discusses how treatment with antibiotics in infancy shapes host immunity and influences susceptibility later in life to diseases mediated by the immune system.

POP goes the inflammasome   pp311 - 313
Jayendra Kumar Krishnaswamy, Dong Liu and Stephanie C Eisenbarth
doi:10.1038/ni.2848
The PYRIN domain-only protein POP3 sets limits for activation of the AIM2 inflammasome after cytosolic double-stranded DNA is sensed.

ILCs in the zone   pp313 - 314
Gabriel D Victora
doi:10.1038/ni.2854
Innate lymphoid cells, marginal reticular cells and B cell-helper neutrophils interact to promote antibody secretion by B cells in the marginal zone of the spleen in humans and mice.

Glycolytic reprogramming by TLRs in dendritic cells   pp314 - 315
Luke A J O'Neill
doi:10.1038/ni.2852
The activation of dendritic cells by Toll-like receptors leads to a rapid enhancement in glycolysis. Glucose is metabolized to pyruvate and from there to citrate in the mitochondria, which leads ultimately to membrane biosynthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi to support the activation of dendritic cells.

Coincidence detection of antibodies and interferon for sensing microbial context   pp316 - 317
Marc Daëron and Eric Vivier
doi:10.1038/ni.2851
Functional coupling of receptors for immunoglobulin G (FcγRI) and interferon-γ (IFN-γR) generates a context-dependent signaling pathway in macrophages.

Vaccines that stimulate T cell immunity to HIV-1: the next step   pp319 - 322
Andrew J McMichael and Wayne C Koff
doi:10.1038/ni.2844
Recent findings in the SIV-monkey model provide new evidence that stimulating effective CD8+ T cell immunity could provide protection. McMichael and Koff explore the path forward for optimizing such responses in humans.

TLR-driven early glycolytic reprogramming via the kinases TBK1-IKKε supports the anabolic demands of dendritic cell activation   pp323 - 332
Bart Everts, Eyal Amiel, Stanley Ching-Cheng Huang, Amber M Smith, Chih-Hao Chang et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.2833
Activation of dendritic cells induces a metabolic switch from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis. Pearce and colleagues show TLR signaling rapidly induces glycolysis by activating a TBK1-IKKε-Akt-HK-II kinase cascade to support the fatty acid synthesis required for the activation of dendritic cells.

A role for the ITAM signaling module in specifying cytokine-receptor functions   pp333 - 342
Jelena S Bezbradica, Rachel K Rosenstein, Richard A DeMarco, Igor Brodsky and Ruslan Medzhitov
doi:10.1038/ni.2845
How the generation of outcomes specific to external cues is achieved by a small number of signal-transduction pathways remains unclear. Medzhitov and colleagues describe a mechanism for signal integration based on coupling of the ITAM and Jak-STAT signaling pathways.

The PYRIN domain-only protein POP3 inhibits ALR inflammasomes and regulates responses to infection with DNA viruses   pp343 - 353
Sonal Khare, Rojo A Ratsimandresy, Lúcia de Almeida, Carla M Cuda, Stephanie L Rellick et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.2829
Much is known about the activation of inflammasomes, but less is known about their negative regulation. Stehlik and colleagues demonstrate that the pyrin domain-only protein POP3 negatively regulates inflammasomes involved in sensing DNA.

Innate lymphoid cells integrate stromal and immunological signals to enhance antibody production by splenic marginal zone B cells   pp354 - 364
Giuliana Magri, Michio Miyajima, Sabrina Bascones, Arthur Mortha, Irene Puga et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.2830
Marginal zone B cells provide rapid antibody responses to blood-borne antigens. Cerutti and colleagues identify a RORγt-dependent innate lymphoid cell subset that establishes crosstalk among multiple cell types to enhance antibody responses.

Early specification of CD8+ T lymphocyte fates during adaptive immunity revealed by single-cell gene-expression analyses   pp365 - 372
Janilyn Arsenio, Boyko Kakaradov, Patrick J Metz, Stephanie H Kim, Gene W Yeo et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.2842
How and when memory T cells emerge remains unresolved. Chang and colleagues use single-cell analyses to identify gene-expression signatures predictive of the eventual fates of individual CD8+ T cells during immune responses in vivo.

The transcription factor BATF operates as an essential differentiation checkpoint in early effector CD8+ T cells   pp373 - 383
Makoto Kurachi, R Anthony Barnitz, Nir Yosef, Pamela M Odorizzi, Michael A DiIorio et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.2834
The transcription factor BATF is required for differentiation of certain helper T cell subsets. Haining and colleagues show that BATF crucially regulates CD8+ effector cells by coordinating a transcription factor network.

Quantitative proteomics analysis of signalosome dynamics in primary T cells identifies the surface receptor CD6 as a Lat adaptor-independent TCR signaling hub   pp384 - 392
Romain Roncagalli, Simon Hauri, Fréderic Fiore, Yinming Liang, Zhi Chen et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.2843
TCR ligation triggers the activation of multiple downstream signaling modules. Malissen and colleagues use quantitative proteomics to identify a Lat-independent TCR-CD6-SLP-76-Zap70 signalosome after TCR stimulation.

Negative regulation of Hif1a expression and TH17 differentiation by the hypoxia-regulated microRNA miR-210   pp393 - 401
Haopeng Wang, Henrik Flach, Michio Onizawa, Lai Wei, Michael T McManus et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.2846
Hypoxia stabilizes the transcription factor HIF-1α, which promotes TH17 polarization. Weiss and colleagues show that miR-210 mediates a negative feedback regulatory loop that diminishes HIF-1α abundance under hypoxic conditions.
