RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS

Top

Dendritic cells: TLR agonists trigger rapid metabolic changes
p209 | doi:10.1038/nri3652
A rapid TLR-induced increase in the rate of glycolysis is crucial for the activation of dendritic cells.
PDF


Regulatory T cells: Mind control
p210 | doi:10.1038/nri3643
IFNβ induces a novel population of FOXA1+ regulatory T cells in the CNS.
PDF


Antiviral immunity: Editing HLA-E expression
p210 | doi:10.1038/nri3647
Human cytomegalovirus infection induces microRNA editing, which leads to decreased HLA-E expression by, and increased NK cell-mediated killing of, infected cells.
PDF


Innate immune signalling: TIRAP diversifies the sites of TLR signalling
p211 | doi:10.1038/nri3645
Promiscuous lipid binding by the sorting adaptor TIRAP regulates TLR signalling from distinct subcellular locations.
PDF


Tumour immunology: Inflaming tumour spread

Ultraviolet radiation-induced neutrophilic inflammation promotes melanoma metastasis.
PDF


Immunogenetics: Tracking immune activity across the genome
p212 | doi:10.1038/nri3653
Two new studies link human genetic variants with the innate immune response to infection.
PDF


Innate lymphoid cells: Support for indie B cells
p213 | doi:10.1038/nri3644
Innate lymphoid cells enhance innate-like B cell responses in the spleen.

REVIEWS

Top
Pathological pain and the neuroimmune interface
Peter M. Grace, Mark R. Hutchinson, Steven F. Maier & Linda R. Watkins
p217 | doi:10.1038/nri3621
Here, the authors describe the immune mechanisms that are involved in pain, one of the key features of inflammation. They explain how the immune and nervous systems interact to initiate and propagate pain, and discuss the immune components that can be targeted for alleviating pathological pain in patients.

Leukocyte migration in the interstitial space of non-lymphoid organs
Wolfgang Weninger, Maté Biro & Rohit Jain
p232 | doi:10.1038/nri3641
This Review follows neutrophils and T cells as they journey from the blood into tissues in search of sites of infection or injury. It highlights the mediators, which form temporally and spatially coordinated gradients within the tissues, and the mechanisms, including physical structures, that guide this directional migration.

The production and regulation of IgE by the immune system
Lawren C. Wu & Ali A. Zarrin
p247 | doi:10.1038/nri3632
IgE provides protective immunity against helminths, but is also involved in the pathogenesis of allergic diseases. In this Review, Wu and Zarrin discuss recent studies using different IgE reporter mice, as well as other genetically modified mice, that have provided new insights on the cells and pathways involved in the production and regulation of IgE, and highlight the areas in need of additional studies.

PERSPECTIVES

OPINION
New roles for cyclin-dependent kinases in T cell biology: linking cell division and differentiation
Andrew D. Wells & Peter A. Morawski
p261 | doi:10.1038/nri3625
Three models have been proposed to explain the link between T cell division and differentiation — epigenetic changes, asymmetric division and the direct regulation of gene expression by cell cycle factors. In support of the third model, this Opinion article describes cell cycle-independent roles for the cyclin-dependent kinases as regulators of immunologically relevant transcription factors.

INNOVATION
Democratizing systems immunology with modular transcriptional repertoire analyses
Damien Chaussabel & Nicole Baldwin
p271 | doi:10.1038/nri3642
Systems biology approaches have revolutionized many fields, including immunology, but analysing and interpreting such large-scale datasets is challenging. Here, the authors describe a novel approach that has been developed to address this issue. It relies on the grouping of co-dependent genes into 'modules', which are then used to build 'fingerprints' that can simplify the analysis of large-scale datasets.
