Salivary factor LTRIN from Aedes aegypti facilitates the transmission of Zika virus by interfering with the lymphotoxin-β receptor pp342 - 353 Lin Jin, Xiaomin Guo, Chuanbin Shen, Xue Hao, Peng Sun et al. doi:10.1038/s41590-018-0063-9 Mosquito salivary-gland extract can modulate the host immune response. Qi and colleagues show that the salivary factor LTRIN from Aedes aegypti facilitates the transmission of Zika virus by interfering with the lymphotoxin-β receptor. |

IL-17-receptor-associated adaptor Act1 directly stabilizes mRNAs to mediate IL-17 inflammatory signaling pp354 - 365 Tomasz Herjan, Lingzi Hong, Jodi Bubenik, Katarzyna Bulek, Wen Qian et al. doi:10.1038/s41590-018-0071-9 Act1 is an adaptor protein that associates with the IL-17 receptor at the cell membrane. Li and colleagues show that Act1 also exhibits unexpected RNA-binding activity and directly stabilizes select mRNAs encoding inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. |

A tumor–myeloid cell axis, mediated via the cytokines IL-1α and TSLP, promotes the progression of breast cancer pp366 - 374 Emma L. Kuan & Steven F. Ziegler doi:10.1038/s41590-018-0066-6 Tumor cells commonly manipulate their environment to ensure their survival. Kuan and Ziegler show that breast cancer cells release IL-1α, which acts on infiltrating myeloid cells to elicit their production of TSLP. In turn, TSLP promotes the survival of TSLPR+ tumor cells by upregulating expression of the pro-survival factor Bcl-2. |

Environmental allergens induce allergic inflammation through proteolytic maturation of IL-33 pp375 - 385 Corinne Cayrol, Anais Duval, Pauline Schmitt, Stephane Roga, Mylène Camus et al. doi:10.1038/s41590-018-0067-5 The cytokine IL-33 has major roles in type 2 immunity and allergy. Girard and colleagues demonstrate that a broad range of allergens across multiple kingdoms can directly cleave IL-33 via their intrinsic protease activity and convert it into a highly active processed form. |

Recognition of microbial viability via TLR8 drives TFH cell differentiation and vaccine responses pp386 - 396 Matteo Ugolini, Jenny Gerhard, Sanne Burkert, Kristoffer Jarlov Jensen, Philipp Georg et al. doi:10.1038/s41590-018-0068-4 Sander and colleagues show that antigen-presenting cells detect bacterial RNA from live bacteria via TLR8 and promote TFH cell differentiation and vaccine responses through the induction of a specific cytokine profile. |

T cell autoreactivity directed toward CD1c itself rather than toward carried self lipids pp397 - 406 Kwok S. Wun, Josephine F. Reijneveld, Tan-Yun Cheng, Kristin Ladell, Adam P. Uldrich et al. doi:10.1038/s41590-018-0065-7 CD1 molecules present diverse lipid ligands to TCRs expressed by NKT cells. Rossjohn, Moody and colleagues show a unique form of autoreactivity with human CD1c molecules, whereby TCRs recognize a closed conformation of CD1c molecules, which are loaded with a diverse array of ‘headless’ glycolipids. |

Regulation of age-associated B cells by IRF5 in systemic autoimmunity pp407 - 419 Michela Manni, Sanjay Gupta, Edd Ricker, Yurii Chinenov, Sung Ho Park et al. doi:10.1038/s41590-018-0056-8 A unique subset of T-bet-expressing B cells accumulates with aging and in autoimmunity. Pernis and colleagues show that dysregulation of the transcription factor IRF5 occurs after loss of the Rho GTPase–regulatory proteins DEF6 and SWAP-70 and leads to the premature generation of age-associated B cells. |
