Real time detection of neutrophil activation Discover a new method to assess neutrophil activation and oxidative burst with Agilent Seahorse XF technology. Simultaneous glycolytic (PER) and oxygen consumption (OCR) rate detection can dissect the interdependency of the two pathways that are required for neutrophil activation.

| | Reigning in RIG-I p357 Lucy Bird doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0018-2 | | | | Specificity for HCMV strains pp358 - 359 Kirsty Minton doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0010-x Strain-specific recognition of different UL40 peptides determines the proliferation and activation of NKG2C+ NK cells during HCMV infection. | | | | Microglial memory pp358 - 359 Lucy Bird doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0015-5 Microglial cells show innate immune memory of peripheral inflammatory stimuli that influences neurological disease pathology. | | | | γδ T cells turn up the heat p359 Grant Otto doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0017-3 γδ T cells have a crucial role in immune homeostasis and thermogenesis in adipose tissues through their production of IL-17A and TNF. | | | | Viral tropism for tuft cells pp360 - 361 Kirsty Minton doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0011-9 Norovirus infection of tuft cells in the intestinal epithelium can be promoted by type 2 cytokines. | | | | Itaconate charges down inflammation pp360 - 361 Yvonne Bordon doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0016-4 The metabolite itaconate induces electrophilic stress that induces an antioxidant response and regulates secondary TLR transcriptional responses and IL-17-driven pathology. | | | | The IFN road not taken p361 Yvonne Bordon doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0012-8 SAMHD1 promotes the degradation of nascent DNA strands to protect against aberrant activation of the pro-inflammatory cGAS–STING pathway by self DNA. | | | | | |

The full spectrum of human naive T cells pp363 - 373 Theo van den Broek, José A. M. Borghans & Femke van Wijk doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0001-y Evidence is increasing that naive T cells are heterogeneous in phenotype, function, dynamics and differentiation status. Here, van den Broek et al. provide a revised view of the naive T cell compartment and then discuss the implications for ageing, neonatal immunity and T cell reconstitution following haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. |

|
C-type lectins in immunity and homeostasis pp374 - 389 Gordon D. Brown, Janet A. Willment & Lauren Whitehead doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0004-8 Recently discovered roles for C-type lectins in development, homeostasis, cell death, cancer and autoimmune and inflammatory diseases extend the functions of this superfamily beyond their well-recognized involvement in antimicrobial responses. |

Nonhuman primate models of human viral infections pp390 - 404 Jacob D. Estes, Scott W. Wong & Jason M. Brenchley doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0005-7 Nonhuman primates (NHPs) are increasingly used as models of human viral infections. Here, Estes and colleagues introduce different NHP models, summarize the similarities and differences between human and NHP immune systems and discuss important examples of human viruses that can be modelled in NHPs. |

To respond or not to respond — a personal perspective of intestinal tolerance pp405 - 415 Allan McI. Mowat doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0002-x In this Timeline, Allan Mowat reflects on some of the key discoveries that have shaped our understanding of how immune tolerance towards environmental antigens, such as commensal bacteria and food proteins, develops and is maintained in the intestine. |
