Regulatory mechanisms in T cell receptor signalling pp485 - 497 Guillaume Gaud, Renaud Lesourne & Paul E. Love doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0020-8 This Review discusses the latest insights into the mechanisms regulating T cell receptor (TCR) signalling responses. In particular, the authors focus on how TCR signalling is regulated during thymocyte selection and during T cell homeostasis. |

Integrating oncolytic viruses in combination cancer immunotherapy pp498 - 513 Praveen K. Bommareddy, Megha Shettigar & Howard L. Kaufman doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0014-6 Oncolytic viruses can target multiple steps in the cancer–immunity cycle and can be engineered to express therapeutic genes and, as a result, can be usefully integrated in combination tumour immunotherapies. Here, the authors discuss features of oncolytic viruses that make them appealing agents for combination approaches in cancer immunotherapy. |

Diverse developmental pathways of intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes pp514 - 525 Benjamin D. McDonald, Bana Jabri & Albert Bendelac doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0013-7 The intestine harbours a complex array of intraepithelial lymphocytes that patrol the epithelial layer and exert rapid cytolytic function. Here, the authors compare the different cytolytic populations and suggest that this diversity results from evolutionary pressure to protect this important barrier. |

An early history of T cell-mediated cytotoxicity pp527 - 535 Pierre Golstein & Gillian M. Griffiths doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0009-3 This Timeline looks back at the past 60 years of fundamental research into the mechanisms of T cell-mediated cytotoxicity, which has culminated in recent interest in the therapeutic manipulation of cytotoxic T cell responses for cancer immunotherapy. |
