Research Highlights

 

TH9 cells tackle advanced tumours    p479
Alexandra Flemming
doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0032-4

Tumour decides immune cell ins and outs    p481
Grant Otto
doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0038-y

Tumour cell-intrinsic factors determine the infiltration of T cells into tumours and their response to immunotherapy.

 

P2RX7 keeps memory T cells fit    pp482 - 483
Yvonne Bordon
doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0041-3

Lucy Bird
doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0039-x

The metabolism and maintenance of natural killer (NK) cells is regulated by a previously uncharacterized transcription factor called regulatory factor X7 (RFX7).

 

The inflammasome starts rolling    p483
Thirumala-Devi Kanneganti
doi:10.1038/s41577-018-0027-1

Thirumala-Devi Kanneganti describes a 2002 study by Jürg Tschopp and colleagues that first described the multiprotein, caspase-activating inflammasome complex that drives the maturation and secretion of IL-1β.

Reviews

 

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.
