Innate immune memory: a paradigm shift in understanding host defense   pp675 - 679
Mihai G Netea, Eicke Latz, Kingston H G Mills and Luke A J O'Neill
doi:10.1038/ni.3178
Researchers gathered at the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus in Hinxton, Cambridge, for the first Innate Immune Memory Conference dedicated to the adaptive characteristics of innate immunity, to further the understanding of this newly described immunological process that probably has a central role in host defense and inflammation.

News and Views

Sirt-ainly Aire   pp680 - 681
Pärt Peterson
doi:10.1038/ni.3195
Sirtuin-1 (Sirt1), a protein deacetylase known for its multiple cellular functions, including roles in metabolism, stress response and aging, is a post-translational modulator of autoimmune regulator (Aire) in central immunotolerance.

DNA methylation secures CD4+ and CD8+ T cell lineage borders   pp681 - 683
Yongqiang Feng and Alexander Y Rudensky
doi:10.1038/ni.3207
Dynamic control of DNA methylation in the Cd4 locus serves an important role in reinforcing the binary fate stability of helper and cytotoxic T cells.

DCs are ready to commit   pp683 - 685
Deborah R Winter and Ido Amit
doi:10.1038/ni.3208
Dendritic cell progenitors commit to a specific conventional dendritic cell fate earlier than previously thought, by initiating transcription-factor regulatory circuits unique to their subtype.

How many memories does it take to make an SLE flare?   pp685 - 687
David M Tarlinton and Kenneth G C Smith
doi:10.1038/ni.3209
Deep-sequencing analyses of immunoglobulin variable-segment genes from antibody-secreting cells have allowed comparisons of conventional immunization responses to disease flares experienced by patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. Such analyses provide insight into B cell recruitment and differentiation processes yielding expanded clones that contribute to this complex autoimmune disease.

Review

The diverse role of RIP kinases in necroptosis and inflammation   pp689 - 697
John Silke, James A Rickard and Motti Gerlic
doi:10.1038/ni.3206
Gerlic and colleagues examine the role of cell death, particularly necroptosis, in inflammation, in the context of recent insights into the roles of the key necroptosis effector molecules RIPK1, RIPK3 and MLKL.

Interferon-λ and interleukin 22 act synergistically for the induction of interferon-stimulated genes and control of rotavirus infection   pp698 - 707
Pedro P Hernández, Tanel Mahlak&otide;iv, Ines Yang, Vera Schwierzeck, Nam Nguyen et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.3180
Epithelial surfaces are the main entry point for viruses and thus are important immunological sites. Diefenbach and colleagues show that the related cytokines IL-22 and IFN-λ act together in the control of enterovirus infection.

Batf3 maintains autoactivation of Irf8 for commitment of a CD8α+ conventional DC clonogenic progenitor   pp708 - 717
Gary E Grajales-Reyes, Arifumi Iwata, Jörn Albring, Xiaodi Wu, Roxane Tussiwand et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.3197
The transcription factors Batf3 and IRF8 are required for the development of CD8α+ conventional dendritic cells (cDCs). Murphy and colleagues characterize the Batf3-IRF8 interactions that allow differentiation toward CD8α+ cDCs.

Identification of cDC1- and cDC2-committed DC progenitors reveals early lineage priming at the common DC progenitor stage in the bone marrow   pp718 - 728
Andreas Schlitzer, V Sivakamasundari, Jinmiao Chen, Hermi Rizal Bin Sumatoh, Jaring Schreuder et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.3200
The progenitor stage of commitment toward the conventional dendritic cell subsets and the transcriptional networks that control it remain poorly understood. Two articles from Ginhoux and colleagues and Murphy and colleagues offer insight into these processes.

The transcription factor TFEB acts as a molecular switch that regulates exogenous antigen-presentation pathways   pp729 - 736
Mohammad Samie and Peter Cresswell
doi:10.1038/ni.3196
Dendritic cells present exogenous antigens to T cells on MHC class I or MHC class II. Cresswell and colleagues show that the transcription factor TFEB inhibits exogenous antigen presentation by MHC class I and enhances presentation by MHC class II by promoting phagosomal acidification.

The deacetylase Sirt1 is an essential regulator of Aire-mediated induction of central immunological tolerance   pp737 - 745
Anna Chuprin, Ayelet Avin, Yael Goldfarb, Yonatan Herzig, Ben Levi et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.3194
Dysfunction of the deacetylase Sirt1 has been associated with certain metabolic diseases. Abramson and colleagues show that Sirt1 has high expression in the thymus, where it deacetylates the transcriptional regulator Aire and is essential for Aire's ability to switch on the expression of tissue-specific genes.

Regulation of DNA methylation dictates Cd4 expression during the development of helper and cytotoxic T cell lineages   pp746 - 754
MacLean Sellars, Jun R Huh, Kenneth Day, Priya D Issuree, Carolina Galan et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.3198
Cd4 expression in helper and cytotoxic T cells is locked in by gene-expression programs that define lineage identity. Littman and colleagues define stage-specific methylation and demethylation events that regulate the heritable expression of Cd4.

Diversity, cellular origin and autoreactivity of antibody-secreting cell population expansions in acute systemic lupus erythematosus   pp755 - 765
Christopher M Tipton, Christopher F Fucile, Jaime Darce, Asiya Chida, Travis Ichikawa et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.3175
Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) experience flares of autoantibody secretion. Sanz and colleagues track the plasma cell repertoires of patients with SLE and find a sizeable polyclonal contribution by newly activated autoreactive B cells.

Mechanisms of clonal evolution in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia   pp766 - 774
Srividya Swaminathan, Lars Klemm, Eugene Park, Elli Papaemmanuil, Anthony Ford et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.3160
Secondary mutations can drive the transformation of pre-leukemic clones that carry ETV6-RUNX1 translocations. Muschen and colleagues show that repeated inflammatory episodes induce aberrant coexpression of the DNA recombinases RAG and AID to promote the development of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

The chromatin remodeler Brg1 activates enhancer repertoires to establish B cell identity and modulate cell growth   pp775 - 784
Claudia Bossen, Caroline S Murre, Aaron N Chang, Robert Mansson, Hans-Reimer Rodewald et al.
doi:10.1038/ni.3170
B lineage development requires the transcription factors E2A, EBF1, Foxo1 and Ikaros. Murre and colleagues show that these factors gain access to lineage-specific enhancer sites by the action of the chromatin remodeler Brg1.
