Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cell Activation Is Broadly Conserved Across Immune Phenotype-Specific Ovarian Tumor Lysate Pools, With Donor-Associated Variation in Response Magnitude
Whether ex vivo monocyte-derived dendritic cell responses are shaped more by tumor immune context or donor-associated variation remains unclear. Monocyte-derived dendritic cells from nine healthy female donors were exposed for 8 h to thr...

The chitinase–microbiota axis: connecting innate immunity, microbial ecology, and mucosal homeostasis
Chitinases and chitinase-like proteins are evolutionarily conserved molecules increasingly recognized as components of biological networks linking environmental exposure, innate immunity, tissue organization, and host–microbial interacti...

Cumulative expression of the two Lyn isoforms creates a threshold for macrophage signaling in the absence of receptor engagement
It has been unclear whether phenotypic differences between LynA- and LynB-knockout mice, each expressing only one splice form of the Src-family kinase (SFK) Lyn, are due to isoform-specific functions or dose effects from differences in o...

Decoding low-density neutrophils in breast and lung cancer: from bystanders to drivers
Neutrophils, once viewed as short-lived and functionally uniform antimicrobial cells, are now recognized as highly plastic immune regulators with context-dependent roles in cancer. Among circulating neutrophil subsets, low-density neutro...

Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol exposure shifts eosinophil and macrophage transcriptional programs toward an anti-inflammatory phenotype in helminth infection
Cannabis use is increasing globally, yet the immunological effects of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol, the main intoxicating component of cannabis, remain incompletely understood. Given prior evidence that endocannabinoid signaling influences he...

Hazy mysteries and the major histocompatibility complex: a journey
I was pleased to receive an invitation to write a historical perspective on my career. As I understand it, these perspectives aim to illustrate the often-twisted paths to discoveries, the fortuitous events that often enable them, and the...

Metabolite-mediated crosstalk between neutrophils, commensal bacteria, and dendritic cells is associated with intestinal immune responses
The intestinal immune system relies on coordinated interactions between innate immune cells and commensal bacteria. How metabolites integrate host–microbe communication in the gut remains incompletely understood. Using neutrophil activat...

The light side of mast cell degranulation: delivering macrophage repair through molecular condensates
Mast cell (MC) degranulation is commonly viewed as the rapid release of preformed inflammatory mediators into the extracellular environment. In a recent study published in the Journal of Experimental Medicine, Salm et al. described a mor...

Single-cell and spatial transcriptomics define eosinophil heterogeneity during influenza A virus–induced exacerbation of fungal allergic asthma in C57BL/6 mice
Although eosinophils (EOS) are accepted as transcriptionally heterogeneous in asthma, how allergic inflammation shapes EOS states during influenza A virus (IAV) infection remains undefined. We integrated high-resolution single-cell RNA s...

Intoxication, inflammaging, and injury: my journey through leukocyte biology
Senior author E.J.K. writes: As a scientist, teacher, research mentor, and mom, I asked myself, “what is my legacy?” Legacies usually have numbers associated with them. When asked this question in the past, I summed my accomplishments in...
