Fagniez et al identify new patients w/ inherited RORγT deficiency characterized by impaired TCRα rearrangement, depletion of MAIT & iNKT cells, reduced numbers of TH17, TH1* & CD8+ T cells, & defective IFN-γ & IL-17 immunity against Mycobacterium & Candida https://t.co/rfCtTJvd0x

Our understanding of the innate immune mechanisms related tuberculosis (TB) is limited. New data suggest that neutrophil subpopulations are associated with TB disease progression as they can modulate CD8 T cells’ functions. Learn more in The JI: https://t.co/vqkYswasRF.

So we blocked IFNγ in Mtb infected macaques and….the animals were fine. Turns out mice overestimate the importance of IFNγ in TB because IFNγ drives iNOS in mice but not macaques or humans. This means we don’t actually know how T cells suppress Mtb. https://t.co/vbdpLKjQCa

Happy to share our recent paper in @eLife showing the detrimental effects of β-Glucan in a murine LPS-model of lung injury This study was led by Renaud from @chubordeauxfr and incredible collaborators @erwan_pernet @kimaimytran Dr Poschmann @NantesUniv https://t.co/HoNP7F9PIt

A new @NIAIDNews study cautions against the use of PD-1 checkpoint blockade #immunotherapy as a treatment for #tuberculosis, revealing that the treatment increased bacterial loads and worsened chronic disease in rhesus macaques: https://t.co/aOXKzTSA9I @SciImmunology

Higher levels of natural killer cells are associated with tuberculosis latency, reports a paper published in Nature. The findings raise the question as to whether natural killer cells might play an active role in controlling tuberculosis infections https://t.co/uU2s02JRfI

#Neutrophils can exhibit substantial function diversity. Montaldo et al @OstuniLab perform immunophenotyping and transcriptome analysis to characterize the heterogeneity of human neutrophils, both under steady state and upon stress-induced conditions. https://t.co/qkOEUsekxJ
