Article Abstract
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are transcriptionally and functionally similar to T cells but lack adaptive antigen receptors. They play critical roles in early defense against pathogens. In this review, we summarize recent discoveries of ILC progenitors and discuss possible mechanisms that separate ILCs from T cells. We consider mechanisms of lineage specification in early ILC development and also examine whether differences exist between adult and fetal ILC development.

Comprehensive analysis of the systemic immune landscape across breast cancer subtypes and disease stages.
Immunooncol Technol

Division of Tumor Biology & Immunology, The Netherlands Cancer Institute, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Background: Breast cancer is a systemic disease, yet the impact of tumor molecular subtype and disease stage on the systemic immune landscape remains poorly understood. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed the systemic immune landscape in a large cohort of breast cancer patients, encompassing all molecular subtypes and disease stages, alongside a control group of healthy donors.
Materials And Methods: Using multi-parameter flow cytometry, we assessed the abundance, phenotype, and activation status of diverse innate and adaptive immune cell populations across peripheral blood samples from 355 breast cancer patients and 65 healthy donors.

Background: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a gastrointestinal inflammatory condition with an unclear etiology. Recent findings suggest that metabolites play a pivotal role in promoting intestinal health. We have previously observed a significant enrichment in colonic branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) in resistant mice to colitis suggesting the potential role of these metabolites in UC development.

Introduction: Although Coeliac disease (CD) current and only treatment is a life-long strict gluten free diet (GFD), some patients suffer from persistent duodenal lesions despite years into the diet. Hence, we aimed to study the effect that the GFD elicits on the mucosal immune infiltrate from these patients.
Method: To that end, duodenal biopsies were collected from non-coeliac controls and CD patients, both at diagnosis and after at least one year into the GFD.

The fraction that the elderly represent in the world's population is growing rapidly; numerous alterations that impact all organs and systems, including the immune system, are related to aging. A complex process common in the elderly, known as immunosenescence, is characterized by a decreased ability to respond to vaccination as well as an increased risk of bacterial and viral infections, autoimmune, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. These processes are associated with alterations in the innate and adaptive immune system and lead to a condition of chronic low-grade inflammation, referred to as inflammaging.
