    Anti-GD2 synergizes with CD47 blockade to mediate tumor eradication

    The disialoganglioside GD2 is overexpressed on several solid tumors, and monoclonal antibodies targeting GD2 have substantially improved outcomes for children with high-risk neuroblastoma. However, approximate...

    Engagement of MHC class I by the inhibitory receptor LILRB1 suppresses macrophages and is a target of cancer immunotherapy

    Exciting progress in the field of cancer immunotherapy has renewed the urgency of the need for basic studies of immunoregulation in both adaptive cell lineages and innate cell lineages. Here we found a central...

    IL-1β-driven neutrophilia preserves antibacterial defense in the absence of the kinase IKKβ

    Pathways dependent on the transcription factor NF-κB provide innate immunity against microbes. Karin and colleagues show that mice lacking the kinase IKKβ have IL-1-dependent neutrophilia. Loss of IL-1 signali...

    Sustained in vitro intestinal epithelial culture within a Wnt-dependent stem cell niche

    The development of a long-term intestinal culture system has, until recently, eluded researchers. Here the authors describe a method allowing long-term culture of both small intestine and colon that incorporat...

    Erratum: Depletion of host Langerhans cells before transplantation of donor alloreactive T cells prevents skin graft-versus-host disease

    Nat. Med. 10, 510–517 (2004). TCD bone marrow was defined in the article as “T-cell-derived” bone marrow. The correct definition is “T-cell-depleted” bone marrow. We regret the error.

    Depletion of host Langerhans cells before transplantation of donor alloreactive T cells prevents skin graft-versus-host disease

    Skin is the most commonly affected organ in graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). To explore the role of Langerhans cells in GVHD, the principal dendritic cells of the skin, we studied the fate of these cells in m...

    Langerhans cells renew in the skin throughout life under steady-state conditions

    Langerhans cells (LCs) are bone marrow (BM)–derived epidermal dendritic cells (DCs) that represent a critical immunologic barrier to the external environment, but little is known about their life cycle. Here, ...

    Can stem cells cross lineage boundaries?

    Stem cells have traditionally been characterized as either embryonic (pluripotent) or organ-specific. Recent work suggests that the latter can "transdifferentiate" into other cell types, carrying significant i...
