Open AccessBlimp-1 and c-Maf regulate immune gene networks to protect against distinct pathways of pathobiont-induced colitis
Intestinal immune responses to microbes are controlled by the cytokine IL-10 to avoid immune pathology. Here, we use single-cell RNA sequencing of colon lamina propria leukocytes (LPLs) along with RNA-seq and ...

Open AccessImmune microniches shape intestinal Treg function
The intestinal immune system is highly adapted to maintaining tolerance to the commensal microbiota and self-antigens while defending against invading pathogens1,2. Recognizing how the diverse network of local ce...

Open AccessA conserved population of MHC II-restricted, innate-like, commensal-reactive T cells in the gut of humans and mice
Interactions with commensal microbes shape host immunity on multiple levels and play a pivotal role in human health and disease. Tissue-dwelling, antigen-specific T cells are poised to respond to local insults...

Open AccessAccurate identification and quantification of commensal microbiota bound by host immunoglobulins
Identifying which taxa are targeted by immunoglobulins can uncover important host-microbe interactions. Immunoglobulin binding of commensal taxa can be assayed by sorting bound bacteria from samples and using ...

Host–microbiota maladaptation in colorectal cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a heterogeneous disease of the intestinal epithelium that is characterized by the accumulation of mutations and a dysregulated immune response. Up to 90% of disease risk is thought t...

Open AccessT-bet is a key modulator of IL-23-driven pathogenic CD4+ T cell responses in the intestine
IL-23 is a key driver of pathogenic Th17 cell responses. It has been suggested that the transcription factor T-bet is required to facilitate IL-23-driven pathogenic effector functions; however, the precise rol...

The alarmin IL-33 promotes regulatory T-cell function in the intestine
The alarmin interleukin-33 is constitutively expressed at barrier sites and released in response to tissue damage; here, the IL-33 receptor ST2 is shown to be preferentially expressed on colonic regulatory T c...
