Brief Definitive Report
Jeremy S. Tilstra et al.
Both B cells and TLR signaling have been implicated in lupus pathogenesis. B cell–specific MyD88, when targeted after disease onset resulted in the stabilization of autoantibody levels and amelioration of disease, suggesting a possible therapeutic efficacy of targeting MyD88-related pathways in the treatment of SLE.
Article
Elif Çakan et al.
TLR9 displays an important early tolerogenic function essential for central B cell tolerance, and CXCL4 inhibits TLR9 function in B cells from SSc patients by sequestering TLR9 ligands away from endosomal TLR9, leading to autoreactive B cell and autoantibody production.
Article
Romina Marone et al.
This work demonstrates that engineering a single amino acid substitution into the cell surface protein CD123 in hematopoietic stem cells protects them from targeted immunotherapies. Transplantation of the modified stem cells may enable posttransplant therapy to reduce disease recurrence.
Article
Nikhat Shaikh et al.
Effector ILC2s retain phenotypic flexibility after hematogenous trafficking and can adapt to distant tissue niches, irrespective of their origin. Retinoic acid signaling is an important driver of intestine-specific ILC2 adaptation with functional implications for acute helminth infections.
Article
Chengsan Sun et al.
Microglia aid in refining central gustatory circuits during normal postnatal development. This process is arrested by merely restricting the mother’s dietary sodium during a limited, early prenatal period when microglia progenitors migrate from the yolk sac to the brain.
Article
Farhad Farjood et al.
This study characterizes an adult retinal pigment epithelial stem cell–derived cell product through transplantation in RCS rats and bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing, identifying distinct subpopulations and a predictive lncRNA marker (TREX) affecting cell integration and vision rescue in rats.
Article
Michiko Itoh et al.
Lysosomal cholesterol overload triggers phenotypic changes and profibrotic activation of macrophages around dead hepatocytes containing cholesterol crystals in the development of NASH. Cholesterol excretion from macrophages using β-cyclodextrin polyrotaxane, which is designed to release β-cyclodextrin in lysosomes, alleviates liver fibrosis.

Reviews & Opinions
Insights
Stuart G. Tangye
In this issue of JEM, Çakan et al. explore a CXCL4-mediated mechanism by which TLRs cause autoimmunity in human B cells, breaching bone marrow tolerance.
Insights
Shiv Pillai
In this issue of JEM, the work of Joachim et al. (2023) on knockin mice with a specific tail mutation in LAT provides valuable insights about cytotoxic CD4+ T cells and human inflammatory diseases.
Viewpoint
Lucie Van Emmenis
In this Viewpoint, we hear from a cross section of women, across multiple research fields, discussing their science and the process of setting up a lab as an independent researcher. As well as being able to celebrate the positives of becoming an independent researcher, we would also like to use this platform to discuss the unique challenges they face as women scientists in their respective scientific environments.
