The Immunology Science Round Up

Acetylcholine Receptor in Autoimmunity – Researchers used cryoelectron microscopy to determine the high-resolution structures of the human adult AChR in different functional states.

Skin Damage and Immune Responses – Acute and chronic inflammation in the skin of mice can initiate humoral immune responses to bystander antigens in the gut.

Gut Microbes and Th17 Cells – A. faecalis outer membrane vesicles promote intestinal Th17 cell generation.

Sex Differences in Pain Sensing – Depleting Tregs cells localized to the meninges of the central nervous system increased the responses of female, but not male, mice to mechanical pain stimuli.
