Unlike host resistance, the mechanisms underlying disease tolerance remain poorly understood. In the present study, we investigated whether an adjuvant (β-glucan) can reprogram innate immunity to provide protection against influenza A virus (IAV) infection. β-Glucan treatment reduces the morbidity and mortality against IAV infection, independent of host resistance. The enhanced survival is the result of increased recruitment of neutrophils via RoRγt<sup>+</sup> T cells in the lung tissue. β-Glucan treatment promotes granulopoiesis in a type 1 interferon-dependent manner that leads to the generation of a unique subset of immature neutrophils utilizing a mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and producing interleukin-10. Collectively, our data indicate that β-glucan reprograms hematopoietic stem cells to generate neutrophils with a new ‘regulatory’ function, which is required for promoting disease tolerance and maintaining lung tissue integrity against viral infection.</p>","PeriodicalId":19032,"journal":{"name":"Nature Immunology","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":30.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142936110","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our findings revealed a platelet and adhesion-related blood transcriptional signature on day 7 that predicted the longevity of the antibody response, suggesting a potential role for platelets in modulating antibody response durability. As platelets originate from megakaryocytes, we explored the effect of thrombopoietin (TPO)-mediated megakaryocyte activation on antibody response longevity. We found that TPO administration enhanced the durability of vaccine-induced antibody responses. TPO-activated megakaryocytes also promoted survival of human bone-marrow plasma cells through integrin β1/β2-mediated cell–cell interactions, along with survival factors APRIL and the MIF–CD74 axis. Using machine learning, we developed a classifier based on this platelet-associated signature, which predicted antibody response longevity across six vaccines from seven independent trials, highlighting a conserved mechanism for vaccine durability. Pulendran and colleagues define a molecular signature that can be used to predict the durability of antibody responses to vaccination and reveal important insights into the mechanisms by which vaccines induce durable immunity.","PeriodicalId":19032,"journal":{"name":"Nature Immunology","volume":"26 1","pages":"116-130"},"PeriodicalIF":27.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142913063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We report a homeostatic function of the inflammasome in suppressing malignant transformation through Ras inhibition. We identified increased hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) proliferation within the bone marrow of inflammasome-deficient mice. HSCs within an inflammasome-deficient stroma expressed a Ras signature associated with increased Ras pathway- and cancer-related transcripts and heightened levels of cytokine, chemokine and growth factor receptors. Stromal inflammasome deficiency established a poised Ras-dependent mitogenic state within HSCs, which fueled progeny B cell lymphomagenesis upon Myc deregulation in a spontaneous model of B cell lymphoma, and shortened its premalignant stage leading to faster onset of malignancy. Thus, the stromal inflammasome preserves tissue balance by restraining Ras to disrupt the most common oncogenic Myc–Ras cooperation and establish a natural defense against transition to malignancy. These findings should inform preventative therapies against hematological malignancies. Blander and colleagues report a homeostatic regulatory effect played by inflammasomes in the bone marrow stromal compartment that suppresses premalignant stages of lymphomagenesis.","PeriodicalId":19032,"journal":{"name":"Nature Immunology","volume":"26 1","pages":"53-67"},"PeriodicalIF":27.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142913061","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A deeper interrogation of the intricate and multipartite interactions between dietary components, immune cells and metabolically active tissues is needed for a better understanding of metabolic regulation and development of new treatments for common metabolic diseases. Responding to macronutrients and micronutrients, immune cells play pivotal roles in interorgan communication between the microbiota, small intestine, metabolically active cells including hepatocytes and adipocytes, and the brain, which controls feeding behavior and energy expenditure.
