Journal ArticleDOI

De Novo Epigenetic Programs Inhibit PD-1 Blockade-Mediated T Cell Rejuvenation

TL;DR: It is reported that blocking de novo DNA methylation in activated CD8 T cells allows them to retain their effector functions despite chronic stimulation during a persistent viral infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effector CD8 T cells dedifferentiate into long-lived memory cells

TL;DR: Epic repression of naive-associated genes in effector CD8 T cells can be reversed in cells that develop into long-lived memory T cells while key effector genes remain demethylated, demonstrating thatMemory T cells arise from a subset of fate-permissive effector T cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Depletion of Alveolar Macrophages during Influenza Infection Facilitates Bacterial Superinfections

TL;DR: It is concluded that resident AM depletion occurs during influenza infection, which establishes a niche for secondary pneumococcal infection by altering early cellular innate immunity in the lungs, resulting in pneumococCal outgrowth and lethal pneumonia.
