TL;DR: It is proposed that polymorphic H CMV peptides contribute to shaping of the heterogeneity of adaptive NKG2C+ NK cell populations among HCMV-seropositive people and demonstrate adaptive-like recognition that can discriminate between closely related viral strains.

TL;DR: Three mutant viruses no longer able to target miR-27a/b, either due to miRNA target site disruption or target site replacement, showed significant attenuation in multiple organs as early as 4 days post infection, indicating that degradation of miR/b is important for efficient MCMV replication in vivo.

TL;DR: Improving the understanding of viral regulation of NK cell function could be essential for designing more efficient measures in the prophylaxis and treatment of virus-induced pathology.

TL;DR: It is shown that RORγt⁺ ILCs can directly sense the environment by the engagement of the activating receptor NKp44 and are able to switch between IL-22 or TNF production, depending on the triggering stimulus.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that in humans RORγt(+)CD34(+) cells are lineage-specified progenitors of IL-22(+) ILC3s and proposed that tonsils and intestinal LP, which are enriched both in committed precursors and mature I LC3s, might represent preferential sites of ILC2 lineage differentiation.
