TL;DR: The epigenetic and transcriptional programs of monocyte differentiation to macrophages that distinguish tolerant and trained macrophage phenotypes are uncovered, providing a resource to further understand and manipulate immune-mediated responses.

TL;DR: A genome-wide association analysis in the UK Biobank and INTERVAL studies is performed, providing evidence of shared genetic pathways linking blood cell indices with complex pathologies, including autoimmune diseases, schizophrenia, and coronary heart disease and evidence suggesting previously reported population associations betweenBlood cell indices and cardiovascular disease may be non-causal.

TL;DR: This work uses promoter capture Hi-C to identify interacting regions of 31,253 promoters in 17 human primary hematopoietic cell types and shows that promoter interactions are highly cell type specific and enriched for links between active promoters and epigenetically marked enhancers.

TL;DR: High-resolution genetic, epigenetic, and transcriptomic profiling in three major human immune cell types from up to 197 individuals yields insights into cell-type-specific correlation between diverse genomic inputs, more generalizable correlations between these inputs, and defines molecular events that may underpin complex disease risk.

TL;DR: It is confirmed that 68Ga-DOTATATE offers superior coronary imaging, excellent macrophage specificity, and better power to discriminate high-risk versus low-risk coronary lesions than [18F]FDG.
