Structural Racism and the Social Determinants of Health in Asthma
Adv Exp Med Biol. 2023;1426:101-115. doi: 10.1007/978-3-031-32259-4_5.ABSTRACTAsthma prevalence and morbidity are disproportionately higher among minoritized communities in the United States. Racial and ethnic disparities in asthma result from complex interactions across biological, environmental, and social factors. Asthma is considered a complex heterogeneous disease consisting of different phenotypes, some of which may be more common in individuals impacted by the downstream effects of structural racism and lack of access to the social determinants of health. Structural racism across generations has created and reinforc...

Extremely Differentiated T Cell Subsets Contribute to Tissue Deterioration During Aging
Annu Rev Immunol. 2023 Apr 26;41:181-205. doi: 10.1146/annurev-immunol-101721-064501.ABSTRACTThere is a dramatic remodeling of the T cell compartment during aging. The most notorious changes are the reduction of the naive T cell pool and the accumulation of memory-like T cells. Memory-like T cells in older people acquire a phenotype of terminally differentiated cells, lose the expression of costimulatory molecules, and acquire properties of senescent cells. In this review, we focus on the different subsets of age-associated T cells that accumulate during aging. These subsets include extremely cytotoxic T cells with natural...

Interfering with Interferons: A Critical Mechanism for Critical COVID-19 Pneumonia
Annu Rev Immunol. 2023 Apr 26;41:561-585. doi: 10.1146/annurev-immunol-101921-050835.ABSTRACTInfection with SARS-CoV-2 results in clinical outcomes ranging from silent or benign infection in most individuals to critical pneumonia and death in a few. Genetic studies in patients have established that critical cases can result from inborn errors of TLR3- or TLR7-dependent type I interferon immunity, or from preexisting autoantibodies neutralizing primarily IFN-α and/or IFN-ω. These findings are consistent with virological studies showing that multiple SARS-CoV-2 proteins interfere with pathways of induction of, or response ...

Systems Immunology Approaches to Metabolism
Annu Rev Immunol. 2023 Apr 26;41:317-342. doi: 10.1146/annurev-immunol-101220-031513.ABSTRACTOver the last decade, immunometabolism has emerged as a novel interdisciplinary field of research and yielded significant fundamental insights into the regulation of immune responses. Multiple classical approaches to interrogate immunometabolism, including bulk metabolic profiling and analysis of metabolic regulator expression, paved the way to appreciating the physiological complexity of immunometabolic regulation in vivo. Studying immunometabolism at the systems level raised the need to transition towards the next-generation tech...

Modeling T Cell Fate
Annu Rev Immunol. 2023 Apr 26;41:513-532. doi: 10.1146/annurev-immunol-101721-040924.ABSTRACTMany of the pathways that underlie the diversification of naive T cells into effector and memory subsets, and the maintenance of these populations, remain controversial. In recent years a variety of experimental tools have been developed that allow us to follow the fates of cells and their descendants. In this review we describe how mathematical models provide a natural language for describing the growth, loss, and differentiation of cell populations. By encoding mechanistic descriptions of cell behavior, models can help us interpr...

Origin and Heterogeneity of Tissue Myeloid Cells: A Focus on GMP-Derived Monocytes and Neutrophils
Annu Rev Immunol. 2023 Apr 26;41:375-404. doi: 10.1146/annurev-immunol-081022-113627.ABSTRACTMyeloid cells are a significant proportion of leukocytes within tissues, comprising granulocytes, monocytes, dendritic cells, and macrophages. With the identification of various myeloid cells that perform separate but complementary functions during homeostasis and disease, our understanding of tissue myeloid cells has evolved significantly. Exciting findings from transcriptomics profiling and fate-mapping mouse models have facilitated the identification of their developmental origins, maturation, and tissue-specific specializations...

RNA Modification in the Immune System
Annu Rev Immunol. 2023 Apr 26;41:73-98. doi: 10.1146/annurev-immunol-101921-045401.ABSTRACTCharacterization of RNA modifications has identified their distribution features and molecular functions. Dynamic changes in RNA modification on various forms of RNA are essential for the development and function of the immune system. In this review, we discuss the value of innovative RNA modification profiling technologies to uncover the function of these diverse, dynamic RNA modifications in various immune cells within healthy and diseased contexts. Further, we explore our current understanding of the mechanisms whereby aberrant RN...
