Global impoverishment of natural vegetation revealed by dark diversity

A comparison of alpha diversity (number of plant species) and dark diversity (species that are currently absent from a site despite being ecologically suitable) demonstrates the negative effects of regional-scale anthropogenic activity on plant diversity.

Adenovirus vector vaccination reprograms pulmonary fibroblastic niches to support protective inflating memory CD8⁺ T cells

Ludewig and colleagues show that adenovirus immunization fosters the formation of pulmonary immune-stimulating niches underpinned by fibroblastic stromal cells that maintain ‘inflating’ memory CD8⁺ T cells through the provision of interleukin-33.

Bone morphogenic protein-4 availability in the cardiac microenvironment controls inflammation and fibrosis in autoimmune myocarditis

Perez-Shibayama et al. report that BMP4 signaling is downregulated in autoimmune myocarditis. Restoring BMP4 levels with antibodies that neutralize the BMP inhibitors gremlin-1 and gremlin-2 can ameliorate cardiac inflammation and improve function in mouse models.

B cell zone reticular cell microenvironments shape CXCL13 gradient formation

Morphogens such as chemokines form gradients to direct graded responses and modulate cell behaviors. Here the authors show, using imaging and computer simulation, that the chemokine CXCL13 originated from follicular reticular cells in the lymph nodes forms both soluble and immobilized gradients to regulate B cell recruitment and migration.

Virus scores a perfect 10

Blockade of a single cytokine—interleukin-10—can re-energize T cells 'exhausted' by persistent virus infection. The findings have implications for controlling HIV and other persistent viruses (pages 1301–1309).

Trade-offs between multifunctionality and profit in tropical smallholder landscapes

Identifying economic and ecological trade-offs of land-use transitions is important to ensure sustainability. Here, Grass et al. find biodiversity-profit trade-offs in tropical land-use transitions in Sumatra, and show that targeted landscape planning is needed to increase land-use efficiency while ensuring socio-ecological sustainability.

Deformation-related volcanism in the Pacific Ocean linked to the Hawaiian–Emperor bend

The Hawaiian–Emperor volcanic chain has a distinctive bend. Geochemical analyses show that lavas erupted on the ocean floor close to the bend formed during deformation of the Pacific Plate, implying the bend was caused by changes in plate motion.

Splenic stromal niches in homeostasis and immunity

In the spleen, diverse types of fibroblastic stromal cells, as well as neuronal cells, establish a complex microanatomy that supports splenic function at homeostasis and orchestrates immune responses to infection.
