  • Neutrophils are abundant immune cells important for antimicrobial defence and in autoimmunity. Here, by mapping expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) in neutrophils of Chinese ethnicity from Singapore, Andiappan et al.provide a resource for understanding immune-related trait associated genetic variants.

  • Immune checkpoint blockade therapy improved the survival rates of non-small cell lung cancer but only a proportion of patients benefit. Here authors follow the humoral and cellular immunological parameters of patients undergoing anti-PD1 therapy longitudinally and find that levels and functional properties of cytotoxic T cells, and especially CD8+CD101hiTIM3+ cells determine the response.
