  • Interleukin-1β is a pro-inflammatory cytokine of medical importance. Here the authors describe the discovery of a low-molecular weight compound that antagonizes hIL-1β function in cells, demonstrating the relevance of this discovery for future development of hIL-1β directed therapeutics.

  • Citizen science taps the efforts of non-experts. Here, authors describe Drugit, an extension of the crowdsourcing game Foldit, and its use in designing a non-peptide binder of Von Hippel Lindau E3 ligase for use with proteolysis targeting chimeras.

  • Patients with autoimmune diseases require immunosuppressive treatments that affect their responses to infection and vaccination. Here, using mass cytometry, the authors to identify a role for myeloid cells in cellular and humoral responses following vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 in patients with neuroimmunological diseases.

  • Fatal Ebola virus disease is characterized by a high proportion of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells expressing the inhibitory molecules CTLA-4 and PD-1, correlating with high virus load; individuals who survive the infection exhibit lower expression of these inhibitory molecules and generate Ebola-specific CD8+ T cells, suggesting that dysregulation of the T cell response is a key component of Ebola virus disease pathophysiology.

  • A chemical probe BI-9321 for the PWWP1 domain of NSD3 and its inactive analog were identified. BI-9321 binds to the methyl-lysine binding site, reduces the association of NSD3 with chromatin and inhibits proliferation of acute myeloid leukemia cells.

  • A nanopore DNA sequencer is used for real-time genomic surveillance of the Ebola virus epidemic in the field in Guinea; the authors demonstrate that it is possible to pack a genomic surveillance laboratory in a suitcase and transport it to the field for on-site virus sequencing, generating results within 24 hours of sample collection.

  • Research and debate are intensifying on complementing CO2 emissions reductions with hypothetical climate geoengineering techniques. Here, the authors assess their potentials, uncertainties and risks, and show that they cannot yet be relied on to significantly contribute to meeting the Paris Agreement temperature goals.
