Human antibodies as emerging drugs for antimicrobial resistance. Matteo Ridelfi
Trends Immunol. 2026 May 27:S1471-4906(26)00096-7. doi: 10.1016/j.it.2026.04.003. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of today’s most worrisome health emergencies. Bacteria, once easily treatable with antibiotics, have acquired resistance to many or all available drugs. In 2019, 1.27 million infection-related deaths were directly caused by AMR. By 2050, AMR could put 10 … Read more
Substance abuse and inflammation: consequences beyond the brain. Liu Yang
Trends Immunol. 2026 May 25:S1471-4906(26)00104-3. doi: 10.1016/j.it.2026.04.011. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Substance use disorders are traditionally conceptualized as disorders of brain reward circuitry; however, accumulating evidence demonstrates that addictive substances exert profound and persistent effects on central and peripheral immune and inflammatory systems. Opioids, psychostimulants, alcohol, nicotine, cannabinoids, and psychedelics modulate immune signaling across … Read more

Beyond the bench: teaching grant writing in immunotherapy training. Graham Leggatt
Trends Immunol. 2026 May 20:S1471-4906(26)00103-1. doi: 10.1016/j.it.2026.04.010. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Grant writing is a career-defining skill that most researchers learn too late and without formal training. Here, we describe the integration of a structured, discipline-specific grant writing workshop into a postgraduate immunotherapy course and show that it measurably improved student confidence, funding literacy, … Read more
Hijacked on arrival: glucocorticoids enable disseminated tumor cell immune evasion. Yu Lou
Trends Immunol. 2026 May 20:S1471-4906(26)00102-X. doi: 10.1016/j.it.2026.04.009. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Upon leaving the protective microenvironment of the primary tumor, disseminating tumor cells (DTCs) must withstand immune surveillance on their own. Cassandras et al. recently demonstrated that activation of the glucocorticoid receptor pathway serves as a critical mechanism for immune evasion during metastatic outgrowth … Read more
Rethinking the origins and functions of adaptive immunity. Derick Okwan-Duodu
Trends Immunol. 2026 May 16:S1471-4906(26)00101-8. doi: 10.1016/j.it.2026.04.008. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT The adaptive immune system (AIS) is traditionally viewed as a defensive vertebrate innovation forged by pathogen pressure. Yet many of its core features suggest it is a homeostatic, regulatory circuit, not simply a sophisticated means of antimicrobial warfare. The horizontal transfer of mitochondria–endogenous … Read more
The sweet truth about germinal centers. Vishal N Rao
Trends Immunol. 2026 May 5:S1471-4906(26)00098-0. doi: 10.1016/j.it.2026.04.005. Online ahead of print. ABSTRACT Glycan-specific antibodies are classically associated with limited durability. In a recent Immunity article, Fryer et al. showed that repeated Streptococcus pyogenes exposure elicits glycan-specific germinal center responses in tonsils despite reduced T cell help, revealing key limitations of anti-glycan immunity and opportunities to … Read more
