We identify a homozygous mutation in SFTPA1 in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The mutation causes increased necroptosis of type II alveolar epithelial cells through the IRE1α–JNK axis, which highlights the necroptosis pathway as a therapeutic target for IPF.

Shi et al. find that microglia, instead of tau-induced direct neurotoxicity, are the driving force of neurodegeneration in a tauopathy mouse model. Microglia are also required for tau pathogenesis. In addition, apoE strongly regulates neurodegeneration in the setting of tauopathy predominantly by modulating microglial function.

Lung TRM cells are present in both the interstitium and airways, but factors regulating their localization to these distinct sites are unknown. This work shows that the CXCR6/CXCL16 axis governs the partitioning of TRM cells to different compartments of the lung and maintains the airway TRM cell pool.

Knipfer et al. identify a critical role for the type 2–related chemokine receptor CCR8 on ILC2 functions during type 2 immune responses. CCR8 supports ILC2 survival by autocrine secretion of the ligand CCL1. The authors demonstrate that CCL1/CCR8 signaling protects against helminth infections.

Identification of biallelic loss-of-function mutations in TNFRSF9 and PIK3CD in a kindred with chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection of T cells (CAEBV) suggests that CAEBV is the consequence of factors providing growth advantage to EBV-infected T cells combined with defective cell immunity toward EBV-infected cells.
