TL;DR: High‐dimensional cytometry reveals that microglia, several subsets of border‐associated macrophages and dendritic cells coexist in the CNS at steady state and exhibit disease‐specific transformations in the immune microenvironment during aging and in models of Alzheimer’s disease and multiple sclerosis.

TL;DR: In vivo imaging and pharmacological experiments show that macrophage-derived reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS) can trigger mitochondrial pathology and initiate FAD, and suggest that inflammatory axon damage might be spontaneously reversible and thus a potential target for therapy.

TL;DR: It is shown that TOX is a critical factor for the normal progression of T cell dysfunction and the maintenance of exhausted T cells during chronic infection, and provide a link between the suppression of effector function intrinsic to CD8 T cells and protection against immunopathology.

TL;DR: The integrative approach of live imaging, electron microscopy, and genetics are used to show that new myelin membranes are incorporated adjacent to the axon at the innermost tongue, ultimately leading to the formation of a set of closely apposed paranodal loops.
