Pathogen-fighting immune cells called tissue-resident memory CD8 T cells (TRM cells) go through a surprising transformation -- and relocation -- as they fight infections in the small intestine.

These receptors allow T cells to sense and respond to diverse types of infection. A healthy immune system is tolerant to self-antigens while maintaining responsiveness to foreign threats.

An international team of UK and US scientists has discovered that the activity of macrophages—a type of white blood cell that ...
