"Overall, these data demonstrate that IL-15C treatment, via its induction of IL-10 from NK cells, modulates the dysregulated inflammation during Plasmodium infection to promote Tfh differentiation & Ab generation, correlating with improved survival from reinfection."

"Although type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1s) were not required for initial priming of CD4+ T cells, cDC1s were required for CD4+ T cell expansion and gut homing. cDC1s were also a major source of IL-12 that was not required for priming but promoted full differentiation of CD4+ T cells and local production of IFN-γ. Together, these studies reveal distinct roles for cDC1s in shaping CD4+ T cell responses to enteric infection: first to drive early expansion in the mesLN and second to drive effector responses in the gut."

Steroids are very effective immunomodulating drugs. BUT they do increase the risk of some infections.
This is a nice review describing what infections steroids make you susceptible. The immunology affected is discussed but harder to pin down, as likely context dependent.

'Together, these results demonstrate that host cGAS–STING senses T. cruzi infection, enhancing parasite growth at the site of entry, and contributes to acute-phase parasite restriction in the heart, a major site of tissue damage in chronic T. cruzi infection.'

'Although infection and these translocated effector proteins are restricted to intestinal epithelial cells (IEC), type I dendritic cells (cDC1) were required to generate CD8+ T cell responses to these model antigens.'

'In conclusion, mitochondrial perturbation of the epithelium causes dysbiotic expansion of Bacteroides spp., supporting the concept that microbe-host cross-talk contributes to metabolic injury in intestinal inflammation.'

'We now provide compelling evidence that in hypoxic conditions, an autocrine IL-24/IL-24-receptor signaling/STAT3 loop is induced, which then sustains the HIF1α-mediated expression of epidermal IL-24. In turn, IL-24 acts in an autocrine and paracrine fashion to coordinate re-epithelialization, re-vascularization, dermal fibroblast proliferation, and collagen deposition to restore the damaged tissue to homeostasis.'
Liu, @mucida, Fuchs et al -
"However, T cell responses to dietary antigen have primarily been characterized using monoclonal T cell receptor (TCR) transgenic systems which do not represent a physiological immune response. Polyclonal CD4+ T cell responses to food, including TCR-specific selection and functional differentiation, remain largely uncharacterized and are critical for understanding mechanisms of tolerance and allergy."

"With IL-8-humanized mouse strain, we demonstrate that IL-8-producing CD4+ T, myeloid, and tumor cells orchestrate myeloid-derived suppressor cell infiltration and angiogenesis, which results in enhanced tumor growth but reduced ICB efficacy."

"We observed a significant increase in the expression of IL-31RA, but not its cognate ligand IL-31 during house dust mite- and Schistosoma mansoni soluble egg antigen-induced allergic asthma. In support of this, IFN-γ and Th2 cytokines, IL-4 and IL-13, upregulated IL-31RA but not IL-31 in airway smooth muscle cells (ASMC). Importantly, the loss of IL-31RA attenuated AHR but had no effects on inflammation and goblet cell hyperplasia in allergic asthma or mice treated with IL-13 or IFNγ."

'We leveraged the UK Biobank to identify genetic loci that influence humoral immune response to multiple infections.
