Exploring the role of cGAS-STING-mediated inflammation in age-associated neurodegeneration and antitumor immunity

Inflammation stands as a dynamic and intricate biological process, promoting vital defence mechanisms against harmful stimuli, including infections and injuries, to drive pathogen clearance and healing. On one hand, these responses can manifest acutely and ...

Soft cancer cells squeeze through T cell's grip

Li Tang, Armand Kurum, Yi Wang

Immune cells are exquisitely sensitive to the mechanical properties of cancer cells. Soft cancer cells can avoid immune-mediated destruction. Therapeutically targeting this mechanical immune checkpoint may enhance the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. ...

Gene expression patterns associated with multidrug therapy in multibacillary leprosy

Stewart Cole, Andrej Benjak, Charlotte Avanzi, Philippe Busso, Thyago Leal Calvo

Multidrug therapy (MDT) has been successfully used in the treatment of leprosy. However, although patients are cured after the completion of MDT, leprosy reactions, permanent disability, and occasional relapse/reinfection are frequently observed in patient ...

The emerging roles of eosinophils in mucosal homeostasis

Nicola Harris, Kathleen Shah

Eosinophils are granulocytes, typically implicated as end-stage effector cells in type-II immune responses. They are capable of producing a wide array of pre-formed molecules which render them with vast potential to influence a wide variety of processes. N ...

Multifunctional hybrid alginate-based hydrogels for cell immobilization

Luca Szabó

Cell therapy could be a solution for many diseases that currently pose a huge health burden on patients. Especially, cell therapies based on cell microencapsulation are of great interest. Immunoprotection of cells would allow to avoid the need for immunosu ...

House dust mite drives proinflammatory eicosanoid reprogramming and macrophage effector functions

Nicola Harris, Julia Esser-von Bieren, Tiffany Babette Angélique Bouchery

Background Eicosanoid lipid mediators play key roles in type 2 immune responses, for example in allergy and asthma. Macrophages represent major producers of eicosanoids and they are key effector cells of type 2 immunity. We aimed to comprehensively track e ...

Polymeric Micelles Loading Proteins through Concurrent Ion Complexation and pH-Cleavable Covalent Bonding for In Vivo Delivery

Francesco Stellacci, Suiyang Liao

Protein drugs have great potential as targeted therapies, yet their application suffers from several drawbacks, such as instability, short half-life, and adverse immune responses. Thus, protein delivery approaches based on stimuli-responsive nanocarriers c ...

An Exploratory Study On The Functional Significance Of Eosinophil Residency In The Small Intestine Under Homeostatic Conditions

Kathleen Shah

The small intestine is a highly dynamic and complex cellular ecosystem, which serves as the primary interface between the host and its environment. A critical component of this ecosystem is the microbiota, which plays a pivotal role in shaping both immune ...

Deciphering the molecular basis of mycobacteria and lipoglycan recognition by the C-type lectin Dectin-2

Alexiane Clara Decout

Dectin-2 is a C-type lectin involved in the recognition of several pathogens such as Aspergillus fumigatus, Candida albicans, Schistosoma mansonii, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis that triggers Th17 immune responses. Identifying pathogen ligands and underst ...

Microbiota-Derived Lactate Activates Production of Reactive Oxygen Species by the Intestinal NADPH Oxidase Nox and Shortens Drosophila Lifespan

Bruno Lemaitre, Jean Philippe Boquete, Igor Iatsenko

Commensal microbes colonize the gut epithelia of virtually all animals and provide several benefits to their hosts. Changes in commensal populations can lead to dysbiosis, which is associated with numerous pathologies and decreased lifespan. Peptidoglycan ...
