#Fructose hijacks #immunecells to set them on inflammatory "attack mode"
Researchers found that certain #immunecells can trigger healing in the gut after #cancertherapies using #inflammatory signals – a surprising result, since #gutinflammation was long seen as mainly harmful: http://go.tum.de/772318

🤯 Tiny Chips Hitch a Ride on #ImmuneCells to Sites of #Inflammation
"...a team of researchers led by Deblina Sarkar, an electrical engineer and MIT assistant professor, developed microscopic electronic devices hybridized with living cells. Those cells can be injected into the circulatory system with a standard syringe and will travel the bloodstream before implanting themselves in target brain areas."

I have written another #preLight post, featuring the first work from the Boukhatmi lab.
Always fun to read a #fly paper, especially one with #microscopy too!
Check it out if you like injury repair and tissue/ECM remodelling.
#Scratching an #itch could help boost your #immune defences
Mice that were free to #scratch their #itchy ears saw the number of #immunecells go up and levels of #infection-causing #bacteria decline
Researchers, including Matthias Hebrok, Professor of Applied #StemCell and #Organoid Systems, developed regulatory #immunecells that locally soothe an overactive #immuneresponse, rather than suppressing the whole system: http://go.tum.de/455816

Transcription factors in blood cell development
https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-62731-6
This book explores the role of transcription factors in hematopoietic development and serves as a valuable resource for both experts and early-career scientists.
Enjoy!

New research reveals that cells in blood vessels in the #liver start a "sleep timer" that switches off #ImmuneCells in #ChronicHepatitisB. Targeting this mechanism could be a starting point for new #immunotherapies: http://go.tum.de/857974

Researchers discovered that #tumors use a messenger substance to influence #immunecells in an early phase of the immune response. This could significantly improve #cancer immunotherapies: http://go.tum.de/368607

Excited to share a new #preprint! This represents a truly gargantuan effort to profile #ImmuneCells across the human body as part of the #HumanCellAtlas network. Using multimodal profiling of single cells, we uncover tissue-directed and age-associated gene and protein signatures, which will help us understand features of healthy immune cell heterogenity across life!

“Paradoxical” – Metastatic Breast Cancer’s Trojan Horse
Lymph nodes act as one of the body’s first lines of defense against disease. From these organic control centers, immune cells are sent into battle against foreign invaders. But somehow, lymph nodes are also the first stop for most metastatic cancers.
