Mucorales are ubiquitous, opportunistic airborne filamentous fungi (molds) that affect immunocompromised patients with impaired phagocyte function. As opposite to other fungal pathogens, Mucorales ...

As cells are infected by microorganisms, they can pre-emptively die to prevent the replication and spreading of the pathogen. Cell death that is associated with the presence of pathogen-associated ...

Modifying neutrophil therapeutically remains a challenge, but perhaps now is the time to walk the tightrope Heinrich Rohrer referred to and see if we can use this highly effective phagocyte to improve ...

Until now, the function of OX2 has been unclear. Now, with the cloning of its receptor and the generation of OX2 −/− mice, a possible role as an inhibitor for myeloid activation has emerged ...

This study provides proof-of-principle data for the use of trained immunity to modulate macrophage interactions with tumours. The study makes a valuable contribution to the field of trained immunity.

However, this needs to be confirmed in an independent follow-up study. As calprotectin reflects phagocyte activation due to any cause, a large number of inflammatory conditions may lead to moderately ...
