The effects of C5aR1 on leukocyte infiltration following pilocarpine‐induced status epilepticus [PDF]
SummaryThis study aimed to determine the role C5aR1 plays in mediating immune responses acutely after pilocarpine‐induced status epilepticus (SE), specifically those of brain‐infiltrating leukocytes. Three days following pilocarpine SE, we determined by flow cytometry the brain immune cell phenotypes and measured key proinflammatory and ...

Integrative multi‐omics analysis delineates a mitochondrial–immune axis governing neoadjuvant chemotherapy response in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer. Immune‐active tumors exhibit enhanced B‐cell infiltration and favorable sensitivity, whereas metabolically rewired tumors display oxidative phosphorylation dependency and resistance.

Multimodal Imaging Reveals Rapid Catecholamine Uptake and Release by Neutrophils
We show that immune cells (neutrophils) synthesize, uptake, and store catecholamine neurotransmitters such as dopamine or adrenaline. They also release them in response to specific stimuli (serotonin), which we directly visualize using fluorescent nanosensors. We further demonstrate that catecholamines affect neutrophil functions (NETosis) and platelet

Our previous work using a murine model of pyelonephritis demonstrated that the C5a/C5aR1 axis plays a pathogenic role in acute kidney infection. In this study, we report that the C5a/C5aR1 axis also plays a pathogenic role in acute bladder infection ...

Abstract Infantile epilepsy spasms syndrome (IESS), formerly known as infantile spasms or West Syndrome, is a severe epilepsy syndrome affecting about 3 in 10,000 newborns in the United States. Characterized by clusters of epileptic spasms, interictal hypsarrhythmia, and developmental delays, IESS has diverse causes, including structural‐metabolic ...

ABSTRACT Despite substantial clinical benefit from immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), advanced melanoma remains challenging due to frequent treatment resistance. Resistance may be intrinsic (primary) or emerge over time (secondary). Biomarkers predicting distinct resistance phenotypes before therapy are lacking.

C5aR1+ macrophages are involved in the progression of endometriosis
Objective: Immune dysfunction plays an important role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. C5a, a by-product of complement activation, binds to its receptor (C5a receptor 1, C5aR1) in various cells, including macrophages. The combination of C5a and C5aR1 in macrophages induces M2 polarization. There is no consistent conclusion
