Protocol to measure human IL-6 secretion from CAR T cell-primed macrophage and monocyte lineage cells in vitro and in vivo using humanized mice

STAR Protocols
Summary: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy often causes serious toxicities, such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS), mainly due to interleukin-6 (IL-6) secreted by monocyte lineage cells.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Legionella pneumophila temporally regulates the activity of ADP/ATP translocases by reversible ADP‐ribosylation

mLife, 2022
The mitochondrion is an important signaling hub that governs diverse cellular functions, including metabolism, energy production, and immunity. Among the hundreds of effectors translocated into host cells by the Dot/Icm system of Legionella pneumophila ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Cell-Mediated Proteomics, and Serological and Mucosal Humoral Immune Responses after Seasonal Influenza Immunization: Characterization of Serological Responders and Non-Responders

Vaccines
Immunization against influenza through vaccination is the most effective method with which to prevent infection. To assess protection after immunization, analysing humoral response with a hemagglutinin inhibition assay is the gold standard, but cell ...

Immune responses to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and their application for cancer treatment

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2016
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a prototypic cell-surface receptor belonging to the ErbB/HER onocogene family. Overexpression or somatic mutations of EGFR have been reported to play an important role in tumorigenesis in various types of ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

αTIGIT-IL2 achieves tumor regression by promoting tumor-infiltrating regulatory T cell fragility in mouse models

Nature Communications
Administration of IL-2 may promote the suppressive function and proliferation of Treg cells that cause immune tolerance in patients with cancer, which causes low-dose IL-2 to fail in achieving an optimal anti-tumor effect.
