The complement system at the embryo implantation site: friend or foe?
An inflammatory-like process and vascular remodeling represent the main changes that occur in decidua in the early phase of pregnancy. These changes are partly induced by trophoblast cells that colonize the decidua and are also contributed by the ...

ABSTRACT Photobacteriosis is a major threat to marine aquaculture, and the siderophore transporter FrpA represents a promising target for effective subunit vaccine development. In this study, we evaluated Montanide GEL 02 PR and phosphatidylcholine‐based liposomes as aqueous and safer alternatives to Freund's adjuvant for an FrpA‐based subunit vaccine ...

TREM2hi microglia and macrophages exert distinct roles in neurological diseases. Enhancing TREM2 signalling supports pathological protein or debris clearance and mitigates inflammation in Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, demyelination disorders and stroke, whereas blocking TREM2 may alleviate tauopathy and ...

Zebrafish pde6c mutants undergo photoreceptor degeneration from 5 dpf, but rods regenerate from 4 wpf. scRNA‐seq of retinal microglia reveals dynamic change of states between 5 dpf and 4 wpf. Two states emerge specifically during regeneration. ABSTRACT Microglia, brain‐resident immune cells, maintain brain homeostasis.

The Role of Neutrophils and NETosis in Diseases: The Implications for Therapy
Neutrophils secrete cytokines, express specific surface proteins, increase or decrease in cell count, and their ratio to lymphocyte count can be used as biomarkers to characterize collective status and disease progression. Neutrophils can monitor and track the body's health status, “Wei Bing” status, disease status, and different times of disease ...

Activation of the Lectin Pathway Drives Persistent Complement Dysregulation in Long COVID
The complement cascade, a series of blood proteins that assists in the recognition and neutralisation of pathogens, either independently or in conjunction with antibodies, is persistently activated in patients with long COVID. We found that blood plasma samples from patients with long COVID contained elevated concentrations of the mannan‐binding lectin‐

Tandem VHH targeting distinct EGFR epitopes were engineered into a monovalent bispecific antibody (7D12‐EGA1‐Fc) with more potent ADCC without increasing affinity to EGFR. Structural modeling of 7D12‐EGA1‐Fc showed cross‐linking of separate EGFR domains to enhance CD16a engagement on NK cells.

A gorilla adenovirus-based vaccine against Zika virus induces durable immunity and confers protection in pregnancy [PDF]
The teratogenic potential of Zika virus (ZIKV) has made the development of an effective vaccine a global health priority. Here, we generate two gorilla adenovirus-based ZIKV vaccines that encode for pre-membrane (prM) and envelope (E) proteins (GAd-Zvp ...
