Immune Exhaustion in Chronic Infection and Cancer: Signaling Pathways and Therapeutic Interventions

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Immune exhaustion is a well‐established hallmark of both cancer and chronic infection. This review proposes a novel “infection–exhaustion–tumor axis” framework, wherein chronic pathogens (e.g., oncogenic viruses) evade immune surveillance by hijacking inflammatory signaling to drive immune cell exhaustion, thereby creating immunosuppressive niches ...

CX3CR1 Polymorphisms are associated with atopy but not asthma in German children [PDF]

, 2007
Chemokines and their receptors are involved in many aspects of immunity. Chemokine CX3CL1, acting via its receptor CX3CR1, regulates monocyte migration and macrophage differentiation as well as T cell-dependent inflammation.

Timing of Glucocorticoid Treatment Dictates Glucocorticoid Receptor Actions Modulating the NLRP3‐Inflammasome Activation in Macrophages

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 3, 15 February 2026.
Utilizing a clinically relevant course of treatment, our study reveals that glucocorticoids protect against the late NLRP3 inflammasome activation regulating the IL‐1β secretion, the processing of GSDM‐D and pyroptosis following signal 2 stimulation. These potent anti‐inflammatory effects are mediated by the activation of GR signaling and the expansion

Microglia undergo disease‐associated transcriptional activation and CX3C motif chemokine receptor 1 expression regulates neurogenesis in the aged brain

Developmental Neurobiology
AbstractAdult neurogenesis continues throughout life but declines dramatically with age and in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. In parallel, microglia become activated resulting in chronic inflammation in the aged brain. A unique type of microglia, suggested to support neurogenesis, exists in the subventricular zone (SVZ), but ...

Rodent herpesvirus Peru encodes a secreted chemokine decoy receptor [PDF]

, 2013
Viruses have long been studied not only for their pathology and associated disease but also as model systems for understanding cellular and immunological processes. Rodent herpesvirus Peru (RHVP) is a recently characterized rhadinovirus related to murine

Heat Stress Modulates WDR5‐Mediated H3K4me3 Modification to Induce Melanogenesis via Activating CX3CL1/CX3CR1 Axis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, 3 February 2026.
This study elucidates the mechanism by which heat stress regulates skin pigmentation: heat stress upregulates CX3CL1 through the MYC‐WDR5‐H3K4me3 axis, thereby activating the CX3CL1/CX3CR1‐JNK signaling pathway and ultimately promoting melanogenesis. These findings provide novel potential therapeutic targets for pigmentary skin disorders.

Chemokine fractalkine/CX3CL1 negatively modulates active glutamatergic synapses in rat hippocampal neurons [PDF]

, 2006
We examined the effects of the chemokine fractalkine (CX3CL1) on EPSCs evoked by electrical stimulation of Schaffer collaterals in patch-clamped CA1 pyramidal neurons from rat hippocampal slices.

METTL5 Enables Immune Evasion of Liver Cancer via Chemokine mRNA Translation Regulation

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 11, 23 February 2026.
METTL5 reshapes the tumor immune microenvironment through ribosome 18S rRNA m6A modification to regulate the translation of chemokine mRNA. Targeting METTL5‐mediated immunosuppression unleashes anti‐tumor immunity and improves the efficacy of anti‐PD‐1 therapy.
