Targeting neutrophil extracellular traps in metabolic and immune niche: Nanomaterials for diabetes tissue regeneration

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The effects of NETs on regeneration of various diabetic tissues, and strategies targeting NETs for diabetes tissue regeneration. In the diabetic environment, NETs undergo complex metabolic and immune reprogramming, leading to dynamic changes in antibacterial and proinflammatory functions, and affecting regeneration of multiple systemic tissues.

Self-recognition through Dectin-1 exacerbates liver inflammation. [PDF]

Genes Cells
AbstractDectin‐1 is a well‐characterized C‐type lectin receptor involved in anti‐fungal immunity through the recognition of polysaccharides; however, molecular mechanisms and outcomes initiated through self‐recognition have not been fully understood. Here, we purified a water‐soluble fraction from mouse liver that acts as a Dectin‐1 agonist. To address

Phosphorylation of CLEC-2 is dependent on lipid rafts, actin polymerization,secondary mediators, and Rac [PDF]

, 2010
The C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2)activates platelets through Src and Syk tyrosine kinases via a single cytoplasmic YxxL motif known as a hem immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (hemITAM).Here, we demonstrate using sucrose gradient ...

Engineering Lipid Nanoparticles for Precision RNA Delivery: Design Principles, Targeting Strategies, and Clinical Prospects

Cancer Nexus, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) represent the most clinically advanced platform for RNA delivery and have enabled major breakthroughs in vaccines and gene therapies. However, their broader application is still limited by inefficient extrahepatic delivery, immunogenicity, and insufficient control over tissue‐ and cell‐specific targeting. This review

MBL-mediated opsonophagocytosis of Candida albicans by human neutrophils is coupled with intracellular Dectin-1-triggered ROS production.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Mannan-binding lectin (MBL), a lectin homologous to C1q, greatly facilitates C3/C4-mediated opsonophagocytosis of Candida albicans (C. albicans) by human neutrophils, and has the capacity to bind to CR1 (CD35) expressed on circulating neutrophils.

Blocking Dectin-1 prevents colorectal tumorigenesis by suppressing prostaglandin E2 production in myeloid-derived suppressor cells and enhancing IL-22 binding protein expression

Nature Communications, 2023
The effect of β-glucans and their receptor Dectin-1 in tumor development remains controversial. Here the authors show that Dectin-1 signaling promotes the development of colorectal cancer (CRC) by inducing prostaglandin E2 production in myeloid-derived ...

Targeting self- and foreign antigens to dendritic cells via DC-ASGPR generates IL-10-producing suppressive CD4+ T cells [PDF]

, 2012
Dendritic cells (DCs) can initiate and shape host immune responses toward either immunity or tolerance by their effects on antigen-specific CD4(+) T cells.

A Novel Neutral Polysaccharide From Bamboo Shoot Processing Liquid: Structural Characterization and In Vitro TLR4/NF‐κB Mediated Anti‐Inflammatory Activity

Food Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Value‐added utilization of resources can be developed from by‐products of agricultural processing. In this study, a neutral polysaccharide (BSLP‐1, 19,799 Da) was obtained from bamboo shoot processing liquid. Structurally, BSLP‐1 has a backbone of →4)‐α‐D‐Glcp‐(1→ and →4,6)‐α‐D‐Glcp‐(1→, with side chains of →5)‐α‐L‐Araf‐(1→ and α‐D‐Glcp‐(1→6 ...

Cryptococcus gattii alters immunostimulatory potential in response to the environment.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Cryptococcus gattii is a capsular fungal pathogen, which causes life-threatening cryptococcosis in immunocompetent individuals. This emerging pathogen is less likely to be recognized by innate immunity compared to traditional Cryptococcus neoformans ...
