Innate Lymphoid Cells in Tissue Homeostasis and Diseases
MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a heterogeneous group of immune cells with phenotypic and functional plasticity. ILCs dynamically regulate various immune cell types and play a crucial role in the pathophysiological processes of specific organs during sepsis. Targeting ILCs is a promising strategy for treating sepsis.

[Scorpion toxins and defensins].
Comptes rendus des seances de la Societe de biologie et de ses filiales, 1998 Les venins de scorpion contiennent un grand nombre de neurotoxines peptidiques qui constituent un ensemble de familles moléculaires à haut degré de polymorphisme, mais qui ont en commun une architecture semblable. Cette architecture se retrouve dans des peptides antibactériens circulants de la famille des défensines, qui s'apparentent tout ...

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 5, May 2026.A Bruchs membrane (BrM) mimic based on aged decellularized BrM was developed and differentially expressed proteins in aged dECM‐BrM that may provide specific biochemical cues fundamental to model AMD in vitro were identified. RPE culture on aged dECM‐BrM developed certain AMD‐like features including reduced TEER and expression of drusen components ...

Beyond the Barrier: Epithelial Cells as Immune Sentinels in the Female Genital Tract
American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 95, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Epithelial cells (ECs) of the female genital tract (FGT) serve as an essential barrier and the first line of defense against sexually transmitted pathogens. Beyond providing a physical barrier, these cells actively contribute to immune responses through pathogen recognition, cytokine release, and modulation of adaptive immune responses ...

Anaerobe‐Driven Inflammation and Epithelial Barrier Disruption in Genital HIV Acquisition
American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 95, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Background Genital microbiome dysbiosis is an important risk factor for the sexual acquisition of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in both the male and female genital tracts. The vaginal, penile and urethral mucosae are distinct microenvironments with characteristic microbiome compositions.
