Macrophage transactivation for chemokine production identified as a negative regulator of granulomatous inflammation using agent-based modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cellular activation in trans by interferons, cytokines and chemokines is a commonly recognized mechanism to amplify immune effector function and limit pathogen spread. However, an optimal host response also requires that collateral damage associated with

Comprehensive Insights into Tracheoesophageal Fistula Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, Treatment, and Future Directions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF), a pathological trachea‐esophagus connection, arises congenitally or from malignancy/radiotherapy/trauma, causing aspiration and malnutrition. Diagnosis utilizes imaging and endoscopy. Treatment ranges from endoscopic stenting to surgical repair and conservative management.

BCG‐Derived Outer Membrane Vesicles Induce TLR2‐Dependent Trained Immunity to Protect Against Polymicrobial Sepsis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
B‐OMVs, nanoscale vesicles derived from BCG, are identified as effective and safe inducers of trained immunity that protect against sepsis. Through TLR2‐mediated metabolic and epigenetic reprogramming of hematopoietic stem cells, B‐OMVs enhance inflammatory response and phagocytic activity.

A Zebrafish Model of Mycobacterium leprae Granulomatous Infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding the pathogenesis of leprosy granulomas has been hindered by a paucity of tractable experimental animal models. Mycobacterium leprae, which causes leprosy, grows optimally at approximately 30°C, so we sought to model granulomatous disease in

Granulomatous liver diseases

open access: yesHepatology Communications
A granuloma is a discrete collection of activated macrophages and other inflammatory cells. Hepatic granulomas can be a manifestation of localized liver disease or be a part of a systemic process, usually infectious or autoimmune. A liver biopsy is required for the detection and evaluation of granulomatous liver diseases.
