SHIP1 regulates TREM2 signalling and macrophage functions in a hiPSC‐derived model
In this study, we characterised the role of SHIP1 in regulating TREM2 signalling and global microglial myeloid functions using human‐induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)‐derived macrophages. Knockout of SHIP1 (SHIP1 KO) in macrophages decreased inflammatory activation and levels of scavenger receptors. SHIP1 KO macrophages also exhibited reduced TREM2

A guide to studying tumour‐T‐cell interactions using in vitro coculture assays
In vitro tumour‐T‐cell coculture systems provide a controlled way to study how T cells recognise and kill tumour cells. Different tumour models can be combined with antigen‐specific TCR or CAR T cells, while antigen presentation, cytokines, drugs and tumour genetics can be manipulated.

ABSTRACT Introduction Apical periodontitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease of the periapical tissues driven by host responses to endodontic infection, and systemic metabolic disturbances, such as high‐fat diet (HFD)–induced dysmetabolism, may exacerbate tissue destruction. This study aimed to determine how chronic HFD exposure alters periapical myeloid

Interleukin‐12: Central Roles in Immune Regulation and Disease Therapy
IL‐12 levels are tightly regulated to balance effective protective immunity against infections and cancer with the risk of excessive inflammation and autoimmune disease. Both insufficient and excessive IL‐12 activity can therefore be detrimental, highlighting the importance of precisely controlling its production and signaling. ABSTRACT Interleukin‐12 (

The roles of distinct lung neutrophil compartments involved in hvKp infection remain poorly understood. Here, utilising single‐cell RNA sequencing, we identified four neutrophil subsets in the lungs of hvKp‐infected mice: N1, N2, N3a, and N3b, which were organised along a maturation trajectory.

Genomic and proteomic insights into hidradenitis suppurativa
A dual pathogenic model of HS involving both epithelial dysfunction and systemic inflammation is supported. The HLA‐DRA association hints at autoimmune overlap, but the proteomic signature which is dominated by innate immune mediators favours an autoinflammatory classification, which may guide future therapeutic strategies and patient stratification ...

20th Anniversary of human‐induced pluripotent stem cells and the role of microscopy
Abstract It has been 20 years since the pioneering work of Shinya Yamanaka and Kazutoshi Takahashi at Kyoto University led to the first successful generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from mouse embryonic and adult fibroblast cells. iPSCs have the capacity to differentiate into any type of cell in the human body, and as such, they have ...
