Combined glyphosate and chlorpyrifos-based pesticides impair innate and adaptive immune functions: an in vitro approach [PDF]
Background The widespread use of pesticides, including glyphosate-based herbicides (e.g., Roundup®, R) and chlorpyrifos-based insecticides (e.g., Clorpi48®, C), has raised concerns about their environmental and human health impacts.

What immunology has to say about pesticide safety [PDF]
The use of pesticides has enabled the development of contemporary industrial agriculture and significantly increased crop yields. However, they are also considered a source of environmental pollution and a potential hazard to human health.

Bile acids attenuate PKM2 pathway activation in proinflammatory microglia
Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate. Central nervous system (CNS) pathologies, such as spinal cord injury (SCI) and ischemia, are accompanied by an increase of the glycolytic pathway in the damaged areas as part of the

The MICA-NKG2D axis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma bolsters MICA as target in immuno-oncology
NKG2D is a major natural killer (NK) cell-activating receptor that recognizes eight ligands (NKG2DLs), including MICA, and whose engagement triggers NK cell effector functions.

Restoration of antitumor immunity through anti-MICA antibodies elicited with a chimeric protein
Background Natural killer and cytotoxic CD8+ T cells are major players during antitumor immunity. They express NKG2D, an activating receptor that promotes tumor elimination through recognition of the MHC class I chain-related proteins A and B (MICA and ...
