Brucella NyxA and NyxB dimerization enhances effector function during infection
Brucella abortus thrives inside cells thanks to the translocation of effector proteins that fine‐tune cellular functions. NyxA and NyxB are two effectors that destabilize the nucleolar localization of their host target, SENP3. We show that the Nyx proteins directly interact with each other and that their dimerization is essential for their function ...

Macrophage-derived upd3 Cytokine causes impaired glucose homeostasis and reduced lifespan in drosophila fed a lipid-rich diet [PDF]
Long-term consumption of fatty foods is associated with obesity, macrophage activation and inflammation, metabolic imbalance, and a reduced lifespan. We took advantage of Drosophila genetics to investigate the role of macrophages and the pathway(s) that ...

Circulating histones as clinical biomarkers in critically ill conditions
Circulating histones are emerging as promising biomarkers in critical illness due to their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential. Detection methods such as ELISA and mass spectrometry provide reliable approaches for quantifying histone levels in plasma samples.

Cholesterol Efflux and Collateral Circulation in Chronic Total Coronary Occlusion: Effect‐Circ Study
Background The mechanism through which high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) induces cardioprotection is not completely understood. We evaluated the correlation between cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC), a functional parameter of HDL, and coronary collateral ...

Single‐cell insights into the role of T cells in B‐cell malignancies
Single‐cell technologies have transformed our understanding of T cell–tumor cell interactions in B‐cell malignancies, revealing new T‐cell subsets, functional states, and immune evasion mechanisms. This Review synthesizes these findings, highlighting the roles of T cells in pathogenesis, progression, and therapy response, and underscoring their ...

Controlled Surface Adhesion of Macrophages via Patterned Antifouling Polymer Brushes
Macrophages will play an important role in future diagnostics and immunotherapies of cancer. However, this demands to selectively capture and sort different subpopulations, which remains a challenge due to their innate ability to bind to a wide range of ...

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

ACTIVATION OF CYTOTOXIC MACROPHAGE WITH MACROPHAGE
Mouse peritoneal exudate macrophages induced by peptone (macrophages) were activated with a lymphokine, macrophage activating factor (MAF), and became cytotoxic against various tumor cells. Peritoneal resident adherent-cells from normal mice were not activated with MAF.When macrophages were incubated with aggregated human immunoglobulin G (agg-HGG) for
