Age-related changes to macrophages are detrimental to fracture healing in mice. [PDF]
The elderly population suffers from higher rates of complications during fracture healing that result in increased morbidity and mortality. Inflammatory dysregulation is associated with increased age and is a contributing factor to the myriad of age ...

Tuberculosis (TB) caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection is the deadliest infectious disease and a global health problem. Macrophages (Mφs) and neutrophils that can phagocytose Mtb represent the first line of immune response to infection ...

PTEN inhibits AMPK to control collective migration
Pten is a tumour suppressor gene that is associated with highly invasive cancers such as glioblastoma. Here the authors show that PTEN loss results in increased migratory behaviour, which can be countered by targeting AMPK activity.

Intracellular Accumulation of Novel and Clinically Used TB Drugs Potentiates Intracellular Synergy
The therapeutic repertoire for tuberculosis (TB) remains limited despite the existence of many TB drugs that are highly active in in vitro models and possess clinical utility.

Tissue-Resident Macrophages in the Stria Vascularis
Tissue-resident macrophages play an important role in clearance, development, and regulation of metabolism. They also function as sentinel immune cells, initiating inflammatory responses, clearing inflammatory debris, and maintaining homeostatic tissue ...

Macrophages promote the progression of premalignant mammary lesions to invasive cancer. [PDF]
Breast cancer initiation, progression and metastasis rely on a complex interplay between tumor cells and their surrounding microenvironment. Infiltrating immune cells, including macrophages, promote mammary tumor progression and metastasis; however, less

Despite aggressive clinical treatment, recurrence of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is unavoidable, and the clinical outcome is still poor. A convincing explanation is the phenotypic transition of GBM cells upon aggressive treatment such as radiotherapy ...
