Pathological inflammation in patients with COVID-19: a key role for monocytes and macrophages
The COVID-19 pandemic caused by infection with SARS-CoV-2 has led to more than 200,000 deaths worldwide. Several studies have now established that the hyperinflammatory response induced by SARS-CoV-2 is a major cause of disease severity and death in ...

Tissue-specific macrophages: how they develop and choreograph tissue biology
Macrophages are innate immune cells that form a 3D network in all our tissues, where they phagocytose dying cells and cell debris, immune complexes, bacteria and other waste products. Simultaneously, they produce growth factors and signalling molecules —

The complex TIE between macrophages and angiogenesis [PDF]
Macrophages are primarily known as phagocytic immune cells, but they also play a role in diverse processes, such as morphogenesis, homeostasis and regeneration.

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 ...

Macrophages are a diverse population of phagocytic cells that reside in tissues throughout the body. At sites of infection, macrophages encounter and engulf invading microbes. Accordingly, macrophages possess specialized effector functions to kill or coordinate the elimination of their prey.

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.

Anti-PD-1 therapy activates tumoricidic properties of NKT cells and contributes to the overall deceleration of tumor progression in a model of murine mammary carcinoma [PDF]
Background/Aim. Immune checkpoint therapy is a well-established therapeutic approach in the treatment of malignant diseases and is thought to be mostly based on facilitating the adaptive immune response.
