PFKFB2‐Driven Glycolysis Promotes Dendritic Cell Maturation and Exacerbates Acute Lung Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Paraquat (PQ) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure activates the HIF‐1α–PFKFB2 pathway, driving glycolysis in dendritic cells (DCs). This metabolic shift enhances DC maturation and immune activation, exacerbating acute lung injury (ALI). This study demonstrates that PFKFB2‐driven glycolytic reprogramming in DCs plays a critical role in the pathogenesis

Engineered Dual‐Function Antibody‐Like Proteins to Combat SARS‐CoV‐2‐Induced Immune Dysregulation and Inflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Engineered antibody‐like proteins block the SARS‐CoV‐2 spike protein from binding to host receptors and suppress immune overactivation through an MBL‐based scaffold. These dual‐function proteins effectively alleviate inflammation, complement activation, and lung injury, offering a promising therapeutic strategy against severe COVID‐19 and its ...

Emergence of highly profibrotic and proinflammatory Lrat+Fbln2+ HSC subpopulation in alcoholic hepatitis

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (
