Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.

Deciphering the Heterogeneity of Pulmonary Macrophages in Response to Fine Particles
This study introduces a dual‐labeled gold nanoparticle model to capture particle–responsive cells via integrating fluorescence‐activated cell sorting and single‐cell RNA sequencing. Fourteen macrophage subsets are identified with response and function heterogeneity, among which AMs_3, AMs_7, and recMacs_4 subsets show stronger phagocytic activation ...

This proteomic study examines how nanofibers affect lung macrophages by analyzing protein changes following exposure to various fibrous materials. Nanofibers triggered the release of inflammatory enzymes, and importantly, lysosomal content release was identified as an early event associated with frustrated phagocytosis. Seventeen sensitive and relevant

Clinical periodontal diagnosis
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

Abstract Background Updated targets for measuring transfer of passive immunity (TPI) at the herd level have been suggested, but the current performance of dairy herds in Great Britain is unknown. Methods A cross‐sectional study was performed. Serum total protein (STP) data collected between October 2022 and October 2023 by 21 veterinary practices were ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...
