Antimicrobial peptide LL-37 and recombinant human mannose-binding lectin express distinct age- and pathogen-specific antimicrobial activity in human newborn cord blood in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: There is a need to prevent and treat infection in newborns. One approach is administration of antimicrobial proteins and peptides (APPs) such as LL-37, a membrane-active cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide, and mannose-binding lectin (MBL), a ...

Bionic Microneedle Patch Inspired by Drosophila Tarsal Paws Boosts Healing in Bacterial Infectious Stomatitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Microneedle suction cup patches, prepared using bionic Drosophila tarsal claws, can effectively treat bacterial infectious stomatitis by rapidly and efficiently leveraging multiple effects, including antibacterial and anti‐inflammatory properties, promotion of vasodilation, and active mechanical contraction of the wound.

Identifying Myeloid‐Derived Suppressor Cells and Lipocalin‐2 as Therapeutic Targets for Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inflammatory dysregulation drives intervertebral disc degeneration via stage‐dependent immune cellular dynamics. Single‐cell transcriptomics and genetic risk mapping revealed a shift from LCN2high myeloid‐derived suppressor cells maintaining disc repair in early stages to IL1B+ macrophage‐dominated pathology in advanced disease.

Inhibition of Phosphodiesterase 10A by MP‐10 Rescues Behavioral Deficits and Normalizes Microglial Morphology and Synaptic Pruning in A Mouse Model of FOXP1 Syndrome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that Foxp1± mice, modeling FOXP1 haploinsufficiency, exhibit behavioral deficits, striatal neuroinflammatory changes including altered microglial complexity and synaptic pruning, and markedly reduced Pde10a expression. Pde10a inhibition starting immediately after birth restores Foxp1± behavior, microglial morphology, and pruning ...

The Role of MCPIP1 in Macrophage Polarization and Cardiac Function Post‐Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Following myocardial infarction, MCPIP1 deficiency in macrophages triggers ferroptosis, driving proinflammatory M1 dominance over reparative M2 phenotypes. This imbalance amplifies splenic monocyte release and sustains cardiac inflammation. Concurrently, excessive inflammatory mediators and insufficient TGF‐β impair fibroblast activation, delaying ...
