Immunology Today, 1986 Investigators from Canada, several European countries, Israel, the Republic of South Africa and the United States of America met earlier this year∗ to discuss whether or not George Bernard Shaw's exhortation to stimulate the phagocytes' pertains equally to host defense against neoplastic cells and microorganisms.

False friends: Phagocytes as Trojan horses in microbial brain infections
PLoS Pathogens, 2017 Humans are constantly exposed to pathogenic microbes. The first line of cellular host defense is composed of “professional” phagocytes, cells that efficiently recognize pathogens, internalize them, and then marshal an array of antimicrobial mechanisms to

Kidney surveillance in the spotlight: contrast-induced acute kidney injury illuminated [PDF]
, 2018 Acute kidney injury comprises a heterogeneous group of conditions characterized by a sudden decrease in renal function over hours to days. Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is caused by radiographic contrast agents used in diagnostic imaging.

Synthetic Nanobiology Actuated Lipometabolic Cell Factory for Autologous Tumor Immunotherapy
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.FA plays a crucial role in the interaction between tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment, especially for the immune response. A biocatalytic immunoenhancement strategy is developed to boost antitumor immunity by FA metabolic orientation to ceramide. Through the design of this delicate catalytic immunoenhancement strategy, the synthetic nanobiology

Cold Quad‐Modal Nanocomplex for Precise and Quantitative In Vivo Stem Cell Tracking
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Multimodal albumin–bismuth sulfide–superparamagnetic iron oxide (ABS) nanocomplexes are developed for stem cell tracking across four different imaging modalities: MRI, MPI, MSOT, and CT. Combining its flexibility with high sensitivity, this quad‐modal imaging agent enables a robust quantification of ABS‐labeled stem cells in vivo.

Dysregulation of of phospholipid-specific phagocytosis by B1 B cells in diet-induced obese mice [PDF]
, 2016 B1 B cells have received increasing attention recently due to their newly discovered phagocytic and microbicidal capabilities. Several studies have demonstrated that B1 cells can phagocytize polystyrene fluorescent particles, bacteria (Staphylococcus ...

Developmental Cell, 2016 2016 marks the centenary of the death of Elie Metchnikoff, whose 19th-century studies of starfish larvae led to the description of immune cell phagocytosis. This discovery, along with follow-up studies, earned Metchnikoff the 1908 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. We have come a long way since those early discoveries. A hundred years later, we now
