Pleural innate response activator B cells protect against pneumonia via a GM-CSF-IgM axis [PDF]
Pneumonia is a major cause of mortality worldwide and a serious problem in critical care medicine, but the immunophysiological processes that confer either protection or morbidity are not completely understood. We show that in response to lung infection,

Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition in Human Alveolar Cells Exposed to Indium Chloride
ABSTRACT For workers in the industry, occupational exposure to indium compounds induces pulmonary disorders, such as interstitial pneumonia. Moreover, lung cancer has been reported in both humans and rodents exposed to indium compounds by inhalation. However, the biological mechanism underlying indium‐induced disorders is poorly understood.

Early IL‐1 Inhibition in Still's Disease: A Window of Opportunity for Improving Outcomes
Objective Still's disease is a complex, multisystemic disorder requiring prompt diagnosis and treatment. This study provides a general assessment of a Still's disease cohort aiming to evaluate the efficacy of early intervention with interleukin‐1 inhibitors (IL‐1i) in achieving clinical inactive disease (CID) and reducing glucocorticoid use in patients

Niche signals and transcription factors involved in tissue-resident macrophage development [PDF]
Tissue-resident macrophages form an essential part of the first line of defense in all tissues of the body. Next to their immunological role, they play an important role in maintaining tissue homeostasis. Recently, it was shown that they are primarily of

The Paradox of Metachronous Lipoid Pneumonia
This is a case of recurrent exogenous lipoid pneumonia in a single patient caused by multiple unrelated substances. This case underscores the diagnostic value of radiologic patterns, the significance of meticulous exposure history, and the necessity of contemplating alternative aetiologies in patients with new infiltrates during cancer therapy ...

Macrophages: Subtypes, Distribution, Polarization, Immunomodulatory Functions, and Therapeutics
Macrophages originate from the yolk sac, fetal liver, and bone marrow, differentiating into two main subtypes: M1‐like (proinflammatory) and M2‐like (anti‐inflammatory). These subtypes exhibit high plasticity, allowing them to transform in response to environmental cues or therapeutic interventions.
