Positron Emission Tomography Imaging of Bacterial Infections With an Enterobactin Analog to Monitor Treatment Efficacy With a Catechol Antibiotic

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Synopsis. The [68Ga]GaIII‐TREN‐CAM radiochelate selectively accumulates in Gram‐negative sites of infection and noninvasively monitors treatment response a siderophore antibiotic. ABSTRACT Positron emission tomography (PET) is an emerging tool under clinical investigation for the detection of bacterial infections.

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis suppresses host antimicrobial peptides by dehydrogenating L-alanine

Nature Communications
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), ancient scavengers of bacteria, are very poorly induced in macrophages infected by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis), but the underlying mechanism remains unknown.

PD‐1 Inhibits CD4+ TRM‐Mediated cDC1 Mobilization via Suppressing JAML in Human NSCLC

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CD4+ tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRMs) in non‐small cell lung cancer recruit conventional type 1 dendritic cells via XCL1‐XCR1 signaling, orchestrating antitumor immunity. The costimulatory molecule JAML is essential for this process. PD‐1 blockade restores JAML expression and cDC1 mobilization, while JAML agonists synergize with anti‐PD‐1 therapy,

Current landscape of exosomes in tuberculosis development, diagnosis, and treatment applications

Frontiers in Immunology
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by the bacterial pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), remains one of the most prevalent and deadly infectious diseases worldwide. Currently, there are complex interactions between host cells and pathogens in TB. The onset,

Macrophage–Derived Ferritin Exacerbates Silica‐Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis via PIK3R2‐Mediated Fibroblast Differentiation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies ferritin as a pivotal mediator of silica‐induced pulmonary fibrosis. Macrophage‐derived ferritin drives fibroblast‐to‐myofibroblast differentiation via the PIK3R2/SMAD pathway, while ferritin knockdown alleviates fibrosis. These findings define ferritin as both a biomarker and pathogenic driver, highlighting ferritin‐PIK3R2 ...

Identification of Mannose‐Capped‐Arabinomannan 101‐mer as a Potential Influenza Virus Vaccine Adjuvant

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Well‐defined and synthetic mannose‐capped arabinomannan 101‐mer from Mycobacterium tuberculosis cell wall was identified as a potent influenza vaccine adjuvant, boosting the antibody response, realizing full protection and showing excellent safety. ABSTRACT Many natural bacterial components as adjuvants can activate the host immune system, but the ...

Macrophage Extracellular Traps in Immunity and Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
As a macrophage‐mediated innate defense mechanism, the dysregulated release of METs drives chronic inflammation and influences tumor progression. Furthermore, METs exhibit a functional duality within the tumor microenvironment, capable of both promoting and suppressing tumor development.
