Homeostasis of Gut Microbiota Protects against Susceptibility to Fungal Pneumonia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Fungal pneumonia induces inflammation, shown by heightened IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α levels and a growth in Staphylococcus in the alveolar flora. The gut microbiota, acting through the gut‐lung axis via blood, impacts fungal pneumonia susceptibility by altering lung metabolism and inflammatory responses.

A Human Immuno‐Lung Organoid Model to Study Macrophage‐Mediated Lung Cell Senescence Upon SARS‐CoV‐2 Infection

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Immuno‐lung organoids are developed and used spatial transcriptomics to uncover how proinflammatory macrophages drive lung cell senescence via the THBS1–(ITGA3+ITGB1) axis in COVID‐19. To ensure broad accessibility, LungSpatialDB is created, an AI‐powered data portal, enabling intuitive exploration of spatial data and biological insights through ...
