Beyond CCR7: dendritic cell migration in type 2 inflammation
Frontiers in ImmunologyConventional dendritic cells (cDCs) are crucial antigen-presenting cells that initiate and regulate T cell responses, thereby shaping immunity against pathogens, innocuous antigens, tumors, and self-antigens. The migration of cDCs from peripheral tissues

Emergence of collective propulsion through cell-cell adhesion [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 97, 042413 (2018), 2017 The mechanisms driving the collective movement of cells remain poorly understood. To contribute toward resolving this mystery, a model was formulated to theoretically explore the possible functions of polarized cell-cell adhesion in collective cell migration. The model consists of an amoeba cell with polarized cell-cell adhesion, which is controlled by

Leukotrienes provide an NFAT-dependent signal that synergizes with IL-33 to activate ILC2s. [PDF]
, 2016 Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) and type 2 helper T cells (Th2 cells) are the primary source of interleukin 5 (IL-5) and IL-13 during type 2 (allergic) inflammation in the lung.

Allergen-specific Th2 cells as targets for immune intervention in allergic disease
Allergology International, 1996 Allergen-specific Th2 cells from atopic individuals generally belong to the T helper 2 (Th2) subset producing, among other cytokines, high levels of IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13, but low levels of IL-2 and IFN-γ following activation.

Stable T-bet(+)GATA-3(+) Th1/Th2 hybrid cells arise in vivo, can develop directly from naive precursors, and limit immunopathologic inflammation. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2013 Differentiated T helper (Th) cell lineages are thought to emerge from alternative cell fate decisions. However, recent studies indicated that differentiated Th cells can adopt mixed phenotypes during secondary immunological challenges.

A cell membrane model that reproduces cortical flow-driven cell migration and collective movement [PDF]
, 2023 Many fundamental biological processes are dependent on cellular migration. Although the mechanical mechanisms of single-cell migration are relatively well understood, those underlying migration of multiple cells adhered to each other in a cluster, referred to as cluster migration, are poorly understood.

Cancer Research, 2016 Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) trials to date have focused on transfer of autologous tumor-specific cytotoxic CD8+ T cells; however, the potential of CD4+ T helper (Th) cells for ACT is gaining interest.

Inhibitory control of feature selectivity in an object motion sensitive circuit of the retina [PDF]
, 2017 Object motion sensitive (OMS) W3-retinal ganglion cells (W3-RGCs) in mice respond to local movements in a visual scene but remain silent during self-generated global image motion. The excitatory inputs that drive responses of W3-RGCs to local motion were

Interleukin 4 promotes the development of ex-Foxp3 Th2 cells during immunity to intestinal helminths
Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2017 Immunity to intestinal helminth infections requires the rapid activation of T helper 2 cells (Th2 cells). However, simultaneous expansion of CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (T reg cells) impedes protective responses, resulting in chronic infections.
