Histiocytes: Multifaceted Regulators of Health and Disease

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The mononuclear phagocyte system encompasses macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and monocytes. Tissue‐resident macrophages and dendritic cells arise during embryogenesis and are replenished either through self‐renewal or by monocytes during inflammation.

The Dual Role of the Gut Microbiota in Cancer Chemoresistance

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Comparison between Microbiota and Cancer therapy. ABSTRACT Chemoresistance is one of the primary reasons that cancer chemotherapy fails to deliver successful treatment outcomes and contributes to poor overall survival rates for patients with cancer. New research has begun to shed light on the effects of the gut microbiome (GM).

Engineered Bacterial Membranes as Next‐Generation Platforms for Cancer Immunotherapy

Small Science, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.
Engineered bacterial membrane platforms, including outer membrane vesicles, bacterial ghosts, genetically engineered membranes, and hybrid bacterial–tumor membranes, integrate tumor antigen presentation with intrinsic immune stimulation. These platforms promote dendritic‐cell activation, T‐cell priming, pyroptosis, and synergistic responses with ...

TLR5-deficiency controls dendritic cell subset development in an autoimmune diabetes-susceptible model

Frontiers in Immunology
IntroductionThe incidence of the autoimmune disease, type 1 diabetes (T1D), has been increasing worldwide and recent studies have shown that the gut microbiota are associated with modulating susceptibility to T1D.

Effect of Weight-Reduction in Obese Mice Lacking Toll-Like Receptor 5 and C57BL/6 Mice Fed a Low-Fat Diet

Mediators of Inflammation, 2015
Background. This study aims to investigate the effect of feeding low-fat diet (LFD) to diet-induced obesity (DIO) mice lacking TLR5 (TLR5−/−), which have a tendency to develop glucose intolerance with increased adiposity, compared to that in C57BL/6 mice.

To Move or Not to Move: When and How Bacteria Suppress Flagellar Motility

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 126, Issue 2, Page 173-189, August 2026.
Motility cessation in bacteria is a key regulatory strategy that provides multiple survival advantages including enhanced community cooperation, niche adaptation and evasion of host immune responses. This process is controlled by associated mechanisms such as post‐translational modifications and second messenger signalling that stabilise non‐motile ...

Toll Like Receptor 4: A Potential Link Between Obesity and Metabolic Diseases

Obesity Reviews, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological evidence shows that obesity increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind this connection remain underappreciated. The substantial impact of these disorders on global health has led to extensive research efforts aimed at identifying the pathophysiological links between them.

Pharmacology, Medicinal Chemistry, and Therapeutic Potential of Imidazoline Receptor Ligands

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Building on the excellent review article by Dardonville and Rozas (2004), this paper summarizes the most representative ligands of imidazoline receptors (IR; I1, I2, and I3) and updates their pharmacological profiles. Although not exhaustive, it provides a solid starting point for understanding the significance of I2 IRs as promising therapeutic ...

Pseudomonas evades immune recognition of flagellin in both mammals and plants.

PLoS Pathogens, 2011
The building blocks of bacterial flagella, flagellin monomers, are potent stimulators of host innate immune systems. Recognition of flagellin monomers occurs by flagellin-specific pattern-recognition receptors, such as Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) in ...
