Altered Ratio of Dendritic Cell Subsets in Skin-Draining Lymph Nodes Promotes Th2-Driven Contact Hypersensitivity

Researchers demonstrated that altered dendritic cell representation in the skin-draining lymph nodes during sensitization to allergens caused Th2-driven contact hypersensitivity.

Mitochondrial Metabolic Reprogramming Controls the Induction of Immunogenic Cell Death and Efficacy of Chemotherapy in Bladder Cancer

Scientists showed that Mitomycin C (MMC) promoted immunogenic cell death (ICD) and in vivo tumor protection. MMC-induced ICD relied on metabolic reprogramming of tumor cells toward increased oxidative phosphorylation.

The Aging Transcriptome and Cellular Landscape of the Human Lung in Relation to SARS-CoV-2

Deconvolution analysis revealed that the proportions of alveolar type 2 cells, proliferating basal cells, goblet cells, and proliferating natural killer/T cells decreased with age, whereas alveolar fibroblasts, pericytes, airway smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells and IGSF21+ dendritic cells increased with age.

The Persistence of Interleukin-6 Is Regulated by a Blood Buffer System Derived from Dendritic Cells

Scientists found that conventional dendritic cells, defined in mice via expression of the transcription factor Zbtb46, were a major source of circulating sIL-6R and, thus, systemically regulated IL-6 signaling.

Impact of HLA Class I Allele-Level Mismatch on Viral Infection within 100 Days after Cord Blood Transplantation

Overall HLA class I mismatch was also a significant risk factor and the predictor of post-cord blood transplantation viral infection, probably due to the insufficient cytotoxic T cell recognition and dendritic cell priming.

The Pancancer Landscape of Wnt Family Expression Reveals Potential Biomarkers in Urinary System Tumors

Scientists showed that the Wnt family was extensively upregulated in and impacted the prognosis of patients with prostate adenocarcinoma and bladder urothelial carcinoma. Moreover, the Wnt family correlated with the levels of infiltrating immune cells, including B cells, CD4 + T cells, CD8 + T cells, neutrophils, macrophages, and dendritic cells.

B7-CD28 Co-Stimulation Modulates Central Tolerance via Thymic Clonal Deletion and Treg Generation Through Distinct Mechanisms

Scientists showed that B7-CD28 co-stimulation and B7 expression by specific antigen-presenting cell types were required for clonal deletion and for regulatory T cell generation from endogenous tissue-restricted antigen-specific thymocytes.
