Highly Pathogenic PRRSV-Infected Alveolar Macrophages Impair the Function of Pulmonary Microvascular Endothelial Cells

Weifeng Sun et al.

Summary: This study characterized the dynamic transcriptome landscapes of porcine pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) during porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection. The dysregulation of TJ proteins was found to be related to the increased permeability of PMVECs. These findings provide valuable clues for further understanding the role of PMVECs in PRRSV-induced acute lung injury (ALI).

Computer-aided prediction and design of IL-6 inducing peptides: IL-6 plays a crucial role in COVID-19

Anjali Dhall et al.

Summary: IL-6 plays a crucial role in the progression of COVID-19, and a method for predicting IL-6 inducing peptides has been developed using machine learning techniques. By identifying IL-6 inducing peptides in different proteins of SARS-CoV-2, the study offers new insights for designing vaccines against COVID-19.

The blood-gas barrier in COVID-19: an overview of the effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on the alveolar epithelial and endothelial cells of the lung

Milad Shirvaliloo

Summary: COVID-19 affects the blood-gas barrier by damaging alveolar epithelial cells and endothelial cells, triggering an inflammatory response and release of cytokines, ultimately leading to disintegration and thickening of the blood-gas barrier, resulting in hypoxia.

Distinct developmental pathways from blood monocytes generate human lung macrophage diversity

Elza Evren et al.

Summary: This study investigates the development of lung macrophages from human hematopoiesis using a humanized mouse model. The results show that different types of blood monocytes generate macrophages in distinct anatomical niches in the lung. Additionally, single-cell RNA sequencing reveals intermediate differentiation stages in human lung macrophage development.

Macrophages: The Good, the Bad, and the Gluttony

Ewan R. A. Ross et al.

Summary: Macrophages play critical roles in sterile inflammation and autoimmune diseases, particularly in the pathophysiology of diseases like rheumatoid arthritis. Imbalance in macrophage homeostasis contributes to chronic inflammation, and therapeutic strategies targeting macrophage plasticity are being explored. Apoptotic cell-derived extracellular vesicles may play a role in regulating macrophage phenotype and are a potential target for new therapeutic approaches.
