Gata6+large peritoneal macrophages: an evolutionarily conserved sentinel and effector system for infection and injury

Lilian Salm et al.

Summary: There are striking similarities between sea urchin cavity macrophage-like phagocytes (coelomocytes) and mammalian cavity macrophages in their location and behaviors. This review summarizes the evolving literature on Gata6+ large peritoneal macrophages (GLPMs), focusing on their ontogeny, responses to perturbations, such as rapid aggregation via coagulation, and potential roles in diseases like cancer. The author challenges the 50-year old phenomenon of the 'macrophage disappearance reaction' (MDR) and proposes the new term 'macrophage disturbance of homeostasis reaction' (MDHR) as a better description of this complex phenomenon.

Whole-mount immunofluorescence imaging and isolation of mesothelium-bound immune cell aggregates during mouse peritoneal inflammation

Margarita Ferriz et al.

Summary: This article presents a protocol for analyzing the structures formed by resident peritoneal macrophages in mouse models of peritoneal inflammation. The protocol involves dissection, fixation, staining, and imaging of the structures using confocal microscopy. Steps for isolating the structures for additional studies, such as flow cytometry and electron microscopy, are also described.

A common framework of monocyte-derived macrophage activation

David E. Sanin et al.

Summary: Macrophages display heterogeneity and different activation patterns in different organs and inflammatory conditions. By building a predictive model, we identified four conserved activation paths for macrophages. This integrative classification approach helps us understand and predict the activation patterns of macrophages in inflammation and homeostasis.

Metabolic Labeling-Based Chemoproteomics Establishes Choline Metabolites as Protein Function Modulators

Aditi Dixit et al.

Summary: Choline is an essential nutrient for mammalian cells, but our understanding of its cellular functions beyond choline lipid metabolism is limited. However, understanding the roles of choline metabolites is crucial for cancer biology. This study establishes a mammalian choline metabolite-interacting proteome using a photocrosslinkable choline probe, revealing the important role of choline metabolites in modulating protein function.

Macrophage polarization state affects lipid composition and the channeling of exogenous fatty acids into endogenous lipid pools

Pooranee K. Morgan et al.

Summary: This study reveals that interactions between adipose-tissue-resident macrophages and fatty acids play a crucial role in maintaining metabolic homeostasis and triggering inflammation. Different macrophage subsets exhibit distinct utilization of exogenous fatty acids, contributing to their sensitivity/resistance to inflammatory effects.

Lipid Profile of Activated Macrophages and Contribution of Group V Phospholipase A2

Masaya Koganesawa et al.

Summary: Macrophages activated by IL-4 (M2) or LPS+IFN gamma (M1) have distinct lipid metabolism profiles, with Pla2g5 playing a key role in this process. Pla2g5 is involved in phospholipid metabolism and eicosanoid production in both types of activated macrophages.

Initiation of cell volume regulation and unique cell volume regulatory mechanisms in mammalian oocytes and embryos

Allison K. Tscherner et al.

Summary: The period after ovulation is crucial for the healthy development of embryos, as they are sensitive to cell volume perturbations. Early embryos possess unique mechanisms of cell volume control using glycine and betaine, which undergo major changes post-ovulation. These mechanisms are critical for the normal development of embryos.

PD-L1 as a biomarker of response to immune-checkpoint inhibitors

Deborah Blythe Doroshow et al.

Summary: PD-L1 expression is currently the best predictor of responsiveness to immune-checkpoint inhibitors, despite challenges in clinical use such as variability in different assays and cut-off points, as well as the lack of prospective comparisons with clinical outcomes. Nevertheless, several immunohistochemical assays have been approved for clinical use, with implications for pathology services and potential impacts on clinical outcomes. Comparison of FDA-approved PD-L1 assays, understanding of the varying implications of PD-L1 expression across different tumour types, and exploration of novel approaches to optimize its clinical utility are important topics for further research and practice.

Early Life Nutrition and Mental Health: The Role of DNA Methylation

Rola A. Bekdash

Summary: Research shows that early-life diet quality is closely linked to long-term mental health, with environmental factors such as maternal diet during pregnancy and offspring diet causing changes in one-carbon metabolism associated micronutrients that impact brain function and mental health. Individualized dietary recommendations are needed to better understand the effects of these nutrients at different stages of development for improved mental health outcomes.

Macrophage regulation & function in helminth infection

Antonie Lechner et al.

Summary: Macrophages play essential roles in host defense, inflammation, immune regulation, and repair during helminth infection. They produce a wide range of effector molecules that govern antihelminth immunity and tissue repair. Macrophages also have immune regulatory potential that can be exploited by helminth parasites to evade host immunity.

SREBP1-induced fatty acid synthesis depletes macrophages antioxidant defences to promote their alternative activation

Guillaume Bidault et al.

Summary: Macrophages have a spectrum of activation states and play various roles in physiological processes. The study found that the anabolic transcription factor SREBP1 is essential for macrophage alternative activation by triggering the de novo lipogenesis program. Reactive oxygen species also play a critical role in signaling for macrophage alternative activation.
