Rescue of in vitro models of CSF1R-related adult-onset leukodystrophy by iluzanebart: mechanisms and therapeutic implications of TREM2 agonism by Kelley C. Larson, Frederick W. Gergits, Abigail J. Renoux, Elizabeth J. Weisman, Borislav Dejanovic, Liyue Huang, Bhaumik Pandya, Donald G. McLaren, Berkley A. Lynch, Richard Fisher, Evan Thackaberry, David Gray, Francois Gaudreault, Christian Mirescu

“…Differentially expressed genes identified in the hippocampus of mice treated with iluzanebart were exemplary of TREM2 activation and were related to cell proliferation, regulation of inflammatory processes, and innate immune response pathways. Proliferation of microglia, changes in protein levels of specific chemokines identified by gene expression analysis, and increased CSF1R levels were also confirmed in vivo. …”

Interactive effects of triploidy induction and culture densities on growth performance and stress, immune, and metabolic responses in juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) by Roghayeh Mahmoudi, Mahdi Naderi, Hakimeh Dopeikar, Seyed Ali Khorasaninasab, Seyed Hadi Seyedalhosseini

“…Overall, high density (50 kg/m3) negatively influenced fish performance, but moderate culture densities (20, 30, and 40 kg/m3) do not influence growth and stress, innate immune, and metabolic responses of fish. Thus, triploid rainbow trout juveniles can act well and be recommended to the aquaculture industry at a culture density of 40 kg/m3.…”

Generation of novel oncolytic vaccinia virus with improved intravenous efficacy through protection against complement-mediated lysis and evasion of neutralization by vaccinia virus... by Dong-Sup Lee, Mi-Ju Park, Namhee Lee, Yun-Hui Jeon, Jiyoon Yoo, Suk-kyung Shin, Songyi Lee, Byung-Jin Jung, Yun-Kyoung Hong, Keunhee Oh

“…Although systemic delivery of the oncolytic virus would maximize viral immunotherapy’s potential, this remains a hurdle due to the rapid removal of the administered virus by the complement and innate immune system. Infected cells produce some vaccinia viruses as extracellular enveloped virions, which evade complement attack and achieve longer survival by expressing host complement regulatory proteins (CRPs) on the host-derived envelope. …”
