Mgl2+ cDC2s coordinate fungal allergic airway type 2, but not type 17, inflammation in mice by Peter C. Cook, Sheila L. Brown, Emma L. Houlder, Julio Furlong-Silva, Daniel P. Conn, Stefano A. P. Colombo, Syed Baker, Freya R. Svedberg, Gareth Howell, Margherita Bertuzzi, Louis Boon, Joanne E. Konkel, Christopher R. Thornton, Judith E. Allen, Andrew S. MacDonald

“…Here we find that CD11c+ DCs and CD4+ T cells are essential for development of both type 2 and type 17 airway inflammation in mice repeatedly exposed to inhaled spores. Single cell RNA-sequencing with further multi-parameter cytometry shows that allergic inflammation dramatically alters the proportion of numerous DC clusters in the lung, but that only two of these (Mgl2+ cDC2s and CCR7+ DCs) migrate to the dLNs. …”

The NLRP3 Inflammasome as a Novel Player of the Intercellular Crosstalk in Metabolic Disorders by Elisa Benetti, Fausto Chiazza, Nimesh S. A. Patel, Massimo Collino

“…One of the most recently identified signaling pathways, whose activation seems to affect many metabolic disorders, is the “inflammasome,” a multiprotein complex composed of NLRP3 (nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat protein 3), ASC (apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD), and procaspase-1. …”
