Listeria monocytogenes use multiple mechanisms to disseminate from the intestinal lamina propria to the mesenteric lymph nodes by Joshua S. Nowacki, Grant S. Jones, Sarah E. F. D'Orazio

“…However, increasing the number of circulating dendritic cells by treating mice with rFlt3L resulted in a significant increase in L. monocytogenes in the lymph nodes that drain the small intestine and the spleen. Whole-mount fluorescent microscopy of lymphatic vessels following ligated loop infection revealed both free-floating L. monocytogenes and cell-associated bacteria within lymphatic vessels. …”

Rap1 Guanosine Triphosphate Hydrolase (GTPase) Regulates Shear Stress-Mediated Adhesion of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells by Melanie Giesen, Erika Fleck, Jürgen Scheele, Tanja Nicole Hartmann, Reinhard Henschler

“…In a competitive murine short-term homing model with i.v. co-injection of Rap1A+B siRNA-treated and control MSCs that were labeled with PKH 26 and PKH 67 fluorescent dyes, the Rap1A+B siRNA-treated MSCs were detected at increased frequencies in blood, liver, and spleen compared to control MSCs. Thus, Rap1 GTPase modulates the adhesion and migration of MSCs in vitro and may increase the bio-availability of i.v.…”

The question of strains in AA amyloidosis by Gunilla T. Westermark, Ebba Nyström, Sofie Nyström, K. Peter R. Nilsson, Per Hammarström, Per Westermark

“…All but two mice showed amyloid deposits in the spleen induced by the human seeds. Amyloid binding ligand analysis was applied on the splenic amyloid deposits and revealed no clear significant difference between mice seeded with AA fibrils from different donors being vascular or common, but the AA deposits of mice given AL fibrils showed significantly different amyloid fluorescent signals compared to all groups of mice receiving AA fibrils. …”

hUC-MSCs Attenuate Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease through Chi3l1 Repression of Th17 Differentiation by Weijiang Liu, Fulin Yuan, Haitao Bai, Yuanlin Liu, Xue Li, Yang Wang, Yi Zhang

“…Furthermore, Chi3l1 knockdown hUC-MSCs exhibited impaired therapeutic efficacy in aGvHD mice with an increased inflammatory response by promoting Th17 cell differentiation, including an increase in IL-17A in the spleen, intestine, and serum. Collectively, these results reveal a new immunosuppressive molecule, Chi3l1, in hUC-MSCs in the treatment of aGvHD that regulates Th17 differentiation and inhibits STAT3 activation. …”

Protection Conferred by Gallid Alphaherpesvirus 2 Vaccines Against Immunosuppression Induced by Very Virulent Plus (vv+) Marek’s Disease Virus Strains in Commercial Meat Type Chick... by Nagwa Khaled, Carissa Gaghan, Abdelhamid M. Fares, Christa Goodell, William Stanley, Raveendra R. Kulkarni, Isabel M. Gimeno

“…In this study, we evaluated how three Gallid alphaherpesvirus 2 (GaHV-2) vaccines (CVI-988, rMd5-BAC∆Meq, and CVI-LTR) protected against two negative outcomes of vv+MDV infection: (1) reduced viability and frequency of immune cells in the spleen and (2) decreased efficacy of the CEO (chicken embryo origin) vaccine against infectious laryngotracheitis challenge. …”

A multi-tissue longitudinal proteomics study to evaluate the suitability of post-mortem samples for pathophysiological research by Christian M. Beusch, Ken Braesch-Andersen, Ulrika Felldin, Pierre Sabatier, Anna Widgren, Jonas Bergquist, Karl-Henrik Grinnemo, Sergey Rodin

“…Here, we have revisited published data and conducted a clinically relevant time-course experiment in mice, revealing organ-specific proteome regulation after death, with only a fraction of these changes linked to protein autolysis. The liver and spleen exhibit significant proteomic alterations within hours post-mortem, whereas the heart displays only modest changes. …”

The role of size in PEGylated liposomal doxorubicin biodistribution and anti‐tumour activity by Saba Dadpour, Amin Mehrabian, Mahdieh Arabsalmani, Elaheh Mirhadi, Anis Askarizadeh, Mohammad Mashreghi, Mahmoud Reza Jaafari

“…In contrast, larger nanoparticles (200 and 400 nm formulations) had more accumulation in the liver and spleen. This study revealed that 90 nm Caelyx® biodistribution profile led to the stronger anti‐tumour activity of the drug and hence significant survival extension, and showed the importance of vesicle size in the targeting of nanoparticles to the tumour microenvironment for the treatment of cancer.…”
