TL;DR: In this article, the authors present evidence that a cytokine response by mast cells may initiate inappropriate antiviral immune responses and cause the development of cytokine storm syndrome, which is a cascade of escalated immune responses disposing the immune system to exhaustion, which might ultimately result in organ failure and fatal respiratory distress.

TL;DR: In this article, a review highlights the advances in understanding the mechanisms governing neutrophilic inflammation against viral and bacterial pathogens, in cancers, and in autoimmune diseases, and how neutrophils could influence the development of cytokine storm syndromes.

TL;DR: This study analyzed how administering the rhabdovirus vesicular stomatitis virus intravenously at 1 × 109 PFU acutely influenced neutrophil populations and implicated neutrophils as major contributors to oncolytic rhabDoviral therapies.

TL;DR: In this paper, two recombinant Newcastle disease virus (NDV) vectors expressing either the full-length SARS-CoV-2 spike protein or a version with a 19 amino acid deletion at the carboxy terminus were used.

TL;DR: In this paper, the qualitative nature of immune responses against influenza viruses, with an emphasis on trained immunity and an assessment of the characteristics of the host-pathogen that compromise the effectiveness of immunization.
