Caspase-1, Caspase-8, and Calpain Are Dispensable for IL-33 Release by Macrophages

TL;DR: It is shown that mouse peritoneal macrophages, but not splenic dendritic cells, produced IL-33 upon stimulation with LPS, and caspase-1-deficient, caspasase-8-treated, and calpain inhibitor-treated macrophage production was found even in caspases, suggesting that casp enzyme-1-, caspasing-8, andCalpain-independent IL- 33 production by macrophaging and/or mast
Journal ArticleDOI

RNA m6A modification and its function in diseases

TL;DR: The recent advances in m6A research are summarized and the functional relevance and importance of m 6A modification in in vitro cell lines, in physiological contexts, and in cancers are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficient differentiation and function of human macrophages in humanized CSF-1 mice.

TL;DR: It is reported that human CSF-1 knockin mice show augmented frequencies and functions of human myeloid cells, and human monocytes/macrophages obtained from the humanized CSFs engineered to express human cytokines show augmented functional properties including migration, phagocytosis, activation and responses to LPS.
Journal ArticleDOI

The CD40 ligand. At the center of the immune universe

TL;DR: The current picture that emerges indicates that CD40-CD40L interactions mediate many cell-mediated immune responses and T-cell-mediated effector functions that are required for proper functioning of the host defense system.
Journal Article

CD40-CD40 ligand costimulation is required for generating antiviral CD4 T cell responses but is dispensable for CD8 T cell responses.

TL;DR: The importance of CD40-CD40L interactions in generating virus-specific CD4 T cell responses and in resolving chronic viral infection is highlighted.
