Ovarian Cancer Drives TLR5-Dependent Expansion of Myeloid Progenitors Through Systemic Dissemination of Ligands

Sree H. Kolli, Mitchell Thomas McGinty, Mirna Perusina Lanfranca…·Melanie R. Rutkowski

This study shows ovarian cancer drives TLR5-dependent expansion of myeloid progenitors through systemic dissemination of ligands, leading to increased monocyte and macrophage accumulation in the tumor microenvironment.

Spatially-divergent metabolic impact of experimental toxoplasmosis: immunological and microbial correlates

Mahbobeh Lesani, Caitlyn E. Middleton, Tzu-Yu Feng…·Laura‐Isobel McCall

This study examines metabolic changes in multiple tissues during toxoplasmosis, finding that immune responses, not parasite burden, drive metabolic perturbations in chronic infection.
