Sympathetic signaling directs macrophage efferocytosis in thermogenic adipose tissue

Simon Meyer, Jennifer Witt, Imke Liebold…·Anna Worthmann

The paper identifies norepinephrine as a trigger of macrophage efferocytosis in brown adipose tissue, linking sympathetic signaling to metabolic adaptation through β2-adrenergic and Axl/Mertk pathways.

Entamoeba histolytica extracellular vesicles drive pro-inflammatory monocyte signaling

Barbara Honecker, Valentin A. Bärreiter, Katharina Höhn…·Iris Bruchhaus

This study shows that extracellular vesicles from Entamoeba histolytica drive pro-inflammatory monocyte signaling, contributing to male-biased immunopathology in amebic liver abscesses.
