Dendritic cells (DCs) secrete vast quantities of exosomes termed as dexosomes.
Dexosomes are symmetric nanoscale heat-stable vesicles that consist of a lipid bilayer …

Integrins are cell adhesion molecules that mediate cell-cell, cell–extracellular matrix, and
cell-pathogen interactions. They play critical roles for the immune system in leukocyte …

Biomaterial implantation is followed by an inflammatory cascade dominated by
macrophages, which determine implant acceptance or rejection through pro-and anti …

Circulating tumor cell (CTC) clusters mediate metastasis at a higher efficiency and are
associated with lower overall survival in breast cancer compared to single cells. Combining …

Hyaluronan (HA), a major extracellular matrix macromolecule, has a repeated disaccharide
structure that is completely conserved throughout a large span of evolution, indicating a …

Staphylococcus aureus has been an important human pathogen throughout history and is
currently a leading cause of bacterial infections worldwide. S. aureus has the unique ability …

Cancer immunotherapies, including adoptive T cell transfer and immune checkpoint
blockades, have recently shown considerable success in cancer treatment. Nevertheless …

Rolling of leukocytes on vascular endotheliai cells, an early event in inflammation, can be
reproduced in vitro on artificial lipid bilayers containing purified CD62, a seiectln also named …

The pathogen Staphylococcus aureus is well adapted to its human host. Neutrophil-
mediated killing is a crucial defense system against S. aureus; however, the pathogen has …

The process of engulfing a foreign particle–phagocytosis–is of fundamental importance for a
wide diversity of organisms. From simple unicellular organisms that use phagocytosis to …
