SARS-CoV-2 replication targets nasal ciliated cells early in COVID-19 infection The establishment of nasal mucosal immunity against SARS-CoV-2 through a nasal vaccine could be the most efficient way to combat COVID-19 infectionUnderstanding how viral infection occurs can provide important clues for researchers to develop strategies to prevent viral transmission and develop effective therapeutic agents and vaccines. SARS-CoV-2, the cau... RegDate 2021-07-02 Hit 1033 -

Newly identified gut cells nurture lymph capillaries A team of scientists led by Gou Young Koh at the IBS Center for Vascular Research have identified new subsets of gut connective cells, which are crucial for lymphatic growth. Their new findings have been reported in the journal Nature Communications. The walls of the small intestine are covered with fingerlike projections, called villi. Lining these vil...

Researchers unveil how stromal cells in the lymph node regulate immune response Pathogens such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), and recently the new coronavirus in Wuhan, China has been a global threat. Lymph nodes (LNs) fight with pathogens through providing a shelter for immune cells to grow and launch an attack in presence of pathogens. The structural and functional framework of ...

Newly identified meningeal lymphatic vessels answers the key questions about brain clearance Excess fluids and waste products are removed from tissues via lymphatic vessels, although the brain was thought to lack a classical lymphatic drainage system until recently. In recent years, meningeal lymphatic vessels that envelop the brain were rediscovered and found to regulate brain fluid balance by d... RegDate 2019-07-25 Hit 3088 -
Tumor metastasis to lymph node requires metabolic reprogramming to use fatty acid as a fuel Researchers at IBS Center for Vascular Research discovered the mechanism how metastatic tumor cells grow in lymph nodes. The study revealed that tumor cells undergo a metabolic reprogramming toward fatty acid oxidation (FAO). Transcriptional co-acitvator YAP, potentially activated by accumulated bile acids, was selectively activated in LN metastatic ... RegDate 2019-02-08 Hit 2189 -
