Immune cells don’t just fight infection—they manage the body’s energy too. A Trends in Biochemical Sciences spotlight on Nedbalova et al. shows they release adenosine, signaling other tissues to dial down energy use.

Macrophages promote tumor growth by phagocytosis-mediated cytokine amplification in Drosophila

Hirooka et al. show that Draper-mediated phagocytosis induces Upd3 in macrophages, amplifying tumor-derived Upds and activating JAK/STAT signaling, which promotes RasV12/scrib tumor growth in Drosophi...

Adenozin - známá molekula, na kterou se molekulární biologové z Jihočeské univerzity podívali jinou optikou. Výsledek jejich výzkumu zaujal prestižní časopis Science. Na první pohled složitý mechanismus, na druhý už nesmírně zajímavý a univerzální proces, který se děje v každém organismu.

Jihočeská univerzita v Českých Budějovicích - Nový pohled na známou molekulu: pomocí adenozinu si buňka říká o víc energie. Podle jihočeských vědců to zásadně souvisí s tím, jak pracuje naše imunita
