In a recent study in Nature Medicine, Rauber et al. (2017) identify interleukin-9 (IL-9) derived from group 2 innate lymphoid cells as crucial regulators inducing resolution of chronic inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis. Their findings provide insight into the varied functions of IL-9 and open the door to novel therapeutic interventions.

SP-D Serum Levels Reveal Distinct Epithelial Damage in Direct Human ARDS

Konrad Peukert, Benjamin Seeliger, Mario Fox, Caroline Feuerborn, Andrea Sauer, Patrick Schuss, Matthias Schneider, Sascha David, Tobias Welte, Christian Putensen, Christoph Wilhelm, Folkert Steinhagen, Christian Bode

Summary: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a heterogeneous condition with various underlying diseases, where direct ARDS caused by different pathogens showed distinct inflammatory responses and lung damage compared to indirect ARDS. Specific biomarkers such as SP-D, sRAGE, and Ang-2 exhibited different levels in different types of ARDS patients, potentially serving as valuable indicators for personalized treatment based on disease and pathogen variations.

Summary: The study found that tetracycline may be effective in treating direct ARDS patients by reducing lung injury and inflammation through inhibiting the production of IL-1β and IL-18, thereby improving survival rates.

Enemy or ally? Fasting as an essential regulator of immune responses

Christoph Wilhelm, Jayagopi Surendar, Fotios Karagiannis

Summary: Nutrition is crucial for maintaining bodily functions, with emerging evidence showing the immunomodulatory effects of diet as a central aspect of human health. Dietary restriction may play a regulatory role by influencing immune cell functions, and it can have varying effects depending on the environment.

The neuropeptide VIP potentiates intestinal innate type 2 and type 3 immunity in response to feeding

Summary: The nervous system and the immune system have close interactions in perceiving and responding to external disturbances. This study demonstrates that Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP), produced by the nervous system during feeding, enhances the production of effector cytokines by intestinal innate lymphoid cells, thereby increasing innate immunity against potential threats associated with food intake.

Impaired ketogenesis ties metabolism to T cell dysfunction in COVID-19

Netea, Karsten Hiller, Katarzyna Placek, Christian Bode, Christoph Wilhelm

Summary: This study found that impaired production of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) is associated with severe COVID-19 respiratory distress syndrome. BHB promotes the survival and interferon-gamma production of CD4(+) T cells. BHB acts as an alternative carbon source, fueling oxidative phosphorylation and maintaining the redox balance.

Food for thought - ILC metabolism in the context of helminth infections

Marcel Michla, Christoph Wilhelm

Summary: This article reviews the complex interplay between helminth infections and ILC2 biology, and discusses the host's metabolic adaptation to helminth infections and the metabolic pathways fueling ILC2 responses. Understanding the metabolic restraints imposed by helminth infections may offer new therapeutic avenues in the future.

Impact of digital health interventions for adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus on health literacy: a systematic review

Summary: Evidence shows that living with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in adolescence is challenging. However, little is known about the association between digital health interventions and health literacy for this population. This systematic review provides an overview of the impact of digital health interventions on health literacy for adolescents with T1DM and suggests further research is needed.

Retinoic acid drives intestine-specific adaptation of effector ILC2s originating from distant sites

Summary: Effector ILC2s retain phenotypic flexibility and can adapt to tissue-specific microenvironments, even after hematogenous trafficking. Retinoic acid signaling plays a crucial role in intestinal ILC2 adaptation and has functional implications in acute helminth infections. This study reveals the mechanisms of ILC2 adaptation and highlights the importance of tissue imprinting for ILC2 function.

Summary: The study found that tetracycline can reduce silica-induced lung injury and fibrosis associated with chronic silicosis by inhibiting caspase-1 activation and the production of IL-1 beta. Tetracycline may be an effective treatment for patients with silicosis and other diseases involving silicotic inflammation.
