Tissue macrophages have a split personality Resident tissue (RTMs) reside in various tissue-specific niches during development. They evince microenvironment-directed phenotypes that support host defense and homeostasis. Chakarov et al. used single-cell RNA sequencing fate-mapping of murine lung RTMs to interrogate RTM-subset heterogeneity, interrelationships, ontogeny (see the Perspective by Mildner Yona). In addition alveolar macrophages, they identified two different interstitial...
Alveolar macrophages (AMs) are critical for lung immune defense and homeostasis. They orchestrators of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), with their number significantly increased functions altered in COPD. However, it is unclear how AM function controlled a healthy if changes AMs without environmental assault sufficient to trigger inflammation We report here that absence isthmin 1 (ISM1) mice (Ism1-/- ) leads increase both functional heterogeneity, enduring inflammation,...
Abstract This article is part of the Dendritic Cell Guidelines series, which provides a collection state‐of‐the‐art protocols for preparation, phenotype analysis by flow cytometry, generation, fluorescence microscopy, and functional characterization mouse human dendritic cells (DC) from lymphoid organs various non‐lymphoid tissues. Recent studies have provided evidence an increasing number phenotypically distinct conventional DC (cDC) subsets that on one hand exhibit certain plasticity, but...
