Absence of regulatory T cells causes phenotypic and functional switch in murine peritoneal macrophages
Jelena Skuljec and colleagues used FOXP3-deficient scurfy (Sf) mice to investigate the behavior of peritoneal macrophages in terms of the missing crosstalk with Tregs. [...]
Pulmonary Transplantation of Human iPSC-derived Macrophages Ameliorates Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis.
In this first-ever proof-of-concept study for the therapeutic potential of human iPSC-derived cells in a pulmonary disease, Christine Happle and colleagues use Chipcytometry to analyse the [...]
Monocyte/macrophage lineage commitment and distribution are affected by the lack of regulatory T cells in scurfy mice

Allergy prevention starts before conception: maternofetal transfer of tolerance protects against the development of asthma
In this project, chipcytometry was used to analyze in detail the antigen-specific immune response in offspring of mice that had been tolerized to a certain allergen. Surprisingly, it was found [...]
