Regional and cell specific bioactivity of injectable extracellular matrix biomaterials in myocardial infarction

Myocardial infarction disrupts cardiac repair mechanisms, limiting regeneration. Here, the authors show that extracellular matrix therapies activate spatial and cell-specific pro reparative programs, revealed through spatial transcriptomics and snRNA-seq.

Adaptive immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 persist in the pharyngeal lymphoid tissue of children

Manthiram and colleagues analyze the peripheral blood, tonsils and adenoids in children undergoing tonsillectomy or adenoidectomy and find evidence of continued tissue-specific immunity to SARS-CoV-2 and viral RNA persistence weeks to months after acute infection.

Pro-regenerative biomaterials recruit immunoregulatory dendritic cells after traumatic injury

Pro-regenerative biomaterials for the treatment of muscle injury induce the proliferation of a dendritic cell population associated with cross-presentation and self-tolerance, promoting a pro-regenerative immune environment to aid muscle wound healing.
