TMEM16F in Kupffer Cells Protects Against Listeria
2026-09-04
The reference study identifies Kupffer cell TMEM16F as a key determinant of liver protection during Listeria monocytogenes infection, shifting the focus from lymphocytes to tissue-resident macrophages. Its cell-specific genetic and membrane-repair evidence links lipid scrambling with reduced Kupffer cell death, restrained inflammation, and preserved hepatic metabolism.

Neuritin, ER Stress, and Early Brain Injury After SAH
2026-09-03
A 2024 Brain Research study maps three endoplasmic reticulum stress-linked inflammatory routes that connect subarachnoid hemorrhage with neuroinflammation and neuronal apoptosis. Its central experimental finding is that Neuritin overexpression suppresses these pathways and reduces early brain injury, providing a mechanistic framework for pathway-focused investigation rather than a clinical treatment claim.
