TL;DR

Findings identify PCBP1 as a new regulator of early definitive hematopoiesis while leaving its underlying molecular mechanism unresolved.

Abstract

Ji and colleagues show that endothelial deletion of PCBP1, a multifunctional nucleic-acid-binding protein, reduces intra-arterial hematopoietic cluster formation and impairs subsequent hematopoietic development. These findings identify PCBP1 as a new regulator of early definitive hematopoiesis while leaving its underlying molecular mechanism unresolved.

Milking the niche: Microbial control of neonatal hematopoiesis.

In this issue of Cell, Howard et al. reveal how the milk glycoprotein osteopontin shapes the neonatal microbiome to regulate hematopoiesis, promoting dendritic cell development and protection from severe respiratory infection. These findings uncover a maternal milk-microbiota pathway linking early-life nutrition to imm...

A genetically regulated SKAP2 switch modulates human T lymphocyte adhesion and migration

Spinella et al. linked a Crohn’s disease risk allele regulating SKAP2 expression to T lymphocyte function. SKAP2 enhances cell adhesion while suppressing migration. Sustained TCR signaling triggers its proteolytic cleavage to enable migration. Overall, genetic alteration of SKAP2 levels drives T cell dysfunction and pr...

Malaria durably disrupts macrophage-to-macrophage crosstalk in the spleen.

Blood-stage malaria transiently depletes and remodels splenic macrophages, but how distinct subsets recover remains unclear. A recent report by Mauel et al. shows that a yolk sac-derived CD163high red pulp macrophage subset is selectively and durably lost after malaria, disrupting a growth differentiation factor 15-dep...
