How immune cells deliver their deadly cargo

—Precision is crucial for immune cells: natural killer (NK) cells and T cells eliminate infected or transformed cells by releasing targeted, highly toxic particles. A new study from the CeMM (Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences), the St. Anna Children’s Cancer Research Institute, the Medical University of Vienna, the Medical University of Graz, the University Hospital Bonn (UKB) and the University of Bonn offers deeper insight into how these so-called cytotoxic granules are released.

Obesity causes lungs to age prematurely

—What effects does severe obesity have on the lungs? A research team led by Prof. Dr. Veronika Lukacs-Kornek from the ‘ImmunoSensation2’ Cluster of Excellence at the University of Bonn and the Institute for Molecular Medicine and Experimental Immunology (IMMEI) at the University Hospital Bonn (UKB) investigated this question. The results suggest that obesity causes the lungs to age faster. The findings have been published in the journal ‘Cell Reports’.
