By Yvonne Bordon Verified| Nature Verified Neutrophils are classically thought of as early immune responders that fight infections through phagocytosis and by producing toxic factors. Now, Vicanolo et al. show that neutrophils can produce extracellular matrix and fortify skin barrier functions, both in the steady state and in response to skin damage. When neutrophils were extracted from tissues and stained for protein expression of the type III collagen α1 chain (COL3A1), COL3A1+ cells were found to be more abundant in barrier tissues.
By Yvonne Bordon Verified| Nature Verified A study in Nature has identified a pathway through which cyclooxygenase 1 (COX1) inhibitors, such as aspirin, can prevent cancer metastasis. Yang et al. show that COX1 inhibition limits platelet production of thromboxane A2 (TXA2), a blood clotting factor that suppresses T cell effector functions. Drugs like aspirin can block this platelet-mediated pathway of suppression, enhancing the anti-metastatic activity of T cells.
