COMMD10 is critical for Kupffer cell survival and controls Ly6C monocyte differentiation and inflammation in the injured liver.

Liver-resident macrophages Kupffer cells (KCs) and infiltrating Ly6C monocytes both contribute to liver tissue regeneration in various pathologies but also to disease progression upon disruption of orderly consecutive regeneration cascades. Little is known about molecular pathways that regulate their differentiation, maintenance, or inflammatory behavior during injury. Here, we show that copper metabolism MURR1 domain (COMMD)10-deficient KCs adopt liver-specific identity.

[Vocal cord dysfunction simulating severe corticoid-dependent asthma].

We report a case of severe asthma initially considered as cortico-resistant. Clinical analysis of dyspneic attacks demonstrated they were atypical, sometimes associated with dysphonia and syncopes. Severity of clinical presentation was discordant with lung function tests.
