Objective: To evaluate neutrophil activation after exposure to standard HBC-201 (suspended in lactate Ringer's solution) versus HBOC-201 suspended in hypertonic 7.5% saline solution.
Methods: We use plasma and tissue obtained from pigs subjected to controlled hemorrhagic shock and an ex vivo model of stimulated human whole blood. The pigs were resuscitated with the following (n = 8 per group) standard HBOC-201, or hypertonic HBOC-201. We used HTS 7.5%, Ringer's lactate as control resuscitation. Human blood was stimulated with same fluids. We measured the following neutrophil markers; IL-8, H2O2 in pig plasma, MPO in pig tissue, and H2O2, IL-8, and CD11b/CD18 in human whole blood.
Results: H2O2 and IL-8 as well as tissue MPO were significantly decreased in pigs resuscitated with HT-HBOC-201 and HT 7.5%. Ex vivo experiments blood diluted with HTS and HT-HBOC-201 revealed lower expression of CD11b/CD18, H2O2, and IL-8. Blood diluted with HBOC-201 had a higher CD11b/CD18 expression than blood diluted with LR solution.
Conclusion: Our in vivo and ex vivo experiments indicate that HBOC-201 suspended in hypertonic 7.5% saline solution is associated with significantly less neutrophil activation when compared to standard HBOC-201 suspended in lactate Ringer's solution.

Autoimmune uveitis (AU) is a sight-threatening ocular autoimmune disorder that often manifests as retinal vasculitis. Increased neutrophil infiltration around retinal vessels has been reported during the progression of AU, while how they function is not fully recognized. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), produced by activated neutrophils, have been suggested to be detrimental in autoimmune diseases.

Post-stroke early activation of neutrophils contributes to intensive neuroinflammation and worsens disease outcomes. Other pre-existing patient conditions can modify the extent of their activation during disease, especially hypercholesterolemia. However, whether and how increased circulating cholesterol amounts can change neutrophil activation responses very early after stroke has not been studied.

Black phosphorus (BP) has demonstrated potential as a drug carrier and photothermal agent in cancer therapy; however, its intrinsic functions in cancer treatment remain underexplored. This study investigates the immunomodulatory effects of polyethylene glycol-functionalized BP (BP-PEG) nanosheets in breast cancer models. Using immunocompetent mouse models-including 4T1 orthotopic BALB/c mice and MMTV-PyMT transgenic mice, it is found that BP-PEG significantly inhibits tumor growth and metastasis without directly inducing cytotoxicity in tumor cells.
