In this issue of Immunity,Oh et al. (2017) provide insight into the molecular effects of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) activation at a clinically relevant time point, after an inflammatory stimulus. They report that GR activation causes a global reduction in NF-κB binding, as well as time-dependent transcriptional effects.

Cytokine storm is a common complication of COVID-19 pneumonia and has been proven to contribute to high mortality rates. However, current treatment approaches exhibit limited potential to balance immune response and overproduction of inflammatory cytokines, leading to poor therapeutic outcomes. Herein, a smart bioengineered neutrophil, Extinguisher, composed of live neutrophils encapsulating the liposome formulation of NF-κB suppressor MLN4924 and STING inhibitor H-151 (Lip@MH), is developed for alleviating the hyperinflammatory cytokine storm.

Inflammation is a biological process that dynamically alters the surrounding microenvironment, including participating immune cells. As a well-protected organ surrounded by specialized barriers and with immune privilege properties, the central nervous system (CNS) tightly regulates immune responses. Yet in neuroinflammatory conditions, pathogenic immunity can disrupt CNS structure and function.

Lymphangiogenesis is a recognized hallmark of inflammatory processes in tissues and organs as diverse as the skin, heart, bowel, and airways. In clinical and animal models wherein the signaling processes of lymphangiogenesis are manipulated, most studies demonstrate that an expanded lymphatic vasculature is necessary for the resolution of inflammation. The fundamental roles that lymphatics play in fluid clearance and immune cell trafficking from the periphery make these results seemingly obvious as a mechanism of alleviating locally inflamed environments: the lymphatics are simply providing a drain.
