Immunological memory is classically attributed to adaptive immune responses, but recent studies have shown that challenged innate immune cells can display long-term functional changes that increase nonspecific responsiveness to subsequent infections. This phenomenon, coined trained immunity or innate immune memory, is based on the epigenetic reprogramming and the rewiring of intracellular metabolic pathways. Here, we review the different metabolic pathways that are modulated in trained immunity. Glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, amino acid, and lipid metabolism are interplaying pathways that are crucial for the establishment of innate immune memory. Unraveling this metabolic wiring allows for a better understanding of innate immune contribution to health and disease. These insights may open avenues for the development of future therapies that aim to harness or dampen the power of the innate immune response.

Background: Monocytes are evolutionarily preserved innate immune cells that play essential roles in immune response regulation. Three activated monocyte subsets-classical (CD14++CD16-), intermediate (CD14++CD16+), and nonclassical (CD14+CD16++)-are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) progression. This study aims to determine the association of monocyte subsets with SLE disease activity.

Introduction: Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is an opportunistic pathogen that can induce chorioamnionitis (CA), increasing the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) in the offspring. The placenta facilitates maternal-fetal communication through the release of extracellular vesicles (EVs), which may carry inflammatory molecules such as interleukin (IL)-1. Although the role of EVs in immune modulation is well established, their specific characterization in the context of GBS-induced CA has not yet been investigated.

Acute lung injury (ALI) is a clinically common disease with high mortality, characterized by tissue damage caused by excessive activation of inflammation. TRIM7 is an E3 ligase that plays an important role in regulating viral infection, tumor progression and innate immune response. But its function in ALI is unclear.

Microbiota encompasses a diverse array of microorganisms inhabiting specific ecological niches. Gut microbiota significantly influences physiological processes, including gastrointestinal motor function, neuroendocrine signalling, and immune regulation. They play a crucial role in modulating the central nervous system and bolstering body defence mechanisms by influencing the proliferation and differentiation of innate and adaptive immune cells.
