Facilitating Overdose Risk Mitigation Among Patients Following a Clinician Office Closure: A Connecticut Case Study of the Opioid Rapid Response Program Open
The Opioid Rapid Response Program (ORRP) is a federal program designed to support states in mitigating risks to patients who lose access to a prescriber of opioids or other controlled substances. Displaced patients might face risks of with…

High Na+ Environments Impair Phagocyte Oxidase-Dependent Antibacterial Activity of Neutrophils Open
Infection and inflammation can augment local Na + abundance. These increases in local Na + levels boost proinflammatory and antimicrobial macrophage activity and can favor polarization of T cells towards a proinflammatory Th17 phenotype. A…

Salt Transiently Inhibits Mitochondrial Energetics in Mononuclear Phagocytes Open
Background: Dietary high salt (HS) is a leading risk factor for mortality and morbidity. Serum sodium transiently increases postprandially but can also accumulate at sites of inflammation affecting differentiation and function of innate an…

Mechanical Stress Induce PG-E2 in Murine Synovial Fibroblasts Originating from the Temporomandibular Joint Open
Genetic predisposition, traumatic events, or excessive mechanical exposure provoke arthritic changes in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). We analysed the impact of mechanical stress that might be involved in the development and progressio…

Dietary Salt Accelerates Orthodontic Tooth Movement by Increased Osteoclast Activity Open
Dietary salt uptake and inflammation promote sodium accumulation in tissues, thereby modulating cells like macrophages and fibroblasts. Previous studies showed salt effects on periodontal ligament fibroblasts and on bone metabolism by expr…

Impact of salt and the osmoprotective transcription factor NFAT‐5 on macrophages during mechanical strain Open
Myeloid cells regulate bone density in response to increased salt (NaCl) intake via the osmoprotective transcription factor, nuclear factor of activated T cells‐5 (NFAT‐5). Because orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) is a pseudoinflammatory i…

Hypertonicity counteracts MCL‐1 and renders BCL‐XL a synthetic lethal target in head and neck cancer Open
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is an aggressive and difficult‐to‐treat cancer entity. Current therapies ultimately aim to activate the mitochondria‐controlled (intrinsic) apoptosis pathway, but complex alterations in intrace…

NCX1 represents an ionic Na+ sensing mechanism in macrophages Open
Inflammation and infection can trigger local tissue Na(+)accumulation. This Na+-rich environment boosts proinflammatory activation of monocyte/macrophage-like cells (M phi s) and their antimicrobial activity. Enhanced Na+-driven M phi func…

Osteoprotective action of low-salt diet requires myeloid cell–derived NFAT5 Open
Dietary salt consumption leads to cutaneous Na+ storage and is associated with various disorders, including osteopenia. Here, we explore the impact of Na+ and the osmoprotective transcription factor nuclear factor of activated T cell 5 (NF…

HIF1A and NFAT5 coordinate Na<sup>+</sup>-boosted antibacterial defense via enhanced autophagy and autolysosomal targeting Open
Infection and inflammation are able to induce diet-independent Na+-accumulation without commensurate water retention in afflicted tissues, which favors the pro-inflammatory activation of mouse macrophages and augments their anti…

Interplay of Na+ Balance and Immunobiology of Dendritic Cells Open
Local Na+ balance emerges as an important factor of tissue microenvironment. On the one hand, immune cells impact on local Na+ levels. On the other hand, Na+ availability is able to influence immune responses. In contrast to macrophages, o…

Monitoring Protein Dynamics in Protein O-Mannosyltransferase Mutants In Vivo by Tandem Fluorescent Protein Timers Open
For proteins entering the secretory pathway, a major factor contributing to maturation and homeostasis is glycosylation. One relevant type of protein glycosylation is O-mannosylation, which is essential and evolutionarily-conserved in fung…

Hypertonicity-enforced BCL-2 addiction unleashes the cytotoxic potential of death receptors Open
Attempts to exploit the cytotoxic activity of death receptors (DR) for treating cancer have thus far been disappointing. DR activation in most malignant cells fails to trigger cell death and may even promote tumor growth by activating cell…

Hypoxia, Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1α, and Innate Antileishmanial Immune Responses Open
Low oxygen environments and accumulation of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) are features of infected and inflamed tissues. Here, we summarize our current knowledge on oxygen levels found in Leishmania-infected tissues and discuss which me…
