The immune system is not a monolith but a dynamic equilibrium between pro-inflammatory effector responses (Th1, Th2, Th17) and anti-inflammatory regulatory responses (Treg, IL-10, TGF-beta). Metals and the microbiome are two of the most potent environmental modulators o…

Interleukin-6 is a pleiotropic cytokine that sits at the crossroads of innate immunity, adaptive immunity, and metabolism. It is one of the most frequently elevated inflammatory mediators across conditions in this wiki — appearing in disease signatures spanning IBD, aut…
Inflammation is a broad concept, but in the metallomics context it has a specific character: heavy metals and pathogens activate overlapping inflammatory pathways, creating convergent pathology where distinguishing the metal contribution from the microbial contribution …
The strategy by which mammalian hosts withhold essential metals from invading pathogens to limit their growth. Well-established for iron and zinc; underexplored but potentially powerful for nickel.
