TL;DR: These studies constitute the initial demonstration that DAMPs released by NMCs induce fibroblast activation in vitro, as well as myocardial inflammation and fibrosis in vivo, at least in part, through TLR4-dependent signaling.
Immunotherapy of human cancer: lessons from mice.
TL;DR: It may be necessary to consider different endpoints and objectives when evaluating the efficacy of these newer approaches to immunotherapies for cancer, as well as the approval process designed for testing drugs.

Toll-Like Receptors and Cancer: MYD88 Mutation and Inflammation
TL;DR: The need for a better understanding of TLRs in cancers and the development of novel anti-cancer therapies targeting TLRs is highlighted, and how mutations can hijack the TLR signaling pathways to give rise to cancer is discussed.
Candida albicans Infection of Caenorhabditis elegans Induces Antifungal Immune Defenses
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the yeast form of C. albicans establishes an intestinal infection in Caenorhabditis elegans, whereas heat-killed yeast are avirulent and that nematodes selectively mount specific antifungal defenses at the expense of antibacterial responses.
DNA-stimulated cell death: implications for host defence, inflammatory diseases and cancer.
TL;DR: This article explains how innate sensors of DNA activate different types of programmed cell death and the current knowledge on how these processes shape immune responses to exogenous and endogenous challenges are reviewed.
