Tissue-resident neutrophils serve homeostatic and immunological functions in embryos https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.06.12.659311v1
Happy to finally share what my colleagues Laura, Emmi, and I have been working on for the last years in @rantakarigroup.bsky.social
We show that neutrophils in the mouse embryo infiltrate non-immune tissues and serve homeostatic roles during tissue development

Finnish researchers show in a new study that pituitary macrophages help regulate hormonal balance. It is possible that in the future, macrophage cells could be used to treat endocrine disorders that can lead, for example, to infertility.
