Amy Goundry: Which Are The Next Major Advances in Blood and Plasma-Driven Immune Regulation?
Amy Goundry, Managing Editor at Sage, shared on LinkedIn:
”The blood–immune interface is a dynamic space where cellular and plasma components regulate immune responses across infection, inflammation, and systemic disease.
At Blood and Plasma we’re particularly interested in rigorous mechanistic research in this area, and we’ve just opened a Special Collection on it.
Which area of immune regulation by blood or plasma components will drive the next major advances?
- Cellular crosstalk – How interactions among erythrocytes, platelets, leukocytes, and endothelium regulate immune activation and resolution
- Plasma-mediated immune modulation – How complement, antibodies, cytokines, metabolites, and extracellular vesicles shape immune cell phenotype and function
- Early biomarkers of dysregulation – Identifying markers that detect immune imbalance early and improve risk stratification and therapeutic targeting
- Inflammation–coagulation links – How immune activation and coagulation pathways intersect in thrombosis, sepsis, and systemic inflammatory disease
