The STePS project explores how macrophages recognize and respond to pathogens through a complex signaling process at the phagocytic synapse. It aims to integrate knowledge of receptor interactions to improve understanding of immune responses and potential therapeutic strategies.
A key feature of the immune response is its specificity and macrophages must be able to discriminate precisely between an infectious stimulus and a non-infectious one and tune their response in accordance with the molecular context in which the target particle is recognized.
In recent years, scientists have proposed the concept of the phagocytic synapse, to stress the fact that a particle does not engage only one receptor on the cell surface; instead, an array of receptors interacts with a speci…
