Anna Mularski obtained her Ph.D. from the School of Chemistry at the University of Melbourne in 2016. Her research focused on studying the interaction of antimicrobial peptides with live bacterial cells using atomic force microscopy. Her post-doctoral work at Institut Cochin, Paris, involved using traction force microscopy to study phagocytosing macrophages. Anna’s current post-doctoral research at the University of Southern Denmark, Odense, focuses on atomic force microscopy studies of annexin-membrane interactions.



Florence Niedergang studied immunology and cell biology. She obtained her Ph.D. in 1997, studying T cell activation at Institut Pasteur. As a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Lausanne, she investigated the role of gut phagocytes in bacterial survival. She joined Institut Cochin (Inserm/ CNRS/ Université Paris Descartes) as a group leader in 2005. She is now director of the ‘Infection, Immunity and Inflammation’ department and scientific director of the IMAG’IC photonic imaging facility of Institut Cochin. Her present work focuses on the mechanisms of internalization and activation of phagocytic cells in normal and pathological conditions such as viral infections leading to bacterial super-infections.

Abstract

In higher organisms, the professional phagocytes of the immune system (dendritic cells, neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages) are responsible for pathogen clearance, the development of immune responses via cytokine secretion and presentation of antigens derived from internalized material, and the normal turnover and remodelling of tissues and disposal of dead cells. These functions rely on the ability of phagocytes to migrate and adhere to sites of infection, dynamically probe their environments to make contact with phagocytic targets, and perform phagocytosis, a mechanism of internalization of large particles, microorganisms, and cellular debris for intracellular degradation. The cell-generated forces that are necessary for the professional phagocytes to act in their roles as ‘first responders’ of the immune system have been the subject of mechanical studies in recent years. Methods of force measurement such as atomic force microscopy, traction force microscopy, micropipette aspiration, magnetic and optical tweezers, and exciting new variants of these have accompanied classical biological methods to perform mechanical investigations of these highly dynamic immune cells.
