RNA-seq and mass cytometry analyses reveal a myeloid cell reprogramming with limited effect on T cells in the tumor microenvironment. CSF1 plasma levels are significantly elevated in human patients and CSF1R is highly expressed on CD163 + macrophages within the human tumor microenvironment. Our findings suggests that anti-CSF1/CSF1R antibody treatment may be an effective normalization cancer immunotherapy for malignant meningiomas.

Amiloride is a competitive blocker of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) in the renal collecting duct. It is a less potent diuretic than thiazides or loop diuretics, but is often used in association for its potassium-sparing profile. Whether amiloride has hypocalciuric effect similar to thiazides remains unclear. Animal studies and experiments on cell lines suggested that amiloride increases calcium reabsorption in the distal nephron, but human studies are scarce. We performed a post hoc analysis of a study with 48 healthy males (age, 23.2 ± 3.9 years) who were assigned to a high sodium (Na)/low potassium (K) diet for 7 days before receiving 20 mg of amiloride p.o. Urinary excretions of electrolytes were measured at 3 and 6 hours afterward; we calculated the relative changes in urinary excretion rates after amiloride administration. The high Na/low K diet led to an expected suppression of plasma renin and aldosterone. Amiloride showed a mild natriuretic effect associated with a decreased kaliuresis. Urinary calcium excretion dropped substantially (by 80%) 3 hours after amiloride administration and remained low at the 6th hour. At the same time, fractional excretion of lithium decreased by a third, reflecting an increa
