Goldenhar syndrome: a cause of secondary immunodeficiency?

Abstract Goldenhar syndrome (GS) results from an aberrant development of the 1st and 2nd branchial arches. There is a wide range of clinical manifestations, the most common being microtia, hemifacial microsomia, epibulbar dermoids and verte...

Cold storage of human precision-cut lung slices in TiProtec preserves cellular composition and transcriptional responses and enables on-demand mechanistic studies

Abstract Background Human precision-cut lung slices (hPCLS) are a unique platform for functional, mechanistic, and drug discovery studies in the field of respiratory research. However, tissue availability, generation, and cultivation time r...

The LEGACy study: a European and Latin American consortium to identify risk factors and molecular phenotypes in gastric cancer to improve prevention strategies and personalized clinical decision making globally

Abstract Background Gastric Cancer (GC) is the fourth most deadly cancer worldwide. Enhanced understanding of its key epidemiological and molecular drivers is urgently needed to lower the incidence and improve outcomes. Furthermore, tumor b...

Hydrogen gas (H2) delivered by intraperitoneal injection alleviated methionine- and choline-deficient diet-induced metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease in mice via inhibiting GSDMD- and GSDME-mediated pyroptosis

BackgroundHydrogen gas (H2), which is the lightest and diffusible gas molecule, has strong abilities to alleviate excessive oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis. Inhalation of H2 is beneficial for preventing the damage of the lung,...

MmpL Proteins in Physiology and Pathogenesis of M. tuberculosis

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) remains an important human pathogen. The Mtb cell envelope is a critical bacterial structure that contributes to virulence and pathogenicity. Mycobacterial membrane protein large (MmpL) proteins export bulky...

Global variations in funding and use of hemodialysis accesses: an international report using the ISN Global Kidney Health Atlas

Abstract Background There is a lack of contemporary data describing global variations in vascular access for hemodialysis (HD). We used the third iteration of the International Society of Nephrology Global Kidney Health Atlas (ISN-GKHA) to ...

S100A8/A9 increases the mobilization of pro-inflammatory Ly6Chigh monocytes to the synovium during experimental osteoarthritis

Abstract Background Monocytes are dominant cells present within the inflamed synovium during osteoarthritis (OA). In mice, two functionally distinct monocyte subsets are described: pro-inflammatory Ly6Chigh and patrolling Ly6Clow monocytes....

Worldwide productivity and research trend of publications concerning extracellular vesicles role in fibrosis: A bibliometric study from 2013 to 2022

Background: Fibrosis is a heavy burden on the global healthcare system. Recently, an increasing number of studies have demonstrated that Extracellular vesicles play an important role in intercellular communication under both physiological a...

Current Protocols in Immunology

Current Protocols in Immunology is a three-volume looseleaf manual that provides comprehensive coverage of immunological methods from classic to the most cutting edge, including antibody detection and preparation, assays for functional acti...

Atlas of Immunology

In the 11 years since this atlas first published, the immunology field has experienced an exponential increase in information. Besides the unprecedented advances in knowledge of cell receptors and signal transduction pathways, an avalanche ...

The central inflammatory regulator IκBζ: induction, regulation and physiological functions

IκBζ (encoded by NFKBIZ) is the most recently identified IkappaB family protein. As an atypical member of the IkappaB protein family, NFKBIZ has been the focus of recent studies because of its role in inflammation. Specifically, it is a key...

Case Report: A severe case of immunosuppressant-refractory immune checkpoint inhibitor-mediated colitis rescued by tofacitinib

Immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy for cancer treatment can give rise to a variety of adverse events. Here we report a male patient with metastatic melanoma who experienced life-threatening colitis and duodenitis following treatment with i...

Immunology for physicists

The immune system is a complex system of cells and molecules that can provide us with a basic defense against pathogenic organisms. Like the nervous system, the immune system performs pattern recognition tasks, learns, and retains a memory ...

Reproductive Immunology

As eloquently stated by Dr Saul R. Gusberg in the foreword toReproductive Immunology, "this volume represents a milestone, for it will establish the identity of reproductive immunology as a significant area of basic immunology and as a sign...

ABSTRACT Background Treatments aimed at improving physical function and body composition, including reducing fat mass (FM) and increasing muscle mass, may benefit individuals with advanced knee osteoarthritis (OA) and obesity. We investigat...

Uncertainties in the effects of organic aerosol coatings on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon concentrations and their estimated health effects

We used the CAM5 model to examine how different particle-bound polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) degradation approaches affect the spatial distribution of benzo(a)pyrene (BaP). Three approaches were evaluated: NOA (no effect of OA coati...
