Low-dose IL-2 treatment rescues cognitive deficits by repairing the imbalance between Treg and Th17 cells at the middle Alzheimer's disease stage

Low-dose IL-2 treatment rescues cognitive deficits by repairing the imbalance between Treg and Th17 cells at the middle Alzheimer’s disease stage Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an age-related neurodegenerative disorder characterized by neuronal damage, amyloid plaque deposition, and chronic inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS). ...

Perioperative levels of IL8 and IL18, but not IL6, are associated with nucleus basalis magnocellularis atrophy three months after surgery

Association Study of Perioperative IL8 and IL18 Levels with Brain Basal Ganglia Atrophy Three Months After Surgery Background In recent years, an increasing number of studies have shown that surgical procedures may accelerate brain atrophy. Meanwhile, the relationship between systemic inflammation and neurodegenerative diseases has also received co...

Role of tpn10475 in T Lymphocyte Activation and its Effects on Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis

TPN10475 Inhibits Effector T Lymphocyte Activation and Alleviates Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis by Promoting TGF-β Signaling Introduction Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS) mediated by immune cells, with complex etiology and unclear pathogenesis. MS is characterized by ne...

Targeting the Glucocorticoid Receptor-CCR8 Axis Mediated Bone Marrow T Cell Sequestration Enhances Infiltration of Anti-Tumor T Cells in Intracranial Cancers

Research Targeting Glucocorticoid Receptor-CCR8 Axis Mediated Bone Marrow T Cell Sequestration to Enhance Anti-tumor T Cell Infiltration in Intracranial Cancer Background Brain tumors, especially glioblastomas (GBMs), show significant resistance to immune checkpoint blockade therapy, partly due to limited T cell infiltration into tumors. GBMs accou...

GPR34 Senses Demyelination to Promote Neuroinflammation and Pathologies

Background Introduction Sterile neuroinflammation is an important factor driving various neurological diseases. Myelin debris, released during the demyelination process in various neurological diseases (such as stroke, spinal cord injury (SCI), multiple sclerosis (MS), traumatic brain injury (TBI), and neurodegenerative diseases), can act as an inf...

Lipid Droplet Accumulation Mediates Macrophage Survival and Treg Recruitment via the CCL20/CCR6 Axis in Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Lipid Droplet Accumulation Mediates Macrophage Survival and Treg Recruitment in Human Hepatocellular Carcinoma via the CCL20/CCR6 Axis Background Macrophages are a major component of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and regulate the entire tumor process. In the TME, macrophages exhibit dynamic heterogeneity and plasticity, which affects their role ...

Tissue-Resident Memory T Cells Break Tolerance to Renal Autoantigens and Orchestrate Immune-Mediated Nephritis

Special Report: The Role of Tissue-Resident Memory T Cells in Breaking Self-Antigen Immune Tolerance and Immune-Mediated Nephritis in the Kidney Introduction Immune-mediated nephritis is one of the major causes of acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. While the role of B cells and antibodies in such diseases has been extensively studied, ...

BAG6 restricts pancreatic cancer progression by suppressing the release of IL33-presenting extracellular vesicles and the activation of mast cells

Research Report on the Mechanism of BAG6 Restricting Pancreatic Cancer Progression Research Background Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has an extremely poor prognosis, with a median survival of only 6 months, urgently requiring new treatment methods. In recent years, studies have found that extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by tumor cel...

4-1BB-encoding CAR causes cell death via sequestration of the ubiquitin-modifying enzyme A20

Background Introduction Chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T cells) have shown great potential in immunotherapy for certain hematological malignancies. However, how the CD28 and 4-1BB costimulatory domains included in CAR molecules function in CAR-T cells is still not fully understood. Both CD28 and 4-1BB domains exhibit significantly different...

Targeting the Intestinal Circadian Clock by Meal Timing Ameliorates Gastrointestinal Inflammation

Research on Alleviating Gastrointestinal Inflammation by Adjusting Intestinal Circadian Rhythm through Feeding Time Background Information Impaired expression of intestinal circadian rhythm genes has been observed in biopsies from patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Disruption of circadian rhythms, such as that occurring in shift worker...
