Metabolic Rewiring Controlled by HIF-1α Tunes IgA-Producing B-Cell Differentiation and Intestinal Inflammation

Metabolic Rewiring Controlled by HIF-1α Tunes IgA-Producing B-Cell Differentiation and Intestinal Inflammation Background Introduction Germinal centers (GC) are critical sites for the clonal expansion of immune B cells and the affinity maturation of antibodies, as well as the occurrence of antibody class switching. Within the GC, B cells undergo so...

TH17 Cell-Intrinsic Glutathione/Mitochondrial-IL-22 Axis Protects Against Intestinal Inflammation

Intrinsic Glutathione/Mitochondrial-IL-22 Axis in TH17 Cells and Its Protective Mechanism Against Intestinal Inflammation Background Introduction A large amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is generated in the intestine, and the role of T-cell antioxidant mechanisms in maintaining intestinal homeostasis remains unclear. This paper studies the i...

Neutrophil-derived PAD4 induces citrullination of CKMT1 exacerbates mucosal inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease

In recent years, increasing evidence from research on Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) has shown that neutrophils play a crucial role in the occurrence and development of intestinal inflammation. IBD includes Crohn’s Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC), and while its pathogenesis is not yet fully understood, abnormal immune responses are clear...
