Antibiotics-Induced Intestinal Immunomodulation Attenuates Experimental Autoimmune Neuritis (EAN)

Antibiotic-Induced Intestinal Immunomodulation Alleviates Experimental Autoimmune Neuritis (EAN) Academic Background Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is an acute autoimmune disease that causes inflammatory demyelination of peripheral nerves. As the most common cause of acute flaccid paralysis, its global annual incidence is 1-4 cases per 100,000 peopl...

Association of EIF2AK3 Variants with Neurocognitive Impairment in People Living with HIV

Research Report on the Association between Gene Variants and Neurocognitive Impairment in HIV Patients Over the past few decades, antiretroviral therapy (ART) has greatly improved the health of people infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). However, even with effective viral suppression and partial immune system recovery, up to 50% of Peo...

Potential Role of BMAL1 in Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Depression-Like Behavior and Its Associated "Inflammatory Storm"

The Role of BMAL1 in LPS-Induced Depressive Behavior and Related “Inflammatory Storm” Introduction According to the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study, mental disorders are listed as one of the top 10 causes of global burden, with depression being a major contributor. Over 350 million people worldwide suffer from depression, making it the most com...

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...

Mechanistic Study on SENP6 Regulation of IFN-I Signaling Pathway and Antiviral Activity

Academic Background and Research Question In antiviral efficacy research, type I interferon (IFN-I) has been widely used clinically due to its broad-spectrum antiviral properties. However, the specific signaling mechanism and regulatory modes of IFN-I remain complex and not fully elucidated. In light of this, experts have begun to pay attention to ...

GITR Exacerbates Lysophosphatidylcholine-induced Macrophage Pyroptosis in Sepsis via Posttranslational Regulation of NLRP3

Research Background Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction syndrome caused by the body’s abnormal response to microbial infection. It has high morbidity and mortality, mainly due to excessive inflammatory response and metabolic disorders. Studies have shown that myeloid cells (such as monocytes and macrophages) play a key role in the pathog...

Neutrophils Disrupt B-1a Cell Homeostasis by Targeting Siglec-G to Exacerbate Sepsis

Research Report: Neutrophils Disrupt B-1a Cell Homeostasis by Targeting Siglec-G, Exacerbating Sepsis Background Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated immune response to infection. The immune system dysfunction accompanying sepsis is primarily triggered by pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-a...

Integrating Single-Nucleus RNA Sequencing and Spatial Transcriptomics to Elucidate a Specialized Subpopulation of Astrocytes, Microglia, and Vascular Cells in a Mouse Model of Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Sepsis-Associated Encephalopathy

Study on Mouse Sepsis-Associated Encephalopathy Based on Single Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics Background Organ dysfunction leading to death in sepsis is related to an imbalance in the host’s response to infection, and it has a high global mortality rate. Recent studies have shown that sepsis can cause brain dysfunction, known as sepsis-associate...

Herpes Simplex Virus 1 Accelerates the Progression of Alzheimer’s Disease by Modulating Microglial Phagocytosis and Activating NLRP3 Pathway

HSV-1 Infection Accelerates the Progression of Alzheimer’s Disease: Through the Regulation of Microglial Phagocytosis and Activation of the NLRP3 Pathway Research Background With the intensification of global aging, Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) has become a neurodegenerative disease affecting millions of people. In recent years, an increasing number of...

Microglial PDCD4 Deficiency Mitigates Neuroinflammation-Associated Depression via Facilitating Daxx Mediated PPARγ/IL-10 Signaling

Deletion of Microglia PDCD4 Alleviates Neuroinflammation-Associated Depression by Promoting DAXX-Mediated PPARγ/IL-10 Signaling Background In recent years, neuroinflammatory processes have been demonstrated to be associated with various psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, depression, and anxiety. A common feature of these diseases is th...
