Protein Lactylation and Metabolic Regulation of the Zoonotic Parasite Toxoplasma gondii

A Study on Protein Lactylation and Metabolic Regulation Reveals New Areas of Toxoplasma gondii Biology Background: Toxoplasma gondii is a globally distributed protozoan parasite that infects over 30% of the world’s population. It causes toxoplasmosis, a widespread zoonotic disease. The parasite has a complex life cycle, including sexual and asexual...

Novel Time-Dependent Multi-Omics Integration in Sepsis-Associated Liver Dysfunction

Time-Dependent Multi-Omics Integration in Sepsis-Associated Liver Dysfunction Introduction Sepsis, especially severe cases, causes multiple organ dysfunction due to systemic infection, resulting in up to 5 million deaths globally each year. Traditionally, Sepsis-Associated Liver Dysfunction (SALD) was considered a condition accompanied by jaundice ...

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...

Sex Differences in the Risk of Stroke Associated with Traditional and Non-Traditional Factors in a US Cohort of People with HIV Infection

Study on Gender Differences and Stroke Risk Among HIV-Infected Individuals Background Individuals with HIV infection may face a higher risk of stroke, particularly women.

Clinical Impact of Preemptive Pharmacogenomic Testing on Antiplatelet Therapy in a Real-World Setting

Clinical Impact of Pharmacogenomic Testing on Antiplatelet Therapy Background Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is changing the use of P2Y12 inhibitors (antiplatelet drugs), which are widely used in the treatment of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), neurovascular problems, and vascular diseases. Among them, clopidogrel is a commonly used P2Y12 inhibitor. This pr...
