Physical Immunoevasion: Attenuated Mechanical Communication Facilitates Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Cells to Evade Macrophage Attack Background Introduction Cancer metastasis is a complex and daunting challenge, with metastatic cancer cells capable of evading immune cell attacks, breaching the extracellular matrix (ECM), and migrating to other sit...
Predictive Autoantibody Signature for Multiple Sclerosis Academic Background and Research Significance Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease that primarily affects the white matter of the central nervous system (CNS). Previous studies have mostly suggested that T cells play a major role in the pathogenesis of MS. Howe...
The Effectiveness of Bivalent CAR T-Cell Therapy Targeting EGFR and IL13Rα2 in Treating Recurrent Glioblastoma In recent years, the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma (RGBM) has been continually explored and improved, yet overall survival rates remain less than one year, presenting a significant challenge. The limitations of existing treatments an...
Spatial Enrichment and Genomic Analysis Reveal Association between NOMO1 and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Introduction Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a severe neurodegenerative disease in which motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord gradually degrade. Although the genetic susceptibility of sporadic ALS patients remains uncertain, TDP-4...
NMDA Receptor Autoantibodies Mainly Damage Extrasynaptic Components Background Information In recent years, neuroimmunology research has revealed various neurological and psychiatric diseases associated with autoantibodies. In these disorders, autoantibodies target various molecules, including receptor membrane proteins, causing abnormal neural sys...
Research Background The core focus of this study is the manifestation of gray matter atrophy in neuroinflammatory diseases. Gray matter atrophy typically appears in four types of neuroinflammatory demyelinating diseases: Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders (NMOSD) positive (AQP4+) and negative (AQP4-) for aquaporin-4 an...
Integrated Molecular and Spatial Analysis Reveals Evolutionary Dynamics and Tumor-Immune Interactions in In Situ and Invasive Acral Melanoma Academic Background of the Paper Melanoma is a type of skin cancer, and acral melanoma (AM) is a kind that occurs on non-exposed areas such as the palms, soles, and under the nails and is particularly common a...
Research Report: Predictive Role of Cerebrospinal Fluid Routine Parameters in the Disease Process of Multiple Sclerosis Background Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is characterized by a highly variable and unpredictable disease course. In the diagnosis of MS, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis is often a standard procedure. However, there has been ongoing d...
This study revolves around the protein arginine methyltransferase PRMT9, revealing its important role in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and its potential as an anticancer target. Researchers found that PRMT9 expression levels were significantly elevated in AML stem cells and leukemic cells. Through gene editing and chemical probes, they discovered th...
This study utilized a machine learning framework to explore the underlying cell states and cellular ecosystems constituting soft tissue sarcomas, and associated them with patient prognosis and response to immunotherapy. Research Background: Soft tissue sarcomas are rare and highly heterogeneous malignancies of connective tissues, with limited syste...
