Expanding the Immunologic and Neuronal Landscape of IgE‐Mediated Anaphylaxis
ABSTRACT Anaphylaxis is a life‐threatening immunoglobulin E (IgE)‐mediated type I hypersensitivity reaction with rising prevalence and burden. It involves mast cell degranulation upon cross‐linking of antigen on mast cell‐bound IgE. Mechanisms of IgE‐mediated anaphylaxis remain incompletely understood, particularly the induction of systemic symptoms ...

Trained Immunity and Cardiovascular Risk: An Immunological Perspective
ABSTRACT Systemic inflammation is a key driver of atherogenesis and its complications. While anti‐inflammatory therapies targeting pathways such as IL‐1β and IL‐6 have shown promise in established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), potential systemic effects raise concerns about immune suppression and infection, underscoring the need for ...

Generation of unique mono-hydroxy-eicosatetraenoic acids from arachidonic acid by human neutrophils. [PDF]
Incubation of [3H]arachidonic acid with the 17,000-g supernatant from homogenates of human neutrophils in the presence of indomethacin generated the unique metabolites 9-OH-5,7,11,14-eicosatetraenoic acid (9-HETE) and 8-HETE, in addition to 12-HETE, 11 ...

Preferential Generation of 15-HETE-PE Induced by IL-13 Regulates Goblet Cell Differentiation in Human Airway Epithelial Cells [PDF]
Type 2–associated goblet cell hyperplasia and mucus hypersecretion are well known features of asthma. 15-Lipoxygenase-1 (15LO1) is induced by the type 2 cytokine IL-13 in human airway epithelial cells (HAECs) in vitro and is increased in fresh asthmatic ...

The P2X7 Receptor and Its Relation to Neglected Tropical Diseases: Focusing on Chagas Disease
Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, is a neglected tropical disease (NTD) that can lead to severe cardiac complications, including chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy. While NTDs are caused by a variety of pathogens—such as protozoa, bacteria, viruses, and helminths, Chagas disease remains underexplored, particularly regarding host immune responses.

Efferocytosis in Health and Disease
Efferocytosis in health and disease. Efferocytosis integrates apoptotic cell recognition, engulfment, digestion, and reprogramming to link cell clearance with tissue repair. Molecular checkpoints balance “eat‐me” signals such as phosphatidylserine against inhibitory “don't‐eat‐me” cues like CD47, while TAM receptors, scavenger receptors, and integrins ...

Inhibitory effect of calotropis gigantea extract on ovalbumin-induced airway inflammation and arachidonic acid induced inflammation in a murine model of asthma [PDF]
The root of Calotropis gigantea has been reported as a traditional folkloric medicine in treatment of asthma in the Indian literature. Root contain α-and β-amyrin are reported to possess anti-lipoxygenase activity.

15-HETE is the main eicosanoid present in mucus of ulcerative protocolitis [PDF]
Prostaglandins, leukotrienes and mono-hydroxy acid products of arachidonic acid were measured in mucus of freshly recovered morning stools of a patient with an exacerbation of ulcerative proctocolitis. Eicosanoids in ether extracts were separated by high

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive and life‐threatening disease with limited treatment options. Sex differences are apparent in PAH, specifically in the pathophysiology, prognoses and pharmacological responses of patients. Inflammation and its resolution, which often differ between sexes, are dysregulated in chronic inflammatory ...
