Short peptide perturbs spermatogenesis via immune microenvironment dysregulation and mitochondrial imbalance

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In the blood–testis barrier, occludin is crucial for tight junctions. This study demonstrates that occludin‐targeting short peptides disrupt junction integrity, inducing immune cell infiltration, tumor necrosis factor‐α/interleukin‐6 secretion and mitochondrial dysfunction, ultimately triggering apoptosis.

The potential roles of herpesvirus and cytomegalovirus in the exacerbation of pemphigus vulgaris

Dermatology Practical & Conceptual, 2018
Background: Among exogenous etiologies, the critical role of microbial agents such as herpesviruses (HSV1/2) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) in triggering and flaring autoimmune conditions such as pemphigus vulgaris (PV) has been recently discovered ...

Discontinuation of Immunotherapy in Patients With Relapsing Myelitis Without AQP4/MOG Antibodies

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study assesses the outcomes of immunotherapy discontinuation in patients with relapsing seronegative idiopathic myelitis (SIM), a condition that remains uninvestigated due to its rarity. We reviewed records from 77 patients with relapsing SIM at the National Cancer Center of Korea, focusing on 11 who discontinued treatment after a median ...

SARS‐CoV‐2 Is Linked to Brain Volume Loss in Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The impact of SARS‐CoV‐2 infection on brain and spinal cord pathology in patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) remains unclear. We aimed to describe changes in brain lesion activity and brain and spinal cord volumes following SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.

Association between red cell distribution width and response to methotrexate in rheumatoid arthritis

Reumatismo, 2020
Red cell distribution width (RDW) is an unconventional biomarker of inflammation. We aimed to explore its role as a predictor of treatment response in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Sunlight and vitamin D for bone health and prevention of autoimmune diseases, cancers, and cardiovascular disease.

American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2004
Most humans depend on sun exposure to satisfy their requirements for vitamin D. Solar ultraviolet B photons are absorbed by 7-dehydrocholesterol in the skin, leading to its transformation to previtamin D3, which is rapidly converted to vitamin D3. Season,

Plasma microRNA Signature as Predictive Marker of Clinical Response to Therapy During Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Despite the availability of effective therapies for Multiple Sclerosis (MS), the unpredictable nature of disease progression and the variability in individual treatment outcomes call for reliable biomarkers. This pilot study aims to investigate the potential of plasma circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) as predictive biomarkers for ...
