HHV‐8/KSHV in Solid Organ Transplantation: Current Gaps of Knowledge and Future Directions
Risk mitigation strategies, including donors/recipients screening, DNAemia monitoring in recipients at risk, CNI‐to‐mTOR inhibitors switch, antivirals, and rituximab for KICS, may mitigate the impact of HHV‐8/KSHV infection in SOT. This review provides an update on KICS, identifies research gaps, and summarizes advances in screening and management ...

P2Y2R Deficiency Attenuates Experimental Autoimmune Uveitis Development
We aimed to study the role of the nucleotide receptor P2Y2R in the development of experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU). EAU was induced in P2Y2+/+ and P2Y2-/- mice by immunization with IRBP peptide or by adoptive transfer of in vitro restimulated semi-purified IRBP-specific enriched T lymphocytes from spleens and lymph nodes isolated from native C57Bl/

A Case Study and Review of the Literature on IgA Nephropathy in Crohn's Disease
ABSTRACT IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most frequently reported glomerular disease associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), particularly Crohn's disease (CD), although pediatric cases remain rare. We report IgAN in a 16‐year‐old male with CD following intestinal surgery and during long‐term infliximab therapy, with renal impairment occurring ...
