Single‐cell transcriptomics reveals cellular heterogeneity and phenotypic transitions of smooth muscle cells in aortic dissection

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
We utilized single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq) to investigate cellular heterogeneity and signaling networks in aortic dissection (AD) tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues. The analysis identified five smooth muscle cell (SMC) subtypes, with SMC2 linked to fibrosis and SMC3 associated with inflammation.

Pattern recognition receptor signaling in otitis media: immune crosstalk and pathogenic mechanisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Otitis media (OM) remains a prevalent and multifactorial inflammatory disease of the middle ear, especially in pediatric populations. The immune system, particularly pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), plays a central role in detecting microbial ...

The T‐Cell Response Mechanism in Human Papillomavirus‐Associated Cervical Cancer and New Strategies for Immunotherapy

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a double‐stranded DNA virus that infects human skin and mucosal tissues exclusively. The German scientist Harald zur Hausen was awarded the 2008 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovery of the link between HPV infection and cervical cancer.

Safety Assessment and Hypoglycemic Effect of Moringa oleifera Lam. Seed Lectin (WSMoL) in Alloxan‐Induced Diabetic Mice

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Moringa oleifera Lam. seeds contain WSMoL, a lectin previously studied for toxicity and pharmacological effects. In this study, we investigated WSMoL (10, 25, or 50 mg/kg i.p.) for acute and 14‐day repeated‐dose toxicity, as well as genotoxicity, in Swiss mice.

Single‐Cell Profiling Identifies CLEC5A+ Macrophages as Key Drivers of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Via CCL5‐Mediated M1 Polarization

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a life‐threatening cardiovascular disease with limited therapeutic options. Through single‐cell RNA sequencing of aortic tissues from healthy individuals and TAA patients (105,541 cells), we identified CLEC5A+macrophages as the predominant pathogenic cell population exhibiting the highest M1 polarization score.

Immunogenetics of invasive aspergillosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Invasive aspergillosis is one of the most important infections in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients, with an incidence rate of 5-15% and an associated mortality of 30-60%. It remains unclear why certain patients develop invasive aspergillosis

Clinical Interpretation of Platelet Activation Marker sCLEC‐2 in Antiphospholipid Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Soluble C‐type lectin‐like receptor 2 (sCLEC‐2), a marker of platelet activation, was evaluated in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). Plasma sCLEC‐2 levels and the sCLEC‐2/D‐dimer ratio were significantly elevated in APS compared with other collagen diseases and healthy controls.

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...
