Pharmacy‐Based Immunization Delivery: A Comprehensive History and Current Challenges
ABSTRACT Pharmacists and their teams have a long history of involvement with vaccines. This paper describes the contributions of pharmacy‐based immunization delivery in the United States from the 1800's to date. Early activities centered around storage and distribution of antitoxins and vaccines. From the 1950s through the early 1990s, pharmacists were

This study explores the interaction between Diphtheria Toxin (DT) and Bcl‐2 in HT‐29 cells. Integrating molecular docking with gene expression analysis, we demonstrate DT's high‐affinity binding to Bcl‐2 and a significant downregulation of BCL2 mRNA. These findings suggest that DT modulates anti‐apoptotic pathways, influencing colorectal cancer cell ...

Diphtheria's disturbing comeback: an alarming resurgence in Pakistan
Dear Respected Editor, Diphtheria, caused by Corynebacterium diphtheria, affects the throat and nasopharynx. Transmission occurs through airborne respiratory droplets, secretions, or direct contact. Toxigenic strains produce diphtheria toxin (DT) that

Acromegaly Presenting With Cricoarytenoid Joint Arthropathy
Excess growth hormone in acromegaly induces characteristic acral and soft tissue overgrowth (particularly in the face and hands), arthropathies, as well as cardiovascular and metabolic complications. Similar proliferative changes can occur in the larynx, where hypertrophy of the arytenoid and cricoid cartilages may impair vocal fold mobility.

We generated Thy1‐Cre–driven GCaMP8 transgenic rats by mating Thy1‐Cre rats with knock‐in rats carrying a floxed GCaMP8‐STOP cassette in the β‐actin locus. Robust neuronal GCaMP8 expression enabled transcranial calcium imaging of the auditory cortex, establishing this model as a powerful tool for minimally invasive cortical macro‐imaging and functional

Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are key regulators of the pancreatic tumor microenvironment. Through metabolic reprogramming, CAFs support tumor growth by providing nutrients and remodeling extracellular matrix. CAF heterogeneity, including myCAF, iCAF, and apCAF subsets, contributes to immune modulation and therapeutic resistance.

A Case for Anti‐IgE Vaccination
ABSTRACT Immunoglobulin E (IgE) plays a central role in allergic diseases by binding to the high‐affinity receptor FcεRI on mast cells and basophils, where allergen‐induced crosslinking triggers potent inflammatory responses. Various mechanisms by which IgE responses are generated and functionally regulated remain elusive despite many years of research.
