This review highlights how autoimmune diseases arise from intertwined immunological, genetic, and environmental factors, emphasizing gut microbiota dysbiosis as a pivotal driver. It outlines emerging nanotechnology‐based strategies—such as liposomes, hydrogels, and polymeric nanoparticles—that enhance targeted drug delivery, minimize systemic toxicity,

Epitope mapping of sialyl Lewisx bound to E-selectin using saturation transfer difference NMR experiments [PDF]
A complex between sialyl Lewisx (α-D-Neu5Ac-[2→3]- β-D-Gal-[1→4]-[α-L-Fuc-(1→3)]-β-D-GlcNAc-O-[CH2]8 COOMe) and E-selectin was studied using saturation transfer difference (STD) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments.

Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Rheumatic Diseases
Mucosal‐associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate‐like T cells defined by their semi‐invariant T cell receptor and restriction by the major histocompatibility complex class I–related molecule (MR1). These cells are primarily activated by microbial‐derived metabolites presented by MR1 or by cytokines.

Novel anti-tumour necrosis factor receptor-1 (TNFR1) domain antibody prevents pulmonary inflammation in experimental acute lung injury. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is a pleiotropic cytokine with both injurious and protective functions, which are thought to diverge at the level of its two cell surface receptors, TNFR1 and TNFR2.

Prothrombotic Activation of Platelet Pannexin‐1 Channels in Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Objective ATP is released from platelets through both degranulation and pannexin‐1 (PANX1) channels. ATP then activates P2X receptors to amplify platelet activation via calcium‐dependent signaling. The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of platelet PANX1 channels in the pathophysiology of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), an acquired ...
