Cellular Identity Crisis: RD3 Loss Fuels Plasticity and Immune Silence in Progressive Neuroblastoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Researchers discovered that therapy‐induced loss of RD3 protein in neuroblastoma triggers a dangerous shift: cancer cells become more stem‐like, invasive, and resistant to treatment while evading immune detection. RD3 loss suppresses antigen presentation and boosts immune checkpoints, creating an immune‐silent environment.

Engineered CAR‐NKT Extracellular Vesicles Suppress Tumor Progression and Enhance Antitumor Immunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
TM4SF1‐nanobody engineered CAR‐natural killer T–derived extracellular vesicles (CARTM4SF1‐EVs) provide a cell‐free alternative to CAR‐NKT therapy, achieving potent, targeted antitumor activity with reduced toxicity. CARTM4SF1‐EVs induce immunogenic cell death, remodel the tumor microenvironment, and enhance CD8⁺ T‐cell antitumor immunity.

Engineering Tertiary Lymphoid Structures: Nanomedicine, Bioengineering, and Biomaterials for Precision Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This review explains how biomaterials and nanoparticles can be used to induce or modulate tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs), which are ectopic immune hubs that form in nonlymphoid tissues during chronic disease and cancer. By comparing different methods, the article highlights design principles for modeling TLSs or recapitulating specific TLS ...

Interaction between the Lentil Lipid Transfer Protein Lc-LTP2 and Its Novel Signal Ligand PI(4,5)P2

open access: yesMembranes, 2020
It is known that plant lipid transfer proteins (LTPs) bind a broad spectrum of ligands including fatty acids (FAs), phospho- and glycolipids, acyl-coenzyme A and secondary metabolites.

Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Rheumatic Diseases

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
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.

Periodontal diseases and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Present and future

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract For more than two decades the possible association between periodontal diseases and adverse pregnancy outcomes has been extensively evaluated. Numerous observational, intervention, and mechanistic studies have offered valuable information on this topic.

Disruption of Fas-Fas Ligand Signaling, Apoptosis, and Innate Immunity by Bacterial Pathogens

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2014
Fas ligand (FasL, CD95L) is a type-II membrane protein withinthe tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily of death receptors [1].FasL shares 25%–30% sequence homology with related familymember proteins such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa) andTNF ...

The C-terminal region of hepatitis C core protein is required for Fas-ligand independent apoptosis in Jurkat cells by facilitating Fas oligomerization

open access: yesVirology, 2003
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is remarkable for its ability to establish persistent infection. Studies suggest that HCV core protein modulates immune responses to viral infection and can bind Fas receptor in vitro. To further examine the role of HCV core protein in Fas signaling, full-length (aa 1-192) and truncated (aa 1-152) HCV core proteins were ...

Biomarkers of Lupus Nephritis Histopathology: Where Do We Stand?

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) is characterized by a variable disease course, necessitating continuous monitoring. There is an urgent need to identify noninvasive biomarkers. By reviewing and critically assessing the quality of existing studies on LN biomarkers correlating with histopathology, we here explore the challenges in promoting their use in ...
