Dupilumab Alters Both the Bacterial and Fungal Skin Microbiomes of Patients with Atopic Dermatitis

Microorganisms
The skin microbiome at lesion sites in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) is characterized by dysbiosis. Although the administration of dupilumab, an IL-4Rα inhibitor, improves dysbiosis in the bacterial microbiome, information regarding the fungal ...

LL‐37: Biological Mechanisms and Emerging Therapeutic Applications in Intestinal Disease

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Human cathelicidin peptide LL‐37 is encoded by the CAMP gene and plays a key role in innate immunity. It maintains intestinal homeostasis through antibacterial, immunomodulation, and tissue repair functions. This paper reviews the multiple functions of LL‐37 in the intestinal‐immune axis and its contribution to intestinal immune homeostasis. A

Innate Lymphoid Cells in Tissue Homeostasis and Diseases

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a heterogeneous group of immune cells with phenotypic and functional plasticity. ILCs dynamically regulate various immune cell types and play a crucial role in the pathophysiological processes of specific organs during sepsis. Targeting ILCs is a promising strategy for treating sepsis.

Intratumoral Microorganisms in Tumors: Current Understanding and Emerging Therapeutic Strategies

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
Tumors are no longer viewed as sterile but dynamic ecosystems harboring low‐biomass intratumoral microbiota. These microbes, derived from gut, oral cavity, or circulation, shape tumorigenesis and therapy response via core mechanisms: immunomodulation (regulating T cells, macrophages), metabolic reprogramming (SCFAs, indoles, bile acids), chronic ...
