Anti‐Integrin αvβ6 Autoantibodies as Diagnostic and Monitoring Biomarkers for Pediatric‐Onset Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
Levels of anti‐integrin αvβ6 antibodies were significantly higher in pediatric‐onset primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) than in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and may reflect disease activity. These antibodies may serve as a novel biomarker for distinguishing PSC from AIH and for monitoring disease progression.

Toward a Synthetic Data Revolution: Diffusion Model‐Enhanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma Prediction in Steatotic Liver Disease

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Steatotic liver disease (SLD) encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum with varying risks of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Limited sample sizes limit the development of predictive models, particularly for rare outcomes. This study evaluated whether generative artificial intelligence (AI)‐based synthetic data augmentation can enhance HCC risk

Efficacy of dolutegravir/lamivudine in adults with HIV‐1 and isolated reactive hepatitis B core antibody: Insights from Phase 3/3b study results

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives As two‐drug HIV‐1 antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens become standard, data gaps remain concerning their safety and efficacy among people with isolated reactive hepatitis B core antibodies (anti‐HBc). Here, we assessed the safety and efficacy of dolutegravir/lamivudine (DTG/3TC) versus three‐ or four‐drug regimens (3DRs/4DRs ...

Sexually Transmitted Infection Prevalence and Determinants Among Sexual Health Clinic Attendees in Bucharest, Romania

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
Cross‐sectional study among 70 sexual health clinic attendees (70% MSM) in Bucharest combining multisite STI testing with knowledge, attitudes, and practices assessment. Key findings include 35.5% bacterial STI prevalence, essential extragenital testing, and cost barriers to screening uptake.

CD49a expression defines a metabolically robust, cytokine‐biased liver NK cell subset in rhesus macaques during lentivirus infection

Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
Liver‐resident NK cells (CD49a+ NK cells) in rhesus macaques display distinct activating receptor and metabolic markers enhanced phenotype compared with hepatic NK cell subsets (CD49a−) in the liver. These cells exhibit heightened cytokine polyfunctionality with restrained cytotoxic responses upon mitogen stimulation in comparison with CD49a− NK cell ...

Innate Immune Activation Is a Strong Suppressor of CCL22 and Impedes Regulatory T Cell–Dendritic Cell Interaction

Immunology, EarlyView.
During homeostasis, CCL22 is secreted by dendritic cells (DC), which mediate contacts between regulatory T cells (Treg) and DC to maintain immune balance. Activation of innate immunity via microbes or pattern recognition receptor (PRR) agonists induces the secretion of several soluble factors (e.g., type I and II interferons, IL‐10), which mediate ...
