ABSTRACT Clinical trials combining radiotherapy (RT) with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) have shown improved outcomes in only a fraction of patients, and optimal strategies for integrating these modalities remain under intense investigation. With a few exceptions, phase III combination trials have yielded disappointing results.

Regional variation in expression of major histocompatibility class II antigens in enterocytes of postnatal and adult mice [PDF]
The constitutive expression and ontogeny of major histocompatibility class II antigens in enterocytes of small intestine of adult and postnatal C3H/He mice were investigated. In adults, the immunoreaction revealed that the expression of class II antigens

Mechanism of modified mRNA structure in COVID-19 vaccines for inducing neutralizing antibodies
The development of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines is closely linked to advancements in mRNA manufacturing technology. Structural modifications, such as replacing uridine with 1-methylpseudouridine (1mψ), enhance translation efficiency and help the mRNA evade ...

This review systematically summarizes the central role of cysteine peptidases in modulating antigen‐presenting cell (APC) function and antitumor immune responses, highlighting their critical significance in overcoming tumor immune evasion. Current research has established that cysteine peptidase subtypes, including cathepsins B, S, L, and X, exert ...

Resting respiratory tract dendritic cells preferentially stimulate T helper cell Type 2(Th2) responses and require obligatory cytokine signals for induction of Th1 immunity [PDF]
Consistent with their role in host defense, mature dendritic cells (DCs) from central lymphoid organs preferentially prime for T helper cell type 1 (Th1)-polarized immunity.

Advances in Immunological Combination Therapy for Colorectal Cancer
Review the progress of combined immunotherapy for colorectal cancer. ABSTRACT Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been utilized extensively and shown to be therapeutically beneficial in the treatment of solid tumors in recent years. Nonetheless, considerable heterogeneity in Colorectal cancer (CRC) requires careful consideration.

Gene expression signatures from single‐cell transcriptomics predict Sjögren's syndrome
A machine learning‐based 12‐gene signature (SjS.Sig) was developed from scRNA‐seq data of PBMCs from Sjögren's syndrome patients. The model was validated using bulk RNA‐seq datasets and further confirmed through flow cytometry and qPCR analysis in an independent clinical cohort, demonstrating robust diagnostic potential.

Strategies and mechanisms of precision genome engineering: From gene editing to genome writing
In this review, we examined the progression of genome manipulation from stochastic nuclease‐mediated cutting toward precise editing and programmable genome writing. We discussed tools like multi‐kilobase RNA‐guided integrators and Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐designed effectors and showed how these advances enable researchers to treat genomes as ...

Bile acid metabolism and signaling in human and animal health: A One Health perspective
Bile acids maintain host homeostasis through enterohepatic circulation, microbial transformation, and bile acid receptor signaling, thereby regulating glucose and lipid metabolism, intestinal barrier integrity, and immunity. These effects support human disease intervention and health‐oriented animal production, reducing drug dependence and residue ...
