Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT Pulmonary hypertension caused by fibrosing mediastinitis (PH‐FM) is a high‐risk condition with limited validated tools for prognostic assessment. Although diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) predicts outcomes in several cardiopulmonary diseases, its prognostic value in PH‐FM remains unclear.

An Update on Invasive Fungal Infections in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients
Transplant Infectious Disease, Volume 28, Issue 4, July/August 2026.ABSTRACT Invasive fungal infections (IFI) remain a significant infection‐related complication in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs), the incidence of which has not changed overtime. With a focus on studies and data published after 2019, this narrative review provides an update on the epidemiology and prevention of IFIs in SOTRs and highlights ...

Study of Histoplasma-Induced Macrophage Apoptosis
, 2007 組織胞漿菌是一種寄生在巨噬細胞內之病原性胞內寄生真菌。在受到感染的寄主當中，噬細胞不只是胞漿菌之目的細胞，亦為清除感染之作用細胞並且能夠提供抗原給抗原呈獻細胞。在實驗室之前的研究當中發現到噬細胞在吞入活胞漿菌之後會進行細胞凋亡。樹突狀細胞即可由吞噬死亡之噬細胞當中獲得胞漿菌之抗原，交叉呈獻抗原已活化CD8 T細胞。因此，胞漿菌引發之噬細胞凋亡對於CD8 T 細胞之活化非常地重要。然而，真菌和噬細胞間的交互作用如何引發噬細胞的細胞凋亡仍是一個待解決的課題。本研究的主題當中，就是界定引發噬細胞凋亡的分子 ...
