Retrospective Analysis of Blood Donor Deferral Reasons and Optimization Suggestions for Deferral Policies

open access: yesiLABMED, EarlyView.
This retrospective study analyzes the deferral reasons for 148,282 blood donors during 2019–2023 (overall deferral rate: 12.37%), identifying primary deferral reasons (e.g., elevated ALT for temporary deferral at 51.33%, HBsAg positivity for permanent deferral at 4.12%).

Increased proviral load in HTLV-1-infected patients with rheumatoid arthritis or connective tissue disease

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2005
Background Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) proviral load is related to the development of HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) and has also been shown to be elevated in the peripheral blood in HTLV-1-infected ...

Human Milk Practices in Swedish Neonatal Units: Results From a Nationwide Survey

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The aim of this study was to describe the routines for handling mother's own milk and donor human milk in Swedish neonatal care units related to national guidelines. Methods A web‐based survey of 24 of 38 neonatal units and 19 of 28 human milk banks in Sweden. Results Despite national guidelines, breast milk handling varied widely.

HTLV‐1 Tax Reshapes the DNA‐Binding Pattern of Transcription Factor IRF4 and Disrupts Host Gene Regulation

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
Proteomic mapping of Tax complexes in HTLV‐1–infected T‐cells identified IRF4 as a Tax interactor. Chromatin profiling showed Tax reprograms IRF4 occupancy with H3K27ac gains at super‐enhancers; Tax–IRF4 co‐expression altered chromatin accessibility and transcription, and ATL‐associated IRF4 mutants partially phenocopied these changes. ABSTRACT Human T‐

Plasma Elastase Screening in Hematological Disease Reveals Its Potential as a Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarker in Hematological Malignancies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neutrophil‐extracellular traps are net‐like material released by triggered neutrophils and composed of decondensed chromatin linked to nuclear proteins. Elastase, one of the fourth most represented neutrophil‐specific serine proteases stored in azurophil granules of naïve neutrophils, exerts various actions, including degradation ...

Absence of HTLV-1/2 infection and dermatological diseases in Manaus, State of Amazonas, Brazil

open access: yesRevista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2014
Introduction The prevalence of human T-cell lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2 (HTLV-1/2) infection is heterogeneous across different populations. We tested the hypothesis that HTLV-1/2 infection occurs more often in dermatological patients.

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

open access: yesImmunology, 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 ...

Harnessing the Therapeutic Potential of Cell Secretomes and Extracellular Vesicles for Craniofacial Regenerative Applications

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The scoping review summarizes the current preclinical and clinical evidence for the use of “cell‐free” therapies in craniofacial (periodontal, bone and soft‐tissue) regeneration. It also aims to highlight key challenges and strategies towards the clinical translation of these therapies.
