TNF Pathway‐Mediated Tolerogenic T‐Cell Trajectory Driven by Allergen Immunotherapy
The study shows that AIT re‐establishes local immune equilibrium by restoring Th17/Treg balance, while circulating Th17 cells remain functionally impaired. The transition from pro‐inflammatory Th17 to regulatory T cell states during AIT identifies Tr17 cells as an intermediate cell population.

Clinical and genetic characterization of intellectual disability
This study examines the etiological factors and comorbidities in a large cohort of Finnish patients with intellectual disability. Genetic causes—including chromosomal abnormalities and pathogenic gene variants—were more frequently identified in individuals with moderate to profound intellectual disability.
