Navigating an STI diagnosis: The role of social support, intergenerational learning, and transformative growth among Black women

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Black women face a myriad of challenges that heighten their susceptibility to sexually transmitted infections (STIs), resulting in a disproportionate impact of STIs among this population. Yet, there is a lack of research that explores how women navigate these diagnoses with resilience.

Local Specific IgE Levels Can Predict and Monitor the Therapeutic Response to Subcutaneous Immunotherapy With House Dust Mite

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Identifying predictive and monitoring biomarkers for allergen immunotherapy response is crucial for enhancing clinical efficacy. This study aims to investigate the systemic and local levels of immunoglobulins and identify potential biomarkers in house dust mite (HDM) allergic rhinitis (AR) patients who are undergoing subcutaneous ...

Optimizing the dengue virus infection mouse model: Comparing different backgrounds and infection route for enhanced stability

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Optimized dengue fever animal model: IFNAR−/− BALB/c mice with intraperitoneal injection. Background screening: Between IFNAR−/− (BALB/c, C57BL/6) and AG129 mice, IFNAR−/−BALB/c exhibited the most severe symptoms: (1) highest weight loss and clinical scores; (2) peak viremia (5.44 log10 RNA copies/mL, day 4); (3) significant organ damage (liver/brain ...

Multimorbidity and animal models

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Multimorbidity, defined as the coexistence of ≥2 chronic conditions, is associated with aging, genetics, and environmental factors. Animal models in multimorbidity research span three tiers: simple organisms for initial screening → rodents for mechanistic analysis → large mammals for clinical prediction.

Development of an in situ small intestinal injection technique for targeted macromolecule delivery and in vivo functional studies in mice

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study developed a minimally invasive, in situ small intestinal injection technique for mice, enabling targeted delivery of bioactive molecules while bypassing gastric degradation. Validation using functional assays and single‐cell RNA sequencing reveals high‐mobility group box 1–mediated epithelial responses, offering a translational tool for gut ...

Engineering Tertiary Lymphoid Structures: Nanomedicine, Bioengineering, and Biomaterials for Precision Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This review explains how biomaterials and nanoparticles can be used to induce or modulate tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs), which are ectopic immune hubs that form in nonlymphoid tissues during chronic disease and cancer. By comparing different methods, the article highlights design principles for modeling TLSs or recapitulating specific TLS ...

Chicken Pulmonary MicroRNAs Targeting the PB2 (Segment 1) of Avian Influenza Virus

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The PB2 segment of H5N1 is essential for replication and host adaptation. We screened 200 miRNAs and identified five (gga‐miR‐17‐3p, gga‐miR‐29a‐5p, gga‐miR‐1718, gga‐miR‐16c‐5p, and gga‐miR‐1744‐5p) using thermodynamic stability of heteroduplex, seed sequence complementarity, conservation, and accessibility, offering insights into host antiviral ...

The Role of miRNAs in Chicken Immune Regulation and Prospects for Disease‐Resistant Breeding

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
A schematic workflow illustrating the screening of disease‐resistant miRNAs and the generation of miRNA‐based disease‐resistant chickens via PGC‐mediated germline genome editing. ABSTRACT MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are emerging as pivotal regulators of the immune system, playing a decisive role in shaping disease resistance in chicken.
