Memory-Like NK Cells: Remembering a Previous Activation by Cytokines and NK Cell Receptors
Natural Killer (NK) cells are cytotoxic innate lymphoid cells serving at the front line against infection and cancer. In inflammatory microenvironments, multiple soluble and contact-dependent signals modulate NK cell responsiveness.

ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) neuroblastoma, FOXR2‐activated, is a recently recognized entity in the WHO CNS5 classification, defined by activation of the FOXR2 transcription factor and unique histopathological features. This review synthesizes available literature and pooled clinical data, providing insight into demographics ...

ABSTRACT Background Cerebellar ataxia after pediatric brain tumor treatment can cause persistent gait, balance, and speech impairment, yet no established rehabilitation strategy exists. Somato‐cognitive coordination therapy (SCCT) is a virtual reality–guided intervention designed to promote sensorimotor integration through visually constrained reaching

Role of Costimulation in the Induction of the IL-12/IL-12 Receptor Pathway and the Development of Autoimmunity [PDF]
Abstract Costimulation mediated by the interactions of the B7 Ags (CD80/CD86) on APC with CD28 on the responding T cell regulates the magnitude of the immune response and may influence Th1/Th2 development. The IL-12Rβ2 subunit plays a critical role in maintaining IL-12 responsiveness and controlling Th1 lineage commitment.

ABSTRACT Background Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer, with an overall survival now surpassing 90% in developed countries. However, treatments are not without adverse effects. In this study, we apply the severe toxicity‐free survival (STFS) framework to determine the prevalence of 21 physician‐defined severe ...

IL-12 receptor regulation in IL-12-deficient BALB / c and C57BL / 6 mice [PDF]
Immunization with protein antigen in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) induces Th1 cells in BALB/c and C57BL/6 (B6) mice. Pretreatment with the same protein in soluble form induces Th2 cells in BALB/c but not in B6 mice and inhibits Th1 cell development in both.

ABSTRACT Background Type 1 plasminogen deficiency (PLGD‐1) is an ultra‐rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by variants in the PLG gene and affects approximately 1.6 individuals per million. The condition is characterized by decreased plasminogen levels and impaired function, resulting in fibrin‐rich lesions on mucous membranes throughout the body.
