Stress and cancer: The mechanisms of immune dysregulation and management
Advances in the understanding of psychoneuroimmunology in the past decade have emphasized the notion that stress and cancer are interlinked closely.

Lentivirus-induced immune dysregulation [PDF]
FIV/HIV infections are associated with an early robust humoral and cellular anti-viral immune response followed by a progressive immune suppression that eventually results in AIDS. Several mechanisms responsible for this immune dysfunction have been proposed including cytokine dysregulation, immunologic anergy and apoptosis, and inappropriate ...

Microvascular significance of TGF-β axis activation in COVID-19
As 2023 approaches, the COVID-19 pandemic has killed millions. While vaccines have been a crucial intervention, only a few effective medications exist for prevention and treatment of COVID-19 in breakthrough cases or in unvaccinated or immunocompromised ...

A nonconservative kinetic model under the action of an external force field for modeling the medical treatment of autoimmune response [PDF]
In this paper, we develop a new nonconservative kinetic framework to be applied for the study of immune system dysregulation. From the modeling viewpoint, the new kinetic model regards a system, composed of stochastically interacting agents, under the action of an eternal force field.

Fresh Insights into Disease Etiology and the Role of Microbial Pathogens. [PDF]
Pathogens have been implicated in the initiation and/or promotion of systemic sclerosis (scleroderma, SSc); however, no evidence was found to substantiate the direct contribution to this disease in past years.

Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and Maternal Immune Dysregulation: What We Know So Far
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is an obstetric complication that affects approximately 5–10% of all pregnancies worldwide. GDM is defined as any degree of glucose intolerance with onset or first recognition during pregnancy, and is characterized by ...

Genetics of Immune Dysregulation and Cancer Predisposition: Two Sides of the Same Coin
Approximately 10% of cancers have a hereditary predisposition. However, no genetic diagnosis is available in 60%-80% of familial cancers. In some of these families, immune dysregulation-mediated disease is frequent.

Dysregulation of Systemic Immunity in Aging and Dementia [PDF]
Neuroinflammation and the tissue-resident innate immune cells, the microglia, respond and contribute to neurodegenerative pathology. Although microglia have been the focus of work linking neuroinflammation and associated dementias like Alzheimer’s Disease, the inflammatory milieu of brain is a conglomerate of cross-talk amongst microglia, systemic ...

miRNA contributions to pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis inferred from GWAS. [PDF]
ObjectiveOnset of multiple sclerosis (MS) occurs in childhood for approximately 5% of cases (pediatric MS, or ped-MS). Epigenetic influences are strongly implicated in MS pathogenesis in adults, including the contribution from microRNAs (miRNAs), small ...
