Thymus and Leishmania at the Crossroads: Autoimmunity and Cancer
Conceptual ‘Crossroads Model’ linking Leishmania, thymic infection and immune dysregulation: an integrative model is proposed in which Leishmania infection disrupts thymic architecture and stromal–thymocyte interactions. These alterations converge to promote defective tolerance, increased autoimmune risk and a microenvironment permissive to malignant ...

ABSTRACT Objectives Recent clinical studies have suggested that glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor (GLP‐1R) agonists may be effective therapies to treat or reduce the risk of developing secondary lymphedema. In this study, we aimed to (1) determine if GLP‐1Rs are present in the lymphatic vasculature and characterize their expression, and (2) assess the ...

T Cell Exhaustion in Cancer Immunotherapy: Heterogeneity, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Opportunities
T cell exhaustion limits immunotherapy efficacy. This article delineates its progression from stem‐like to terminally exhausted states, governed by persistent antigen, transcription factors, epigenetics, and metabolism. It maps the exhaustion landscape in the TME and proposes integrated reversal strategies, providing a translational roadmap to overcome

Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome is a common manifestation in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients infected with tuberculosis (TB). One of the unusual complications of this condition is the development of psoas abscess.

ABSTRACT Intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury presents a biphasic pathology: an acute oxidative‐inflammatory phase leading to organ failure, and a recovery phase marked by mucosal dysfunction and bacterial translocation. The developed MPB@TA‐Cu‐Ma nanocomposite functions as a dual‐phase therapeutic platform with significant efficacy. It rapidly

We report a rational design strategy for STING antagonists by dual covalent targeting of Cys292/309 in its C‐terminal domain, directly preventing functional oligomerization. Through covalent warhead repurposing, we identified P005091 and revealed its unique dual‐cysteine mechanism.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the mechanism of ophiopogonin D (OD) in treating primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) through integrated analysis of gut microbiota and metabolomics. Non‐obese diabetic/LtJ mice, a well‐established pSS model, were used as the model group and treated with OD or hydroxychloroquine.

Fecal microbiota transplantation from patients with social anxiety disorder (SAD) into mice induces anxiety‐like behaviors, accompanied by gut microbiota alterations (increased Bacteroidota, decreased butyrate producers), downregulation of microbial metabolic pathways, and reduced plasma tryptophan, suggesting a causal role of gut dysbiosis in SAD ...

The MALAT1/miR‐30b‐5p/BAFF axis is activated in monocytes during NMOSD onset and relapse. The MALAT1/miR‐30b‐5p/BAFF axis is activated in monocytes, thereby facilitating the release of BAFF and inflammatory cytokines (including IL‐1, IL‐6, IL‐8, and TNF‐α).

Shifting From Systemic to Precision‐Targeted Complement Therapies: Opportunities and Hurdles
Complement therapeutics have expanded considerably, but systemic inhibitors remain limited by infection risks, breakthrough events, and loss of physiological functions. Emerging targeted approaches aim for organ‐, tissue‐, or cell‐specific modulation of complement activity, potentially offering greater precision while reducing treatment burden and ...
