Methotrexate suppresses psoriatic skin inflammation by inhibiting muropeptide transporter SLC46A2 activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Cytosolic innate immune sensing is critical for protecting barrier tissues. NOD1 and NOD2 are cytosolic sensors of small peptidoglycan fragments (muropeptides) derived from the bacterial cell wall.

Neuropsychological and Educational Outcomes in Shwachman–Diamond Syndrome—A Report From the North American Shwachman–Diamond Syndrome Registry

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Shwachman–Diamond syndrome (SDS) is a rare autosomal recessive ribosomopathy characterized by bone marrow failure and multisystem involvement, with emerging evidence of associated neurocognitive impairment. Methods We conducted a retrospective study of 240 individuals with biallelic Shwachman–Bodian–Diamond syndrome (SBDS) mutations

Immune Dysregulation in Immune Thrombocytopenia [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Hematology, 2013
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a bleeding disorder characterized by low platelet counts due to decreased platelet production as well as increased platelet destruction by autoimmune mechanisms. A shift toward Th1 and possibly Th17 cells together with impaired regulatory compartment, including T-regulatory (Tregs) and B-regulatory (Bregs) cells, have ...

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...
