A Systematic Review of Cases of Meningitis in the Absence of Cerebrospinal Fluid Pleocytosis on Lumbar Puncture [PDF]

, 2019
Background: Definitive diagnosis of meningitis is made by analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) culture or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) obtained from a lumbar puncture (LP), which may take days.

CD3ɛ Nanobody‐Engineered Extracellular Vesicles Driving In Vivo Generation of TCE‐secreting CAR‐Ts for Solid Tumor Therapy With Memory Response and Minimal Immunogenicity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
HEK‐293T‐derived CD3ε Nb‐engineered EVs to generate dual‐targeting CAR‐T cells directly in vivo. These EVs selectively deliver CAR.BiTE transgenes into T cells and reprogramed to HLA‐G/PD‐L1‐targeting effector cells with enhanced memory and persistence.

First reported case of vertebral osteomyelitis due to Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae

IDCases, 2018
We describe a case of acute vertebral osteomyelitis with associated prevertebral abscess due to Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae in an immunocompetent adult with recent known traumatic inoculation from the barb of a fish.

Mitophagy and Ubiquitination Coordinate Context‐Specific Mitochondrial Quality Control and EMT/MET Plasticity to Drive Cancer Cell Invasion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Metastatic invasion emerges when tumor‐intrinsic programs and microenvironmental forces converge on mitochondrial quality control. A context‐stratified framework links mtROS, mtDNA integrity, mechanics and nutrient/oxygen cues to fission–fusion remodeling, mtUPR and mitophagy.

Neonatal umbilical cord blood transplantation halts skeletal disease progression in the murine model of MPS-I [PDF]

, 2017
Umbilical cord blood (UCB) is a promising source of stem cells to use in early haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) approaches for several genetic diseases that can be diagnosed at birth.

ZBTB21 Is a Dual Suppressor of Pyroptosis and MHC‐I Antigen Presentation That Promotes Tumor Immune Evasion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ZBTB21 is a transcription factor that epigenetically suppresses pyroptosis and MHC‐I antigen presentation, enabling tumor immune evasion. Genetic ablation of ZBTB21 activates pyroptotic cell death and enhances antigen presentation, recruiting CD8+ T cells to overcome immune checkpoint blockade resistance.

Synergistic Activation of Immunogenic Cell Death and the cGAS–STING Pathway by Engineered Zinc/Manganese‐Based Metal–Organic Framework Nanoplatforms for Colon Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A zinc/manganese (Zn/Mn)‐based metal‐organic framework (MOF) loaded with the STING agonist c‐di‐AMP diammonium (denoted AMP@Zn/Mn‐MOF) was developed to synergistically activate the cGAS‐STING pathway and induce immunogenic cell death. This nanoplatform reprograms the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, significantly enhancing anti‐PD‐L1 ...

Optic Neuritis in an Adult Patient with Chickenpox

Case Reports in Ophthalmological Medicine, 2012
Central nervous system involvement in a patient with primary infection with Varicella zoster virus is rare, especially in the immunocompetent adult. In particular, isolated optic neuritis has been described in a small number of cases. The authors present
