A Prussian Blue Nanozyme‐Adjuvanted Vaccine Presenting Phosphocholine Antigens for Induction of Immunotolerance in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
This study developed a novel nano‐vaccine (Ferritin‐PC@PBNZs) comprising a ferritin‐based scaffold for the multivalent display of phosphorylcholine (PC) antigens, integrated with Prussian blue nanozymes (PBNZs) as a potent adjuvant. By leveraging the ferritin carrier for high‐density and ordered antigen display, the nano‐vaccine significantly augments ...

Faster growth with shorter antigens can explain a VSG hierarchy during African trypanosome infections:a feint attack by parasites [PDF]

, 2018
The parasitic African trypanosome, Trypanosoma brucei, evades the adaptive host immune response by a process of antigenic variation that involves the clonal switching of variant surface glycoproteins (VSGs).

Antigenic enzymes of Schistosoma mansoni: possible use for immunodiagnosis

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1987
Different enzymes of Schistosoma mansoni are recognized by IgG antibodies present in the sera of infected human patients. The antigenicity of these enzymes suggests their possible use in immunodiagnostic assays that would take advantage of their ...

Primary Mediastinal Pleural Hydatid Cyst Mimicking Tuberculous Pleuritis: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Hydatid disease, caused by various Echinococcus species, is endemic in developing countries and most commonly affects the liver and lungs. Approximately 7.4% of cases involve intrathoracic extrapulmonary locations, with pleural involvement usually resulting from rupture of adjacent hepatic or pulmonary cysts.

Response of bone turnover markers to raloxifene treatment in postmenopausal women with osteopenia. [PDF]

, 2016
Introduction: The change in bone turnover markers (BTM) in response to osteoporosis therapy can be assessed by a decrease beyond the least significant change (LSC) or below the mean of the reference interval (RI). We compared the performance of these two

ZNF334 truncation mutation drives cold-induced autoinflammation

EMBO Molecular Medicine
The role of zinc finger protein 334 (ZNF334) in immunological processes remains unknown. We identified a ZNF334 truncation mutation (p.Thr399fs) in a rare case of late-onset cold-induced autoinflammatory disease with elevated TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and ...
