Mucosal‐associated invariant T cells in rheumatic diseases.
Mucosal‐associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate‐like T cells defined by their semi‐invariant T cell receptor (TCR) and restriction by the MHC class I‐related molecule (MR1). These cells are primarily activated by microbial‐derived metabolites presented by MR1 or by cytokines. Upon activation, MAIT cells rapidly produce pro‐inflammatory cytokines,

Loss of TRIM21 drives UVB‐induced systemic inflammation by regulating DNA‐sensing pathways
Background Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) experience photosensitivity, with exposure to ultraviolet light B (UVB) driving lupus flares and triggering symptoms like joint pain, fatigue, and cutaneous lesions. Although the mechanism(s) linking UVB exposure to systemic effects are unclear, type I interferons (IFNs) are known to play a ...

Approaches to repurposing reverse transcriptase antivirals in cancer
This review highlights the role of reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibition in cellular regulation associated with non‐terminal repeat retrotransposons and endogenous retroviruses. Based on their pleiotropic characteristics, RT inhibitors (RTIs) are discussed as potential anticancer agents.

The contribution of extracellular RNA and its derived biomaterials in disease management
The implications of exRNA's biological function and the structural uniqueness of RNA help establish a close connection between RNA, material, and modern medicine. Abstract The RNA found in the circular system is known as extracellular RNA (exRNA). This kind of RNA has been found to play a biological role similar to that of a messenger. They can be used

Engineering antibodies with cancer‐associated binding sites
This review describes antibodies that perform direct/indirect roles in cancer treatment by binding to effective targets and discusses how antibodies kill tumors and modulate tumor microenvironment through these targets. The classification of expression systems for antibody production is summarized to guide appropriate selection based on different ...
