Endogenous Engineering Reprograms Extracellular Vesicles for Enhanced Therapeutic Function

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review explains how Extracellular vesicles‐producing cells can be endogenously engineered to load therapeutic proteins and nucleic acids. We summarize physiological and genetic strategies that harness native sorting pathways for selective cargo loading.

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Latent Tuberculosis Infection (LTBI) at Madura Boarding School as a High-Risk Congregate Setting

Juxta: Jurnal Ilmiah Mahasiswa Kedokteran Universitas Airlangga
Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), is a highly contagious airborne disease. High-risk environments with frequent close interactions contribute to the spread of TB.

Bilateral SERS‐Microneedle Patch for Co‐Diagnosis of Diabetes Mellitus and Tuberculosis Comorbidity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Our study introduced a U@mP@Au‐mediated bilateral SERS‐microneedle patch for analyzing glucose levels from ISF and sensitively detecting TB biomarkers from sputum, respectively. This integrated dual‐analyte detecting platform can be used for co‐diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM) and tuberculosis (TB) comorbidity, which was demonstrated in ex vivo ...

Phenotypic profiling of pristane‐induced mimicking human systemic lupus erythematosus in Macaca fascicularis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Pristane (5 mL/kg) induced a robust systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)‐like phenotype in Macaca fascicularis, marked by elevated antinuclear antibody (ANA) levels and systemic clinical, hematological, and biochemical changes. This model closely reflects human SLE and provides a translational platform for disease studies and therapeutic evaluation ...

Association between hematological inflammatory markers and latent TB infection: insights from NHANES 2011–2012 and transcriptomic data

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
BackgroundLatent tuberculosis infection affects about one-quarter of the global population and can progress to active tuberculosis. Hematological inflammatory markers, such as the systemic immune-inflammation index, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio ...

From Latent Tuberculosis Infection to Tuberculosis. News in Diagnosticsb (QuantiFERON-Plus) [PDF]

Polish Journal of Microbiology, 2017
It is estimated that one third of the world’s population have latent tuberculosis infection and that this is a significant reservoir for future tuberculosis cases. Most cases occur within two years following initial infection. The identification of

Substrate Characterization of Mycobacterial Kinase PknG Revealing PknG‐KARS‐MAPK Phosphorylation Signaling Axis in Host

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
This study employed multi‐omics approaches to investigate the regulatory mechanism of Mycobacterium PknG on host cell processes. We found that host lysine‐tRNA ligase (KARS) is a potential substrate of PknG; and PknG can regulate the immune response by catalyzing the phosphorylation of KARS at T592 and T595 sites, affecting the phosphorylation level in

Tuberculosis State Is Associated with Expression of Toll-Like Receptor 2 in Sputum Macrophages

mSphere, 2017
During tuberculosis, macrophages are critical for both pathogen survival and host immune activation. Since expression of particular cell surface markers reflects cell function, we used flow cytometry to measure the abundance of surface markers associated

Multi‐omics biomarkers for intestinal infection and inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease: Current evidence, translational challenges, and diagnostic opportunities

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Prospective multi‐site cohorts, multi‐omics profiling, and computational analysis may help identify biomarker patterns across clinical settings in IBD and superimposed infections. With further mechanistic and clinical validation, these signals could support the development of practical multi‐analyte tools for more precise diagnosis and management ...
