Abstract Sarcopenia and frailty are complex geriatric syndromes influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent studies suggest that specific genetic variants, DNA methylation patterns and shortened telomeres are associated with age‐related diseases and might contribute to the development of both sarcopenia and frailty. In this

Innate immune cells (IICs) are not only as first‐line defenders or simple auxiliaries to adaptive immunity, but also as decisive regulators of non‐small cell lung cancer progression and treatment outcomes. ABSTRACT As a leading cause of cancer‐related morbidity and mortality worldwide, non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is profoundly influenced by ...

Gamma Delta T Cells in Shrimp Allergy Express a Unique Cytotoxic Cytokine Profile
ABSTRACT Shellfish allergy is the most common food allergy in adults and the third most common in children. γδ T cells have been identified as playing a critical role in antigen tolerance in allergic diseases in mouse models. In humans, γδ T cells may play a regulatory role in peanut immunotherapy, and their role in shrimp allergy remains unclear.

ABSTRACT Organotin (IV) compounds are known to induce apoptosis via the intrinsic mitochondrial pathway, which is a key mechanism of effective anticancer therapy. Their ability to selectively promote apoptotic cell death highlights their potential as chemotherapeutic agents. In this study, the in vitro effects of two triorganotin compounds, tributyltin

Discovery of minor histocompatibility antigens as targets for immunotherapy [PDF]
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) can be a curative treatment for hematological malignancies. However, the desired anti-tumor or Graft-versus-Leukemia (GvL) effect is often accompanied by undesired side effects, a ...

Macrophage: Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets
Macrophages are sentinel innate immune cells that arise from embryonic precursors and bone marrow monocytes, displaying a functional continuum that transcends the classical M1 (pro‐inflammatory)/M2 (anti‐inflammatory) dichotomy. Under homeostatic conditions, balanced M1/M2 polarization preserves tissue integrity by coordinating immune surveillance ...

New strategies in identification and quantification of minor histocompatibility antigens [PDF]
The involvement of Minor histocompatibility antigens (MiHA) in the graft versus tumor is described about three decades ago. Nowadays, there are many evidences that, after HLA-matched allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) MiHA specific

Post‐Translational Isoaspartate Promotes Amyloid Formation in β2‐Microglobulin
Chemical synthesis of five β2‐microglobulin (β2m) variants reveals the structural impact of Asn deamidation. By introducing Asp or isoAsp at susceptible Asn‐Gly sequences, we demonstrate that isoAsp17 formation specifically accelerates amyloid fibril formation, highlighting its potential contribution to dialysis‐related amyloidosis.

Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.
