Aging impairs vaccine efficacy through gut microbiota dysbiosis and mTOR hyperactivation, which together drive inflammaging and weaken immune memory. This review highlights the bidirectional microbiota–mTOR axis and proposes that combining mTOR inhibitors with microbiota modulation offers a promising strategy to enhance vaccine responses in older ...

Allergic Sensitization to Inhalant Allergens in the Upper Respiratory Tract—the B Cell Side
ABSTRACT Allergic diseases are on the rise worldwide, driven by respiratory epithelial barrier dysfunction that promotes sensitization to inhalant allergens such as pollen, dust mites, pet dander, and fungal spores. These antigens trigger IgE‐mediated immune responses that lead to diseases such as allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma.

Integrative Genomics Identifies Candidate Genes Underlying Trypanotolerance in Hybrid African Cattle
ABSTRACT Integrative genomics combines data from different omics sources to link genotypes and phenotypes with the aim of unravelling biological networks and pathways that undergird complex traits, particularly with respect to disease. In this respect, integrative genomics, leveraging population and functional genomic data, can be employed to ...

ABSTRACT Captive breeding can be a key component of species conservation strategies, but also exposes these rare species to novel environments including the pathogen landscape. The critically endangered white‐winged wood duck (WWWD) Asarcornis scutulata has experienced substantial population declines, local extirpations and fragmentation of its former ...

Don't Cut the Cord: Why Umbilical Cord Blood Still Deserves a Place in Transplantation
ABSTRACT The use of umbilical cord blood (UCB) as a stem cell source in haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) has greatly declined in recent years. It has largely been replaced by mismatched unrelated and family donors, facilitated by advances in transplant technologies, including post‐transplant cyclophosphamide to prevent graft‐versus‐host ...

Induction of Clinical Operational Tolerance Through Immunosuppression Minimization: Less Is More?
ABSTRACT The goal of achieving clinical operational tolerance in liver transplantation has sparked significant interest, driven by the desire to mitigate the long‐term adverse effects of immunosuppression. Advances in understanding the immunological mechanisms underpinning operational tolerance in liver transplantation have highlighted the central role

Abstract Background and Objectives Adequate representation of donors from diverse ancestral populations in blood, stem cell and organ transplantation is critical to ensuring equitable access to these lifesaving therapies. Because of population‐level differences in genetic markers, patients from racialized groups may have unique transfusion and ...
