Longitudinal changes in plasma biomarkers of immune activation, neuronal inflammation and injury in persons with HIV initiating ART

open access: yesHIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Data on changes in biomarkers of brain health, and their associations with cognitive function in adults commencing either dual‐ or triple‐antiretroviral therapy (ART) are sparse. Methods Plasma biomarkers (neurofilament light [NfL], glial fibrillary acidic protein [GFAP], sCD14, CXCL10, neopterin and IL‐6) were measured at baseline ...

Immune Evasion of Helicobacter pylori and Extra‐Gastric Cancer Risk

open access: yesJournal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a group 1 gastric carcinogen that plays a significant role in extra‐gastric digestive system cancers. H. pylori disrupts host cell homeostasis through expression of virulence factors leading to immune evasion as well as persistent gastric mucosal colonization. H. pylori infection has been shown to play a role
