Harnessing Natural Compounds in Psoriasis: Targeting Cellular Pathways for Effective Therapy

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Natural compounds act on key cellular pathways in psoriasis by suppressing keratinocyte hyperproliferation, modulating Th17/IL‐17‐mediated immune responses, and reducing oxidative stress. These multi‐target effects highlight their potential as safer adjunctive therapies alongside conventional treatments.

Natural Killer T Cells in Cancer Immunotherapy

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Natural killer T (NKT) cells are specialized CD1d-restricted T cells that recognize lipid antigens. Following stimulation, NKT cells lead to downstream activation of both innate and adaptive immune cells in the tumor microenvironment.

Identification of novel self lipids, GlcCer and GalCer, as CD1d-restricted ligands for type II NKT cells

, 2011
NKT cells make up a potent immunomodulating subset of T lymphocytes that recognizes self-lipids presented by CD1d molecules. So far, the identity of most self-lipids presented by CD1d underlying the autoreactivity of NKT cells are unknown. In this study,

immunoHuMiX: A personalizable gut‐on‐chip model for unraveling human microbiome–immune interactions

VIEW, EarlyView.
The study introduces a personalized gut model that brings together human immune cells and intestinal cells to better mimic how the body interacts with microbes. This system successfully maintained both human cells and a 17‐strain probiotic community, showing consistent immune responses across different donors.

Comparative gene expression analysis of NKT cell subpopulations

, 2006
Natural killer T (NKT) cells are a lymphocyte lineage, which has diverse immune regulatory activities in many disease settings. Most previous studies have investigated the functions of this family of cells as a single entity, but more recent evidence ...

Voice of Asia: Provision of Patient‐Centered Care in Oral Cavity Cancer: A Qualitative Study With Patients, Caregivers, and Healthcare Professionals in Five Asia‐Pacific Regions

Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
The study identified key barriers to optimal patient‐centered care, including delayed diagnosis due to awareness and stigma‐related barriers among patients and caregivers, and opportunities to enhance multidisciplinary coordination. Resource limitations impacted nursing and psychosocial support, while access to support care varied across regions.

Novel Bispecific Engagers Targeting the CεmX Domain of mIgE‐Expressing Cells

Allergy, EarlyView.
We developed bispecific TCE & NKCE targeting the CεmX domain of mIgE to eliminate IgE‐producing cells. Both constructs demonstrated potent, specific, dose‐dependent cytotoxicity and selective immune activation in vitro. These results highlight their promise as off‐the‐shelf, potentially curative therapeutics for IgE‐associated allergic diseases ...

The Testicular Cancer Consortium (TECAC): Filling Knowledge Gaps in the Genetic Etiology of Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The Testicular Cancer Consortium (TECAC) was established in 2012 and is comprised of researchers from over 25 centers in Europe and North America. TECAC's overarching goal is to investigate the genetic susceptibility of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) to better understand their biology, impact prevention strategies, and inform ...

Promotion of B cell responses by cognate NKT cells help.

, 2014
B cells recognize, through their B cell receptor (BCR), capsular polysaccharide Ags associated with lipids (e.g., formulated particles). BCR crosslinking leads to endocytosis and transport of Ags to endosomal compartment.

T Cell Microenvironmental Impacts and Therapeutic Opportunities: Application to Human Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the leading malignancy in adolescent and young adult males, yet the immunological and cellular mechanisms governing their tumor microenvironment (TME) remain poorly understood. Here, we present a comprehensive review of TGCT pathobiology with a focus on the immune landscape, particularly the role of tumor‐
