Deficiency and dysfunctional roles of natural killer T cells in patients with ARDS

Frontiers in Immunology
ObjectiveAcute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) presents a global health challenge, characterized by significant morbidity and mortality. However, the role of natural killer T (NKT) cells in human ARDS remains poorly understood. Therefore, this study

Increased Numbers of NK Cells, NKT-Like Cells, and NK Inhibitory Receptors in Peripheral Blood of Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Clinical and Developmental Immunology, 2013
T cells and B cells participate in the pathogenesis of COPD. Currently, NK cells and NKT cells have gained increasing attention. In the present study, 19 COPD patients and 12 healthy nonsmokers (HNS) were recruited, and their pulmonary function was ...

Comparison of Circulating NKT Cells Numbers in Multi Drug Resistant Tuberculosis Patients and Healthy Subjects Using Tuberculin Skin Test

Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ’Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Shahīd Ṣadūqī Yazd, 2009
Introduction: Natural killer T (NKT) cells are a subset of lymphocytes that express some NK cells properties. NKT cells have a regulatory role in immune responses. Little is known about the potential role of NKT cells in human infectious diseases.

Regulation of dendritic cell subsets by NKT cells

Comptes Rendus. Biologies, 2003
NKT cells expressing both invariant TCRs and NK cell receptors are an important regulatory cell subset active during initiation of innate immune responses. They are involved in a wide variety of immune responses, but the molecular details of their regulatory action are unknown. Transcriptional profiling has been used for analysis of NKT cell activation

Research progress on the role of inflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of epilepsy

Ibrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 44-58, Spring 2025.
In the central nervous system, activated immune cells lead to the overproduction of inflammatory mediators through the corresponding signal pathway. Under the stimulation of inflammatory factors, neuroinflammation ultimately occurs. Overexpression of inflammatory mediators and activated immunocytes plays an important role in the emergence and ...

Deterministic Fiber‐Optic Spectral Engineering Enables Three‐Color Multiplexed Two‐Photon Microscopy

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
A simulation‐guided spectral‐engineering framework maps the nonlinear parameter space of a fiber laser platform to identify balanced three‐band excitation states. The resulting 960, 1080, and 1175 nm femtosecond pulses deliver nJ‐level energies for low‐cross‐talk chromatically multiplexed two‐photon microscopy.

Multispectral Concentric Grafted Perfect Vector Vortex Beam

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Multispectral structured light offers powerful opportunities for increasing information capacity. A multispectral concentric grafted perfect vector vortex beam is proposed to engineer topological charges and polarization. A metasurface can graft different perfect vector vortex beams across concentric spatial regions and extend this concept to ...

Wavelength and Full‐Polarization Encrypted Orbital Angular Momentum Meta‐Holography

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
By multiplexing three independent degrees of freedom of light, a single‐layer geometric‐phase metasurface encrypts 24 distinct holographic images across 3 wavelengths, 12 pairs of orthogonal polarizations, and 4 OAM channels, taking advantage of axial chromatic dispersion to reconstruct the color images at the same plane. ABSTRACT Multiplexing multiple

Efficient and Tunable Narrowband Second‐Harmonic Generation by a Large‐Area Etchless Lithium Niobate Metasurface

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
An etchless lithium niobate (LN) metasurface with a slanted periodic TiO2 grating enables efficient and narrowband second‐harmonic generation (SHG) thanks to the light confinement in the LN film granted by quasi‐bound‐state‐in‐the‐continuum (q‐BIC) modes.

Immune dysregulation in the prostates of C57BL/6Aire−/− mice mirrors that seen in human benign prostatic hyperplasia

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the most common urologic disease in aging men, resulting in significant morbidity. The etiologies of BPH are unknown, though chronic prostatic inflammation is known to promote hyperplasia, fibrotic remodeling, and therapeutic resistance in BPH.
