Activation of the Lectin Pathway Drives Persistent Complement Dysregulation in Long COVID
The complement cascade, a series of blood proteins that assists in the recognition and neutralisation of pathogens, either independently or in conjunction with antibodies, is persistently activated in patients with long COVID. We found that blood plasma samples from patients with long COVID contained elevated concentrations of the mannan‐binding lectin‐

ABSTRACT Background Inflammation plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Linderalactone (LNL), as a natural sesquiterpene lactone, has been discovered to have anti‐inflammatory activation. However, the effects of linderalactone on diabetes‐associated renal damage remain unclear.

Hair follicle stem cell fate supports distinct clinical endotypes in hidradenitis suppurativa
Hair follicles (HFs) were extracted from skin biopsies. From these, original sequencing data were obtained and integrated with two independent studies to build a HF single‐cell transcriptomic atlas. It enabled delineating the fate of HF stem cells.

Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles in the Pathogenesis and Treatment of Liver Diseases
Liver diseases are a major global health challenge, with current treatments inadequate. This review highlights the role of bacterial extracellular vesicles in liver inflammation, fibrosis, and metabolism. We also explore these from commensals and probiotics, their protective effects, and discuss research challenges and future therapeutic potential ...
