Sirolimus for Extracranial Arteriovenous Malformations: A Scoping Review of the Evidence in Syndromic and Non‐Syndromic Cases

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare, high‐flow, vascular anomalies that can occur either sporadically or as part of a genetic syndrome. AVMs can progress with serious morbidity and even mortality if left unchecked. Sirolimus is an mTOR inhibitor that is effective in low‐flow vascular malformations; however, its role in AVMs is unclear.

CD4+ T-cell independent secondary immune responses to Pneumocystis pneumonia

Frontiers in Immunology, 2016
Pneumocystis pneumonia is a major cause of morbidity and mortality among immunocompromised patients, especially in the context of HIV/AIDS. In the murine model of Pneumocystis pneumonia, CD4+ T-cells are required for clearance of a primary infection of ...

Application of Microbial and Parasitology Techniques for Diagnosis in Laboratory Rodents

Current Protocols, Volume 6, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Pathogen diagnosis in rodents through effective health monitoring programs is essential for maintaining high welfare and standards in laboratory animal facilities. Although many animal facilities are increasingly adopting real‐time polymerase chain reaction testing of environmental or filter samples for pathogen detection, thereby reducing the

Pneumocystis Pneumonia During Medicamentous Treatment of Cushing’s Syndrome – A Description of Two Cases

Acta Medica, 2011
Only a few cases of pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) in Cushing’s syndrome have been published in the literature so far. In the majority of these patients, the pneumonia occurred after reduction of the hypercortisolism with medicamentous treatment. We report

From a novel pathogenic SAMD9L variant to cohort‐wide insights: Whole‐genome sequencing highlights somatic genetic rescue and phenotypic heterogeneity

British Journal of Haematology, Volume 209, Issue 1, Page 75-83, July 2026.
Summary Germline gain‐of‐function variants in sterile alpha motif domain–containing 9‐like (SAMD9L), located on chromosome 7q, cause a multisystem disorder characterized by bone marrow failure, immunodeficiency and variable neurological involvement. Disease evolution is frequently shaped by somatic genetic rescue (SGR), most commonly through monosomy 7,

Insights Into the Susceptibility of Fungal Infection and STAT3 Genetic Mutations

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is a key transcription factor that regulates a spectrum of genes and signalling pathways critical for the antifungal immune response. Mutations in the STAT3 gene confer susceptibility to severe and recurrent fungal infections, predominantly via disruption of interleukin‐17 (IL‐17 ...
