Serum Soluble Mediator Signatures of Lupus Nephritis: Histologic Features and Response to Treatment
Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) management remains challenging, and novel noninvasive biomarkers are needed. This study quantified serum soluble mediators in the Accelerating Medicines Partnership (AMP) LN cohort to identify biomarkers of histologic features and treatment response.

Interference of the T cell and antigen-presenting cell costimulatory pathway using CTLA4-Ig (abatacept) prevents Staphylococcal enterotoxin B pathology [PDF]
Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) is a bacterial superantigen that binds the receptors in the APC/T cell synapse and causes increased proliferation of T cells and a cytokine storm syndrome in vivo.

Proinflammatory cytokines driving cardiotoxicity in COVID-19
Abstract Aims Cardiac involvement is common in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 and correlates with an adverse disease trajectory. While cardiac injury has been attributed to direct viral cytotoxicity, serum-induced cardiotoxicity secondary to serological hyperinflammation constitutes a potentially

The Inflammatory Response in Human Keratinocytes Exposed to Cinnamaldehyde Is Regulated by Nrf2
Keratinocytes (KC) play a crucial role in epidermal barrier function, notably through their metabolic activity and the detection of danger signals. Chemical sensitizers are known to activate the transcription factor nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2 ...
