The role of PAF in immunopathology: From immediate hypersensitivity reactions to fungal defense
Abstract Platelet‐activating factor (PAF, 1‐alkyl‐2‐acetyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phosphorylcholine) was discovered when the mechanisms involved in the deposition of immune complex in tissues were being scrutinized in the experimental model of rabbit serum sickness.

An extension of a theorem of Zermelo [PDF]
We show that if (M,E,E') satisfies the first order Zermelo-Fraenkel axioms of set theory when the membership relation is E and also when the membership relation is E', and in both cases the formulas are allowed to contain both E and E', then (M,E) and (M,E') are isomorphic, and the isomorphism is definable in (M,E,E').

Exosomes and their roles in the chemoresistance of pancreatic cancer
Despite the development of multiple promising chemotherapeutic agents as recommended first‐line treatment for PC, the therapeutic efficacy is largely limited by unwanted drug resistance.Exploring the relation between exosomes and chemoresistance may be conducive to understanding molecular mechanisms and taking effective measures to reduce the ...

Microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 in rheumatic diseases
Microsomal prostaglandin E synthase-1 (mPGES-1) is a well recognized target for the development of novel anti-inflammatory drugs that can reduce symptoms of inflammation in rheumatic diseases and other inflammatory conditions. In this review, we focus on

Tumor-Induced T Cell Polarization by Schwann Cells
Nerve-cancer crosstalk resulting in either tumor neurogenesis or intratumoral neurodegeneration is critically controlled by Schwann cells, the principal glial cells of the peripheral nervous system.

Metabolism of prostaglandins E, A, and C in serum
Three prostaglandin-metabolizing enzymes were detected in human serum. One enzyme was a dehydrase that converted prostaglandin E to prostaglandin A, the second was a prostaglandin A isomerase that converted prostaglandin A to prostaglandin C and the third was a prostaglandin C isomerase that converted prostaglandin C to prostaglandin B.

Microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase-1 (mPGES-1), an inducible enzyme that converts prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) to prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), plays an important role in a variety of diseases.

Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...
