Molecular Signatures of Peripheral and Central Dental Pulp Subpopulations in Response to Streptococcus mutans: A Bulk RNA‐Seq Analysis

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The dental pulp is an immunologically active tissue that responds dynamically to cariogenic challenge. Peripheral pulp cells adjacent to dentine encounter bacterial stimuli earlier than cells located in the central pulp. To investigate signalling and immune interactions, this study profiled the transcriptomes of dentine‐adherent cells ...

IL‐2 silencing enables Tfh cell expansion during vaccination but is redundant for antibody production

Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
Sustained IL‐2 production delays T follicular helper cell differentiation and germinal center formation but does not alter final antibody titers or antigen‐specific humoral immunity after vaccination. Created in BioRender. Burton, A. (2026) https://BioRender.com/paggz41 Abstract Vaccines stimulate protective humoral immunity by coordinating lymphocyte ...

NUAK1 activates STAT5/GLI1/SOX2 signaling to enhance cancer cell expansion and drives chemoresistance in gastric cancer

Cell Reports
Summary: The gene encoding the NUAK family kinase 1 (NUAK1) is frequently amplified and its expression is upregulated, activating oncogenic signaling in various cancers. However, little is known about its role in gastric cancer (GC).

Innate Immune Activation Is a Strong Suppressor of CCL22 and Impedes Regulatory T Cell–Dendritic Cell Interaction

Immunology, EarlyView.
During homeostasis, CCL22 is secreted by dendritic cells (DC), which mediate contacts between regulatory T cells (Treg) and DC to maintain immune balance. Activation of innate immunity via microbes or pattern recognition receptor (PRR) agonists induces the secretion of several soluble factors (e.g., type I and II interferons, IL‐10), which mediate ...

Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?

Immunology, EarlyView.
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as

Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription (STAT) Proteins Regulate Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T (MAIT) Cell Function

Immunology, EarlyView.
Integrated transcriptomic, proteomic and flow cytometry analyses reveal that STAT1 negatively regulates MAIT cell effector and glycolytic functions, while STAT3, STAT5 and HIF1α act as positive modulators. Targeting these pathways may offer new strategies to restore MAIT cell function in immune dysregulation and cancer.

Application and Challenges of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell Therapy in Systemic Rheumatic Diseases and Autoimmune Disorders

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
CAR‐T cell therapy in systemic rheumatic diseases and autoimmune disorders. (This figure was created using BioRender.com.) ABSTRACT Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR‐T) cell therapy, originally developed for hematologic malignancies, has emerged as a transformative candidate for systemic rheumatic diseases and autoimmune disorders (AIDs).

Regulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex: Dancing to different drums in cancer

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 6, Page 1464-1480, 15 March 2026.
Abstract Mechanisms governing the regulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) are markedly modified in cancer cells compared to normal cells. PDC activity in normal cells is controlled by the reversible phosphorylation of three serine residues by dedicated kinases and phosphatases.

SIRT5–RAC2 Axis Drives Monocyte‐to‐Macrophage Differentiation to Promote Inflammatory Injury in Premature Ovarian Insufficiency

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 14, 9 March 2026.
SIRT5 desuccinylates and stabilizes RAC2, activating CSF1R‐dependent signaling to drive monocyte differentiation into M0 macrophages and their polarization toward pro‐inflammatory M1 phenotypes in CTX‐induced premature ovarian insufficiency. Inhibiting the SIRT5‐RAC2 axis attenuates inflammation, reduces granulosa cell apoptosis, and preserves ...

Treg Cells Modulate Neuroinflammation and Behavioral Deficits in Autism: Evidence From MR‐Based Genetic Analyses and Experimental Models

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, Volume 201, Issue 2, Page 127-143, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that is increasingly linked to immune dysfunction and neuroinflammation. Regulatory T cells (Tregs), which are crucial in maintaining immune homeostasis, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of ASD.
