Arrhythmias associated with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy—A clinical perspective
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed cancer therapy but are associated with a growing spectrum of cardiovascular immune‐related adverse events. Among these, arrhythmias represent a rare yet potentially life‐threatening complication. ICI‐induced arrhythmias encompass a wide clinical spectrum, including atrial arrhythmias, conduction ...

Emerging Paediatric Uses of Dupilumab Beyond Approvals
Dupilumab, through IL‐4Rα blockade, shows promising efficacy beyond approved indications in paediatric diseases driven by T2 inflammation. Emerging evidence—mainly from small studies—supports improvements in disease severity and quality of life, highlighting its potential as a targeted, steroid‐sparing therapy while underscoring the need for ...

Inflammatory Mediators Associated With Corticosteroid Responsiveness During Asthma Attacks
ABSTRACT Higher baseline sputum/serum eotaxin‐3 and serum IL‐5 levels were associated with greater FEV1 improvement following OCS during asthma attacks. Corticosteroid‐induced inflammatory modulation differed across T2 phenotypes during asthma attacks.

NK and T cells constitute two major, functionally distinct intestinal epithelial lymphocyte subsets in the chicken [PDF]
Non-mammalian NK cells have not been characterized in detail; however, their analysis is essential for the understanding of the NK cell receptor phylogeny.

Somatic variant profiling of a thymoma in Good syndrome
Good syndrome (GS) is a combined immunodeficiency that is associated with thymomas. The cause of the reduction in B-cells in patients with GS may be multifactorial and may include dysregulated T-cell responses.

Detection of Quiescent Radioresistant Epithelial Progenitors in the Adult Thymus
Thymic aging precedes that of other organs and is initiated by the gradual loss of thymic epithelial cells (TECs). Based on in vitro culture and transplantation assays, recent studies have reported on the presence of thymic epithelial progenitor cells ...

From hepatic to hematopoietic: LRH‐1's expanding cellular repertoire to the immune system
The nuclear receptor LRH‐1 is a well‐characterized regulator of endodermal tissue. Yet, increasing evidence indicates that LRH‐1, although expressed at low levels, is also a critical regulator of the hematopoietic system. LRH‐1 regulates the immune system by contributing to immune cell‐specific functions.

Epithelial reticular cells of the thymus and the regulatory T-lymphocytes
The article presents a review of the literature. The article presents the published data on the role of reticular epithelial cells in the formation of specific microenvironment in the cortex and medulla of thymic lobules.

Aire and Fezf2 Shape the Medullary Thymic Epithelial Cell Immunopeptidome for Central Tolerance
Central tolerance is shaped not merely by promiscuous gene expression in medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECs), but by the subset of self‐peptides ultimately presented on MHC class II molecules. We propose a multilayered framework in which AIRE/Aire and FEZF2/Fezf2, together with specialised differentiation programmes—including thymic mimetic‐cell ...

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...
