Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.Olfactory tuft cells communicate with other mucosal cells in maintaining olfactory epithelial immunity and sensory function. Disruption of tuft cell signalling pathways causes a skewed immune response, leading to heightened inflammation and increased activation of the quiescent stem cells, which are further exacerbated by viral infection.

New insights into β‐cell vulnerability in type 1 diabetes—Lessons from nature
Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Type 1 diabetes results from an autoimmune‐mediated destruction of pancreatic β‐cells, yet considerable heterogeneity exists regarding disease onset, progression and severity. Emerging evidence suggests that this variability reflects not only differences in immune responses, but also differences in the architecture and immune landscape of the ...

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Eosinophilia, defined as an absolute eosinophil count (AEC) of ≥ 0.5 × 109/L, is a frequently encountered finding with a vast spectrum of potential underlying etiologies. Hypereosinophilia (HE) is defined as AEC > 1.5 × 109/L and may become life‐threatening when eosinophil‐induced organ damage occurs, defining the hypereosinophilic syndrome ...
