Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective Carbamylation, a nonenzymatic post‐translational modification, contributes to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis. Anti‐carbamylated protein antibodies (anti‐CarP) occur in around 50% of patients with RA and associate with greater joint damage. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are a major source of carbamylated autoantigens. We sought

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective Immune complexes (ICs), formed by autoantigen and autoantibody, play a pathogenic role in systemic autoimmune diseases through stimulation of Fcγ receptors (FcγR). However, studies investigating bioactivity of circulating ICs across various diseases remain limited.

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective The hematopoietic system maintains homeostasis by balancing myeloid and lymphoid cell production in the bone marrow (BM). In response to increased hematopoietic demand, extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) may occur in nonlymphoid organs. We investigated the role of EMH and kidney‐resident hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in ...

Beyond knowledge: Cultivating noncognitive skills and attributes through anatomy education
Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.Abstract Anatomy education has historically prioritized cognitive knowledge acquisition and technical skills, such as spatial awareness and manual dexterity. Noncognitive attributes, essential for early‐stage learners, such as social skills, motivation, emotional intelligence, self‐regulation, self‐efficacy, and resilience, have remained comparatively ...

Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Irritability is a prevalent and impairing feature associated with autism, yet remains poorly understood, particularly in adults. Drawing heavily on insights translated from pediatric and transdiagnostic literatures, we propose that irritability in autistic individuals often reflects a psychophysiological stress or threat response, rooted in a ...

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Neisseria gonorrhoeae poses an urgent public health challenge due to rapidly increasing antimicrobial resistance and the absence of an effective vaccine. Targeting conserved bacterial pathways involved in essential physiological processes may provide new opportunities for vaccine antigen discovery.

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Effective vaccines against Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, are urgently needed. Here, we report the design and in silico validation of a novel multiepitope vaccine construct targeting the key surface proteins ASP‐2 and gp82. Using a comprehensive immunoinformatics pipeline, we identified and selected 38 potent T‐cell (

Navigating adverse immunostimulation: A practical guide for clinical researchers
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Problem Setting As drug development moves towards more complex products, early clinical development programmes are increasingly hampered by unwanted and/or unexpected activation of the immune system (adverse immune stimulation, AIS). Solution At the Centre for Human Drug Research, we have introduced standardized procedures to make AIS manageable, while

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Aim Intradermal application of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a Toll‐like receptor 4 agonist, induces a local inflammatory response and is used as a human challenge model to evaluate the pharmacodynamics of investigational medicinal products. While currently applied in a single, parallel‐group setting, alternative within‐subject designs involving repeated ...

Lost and found in translation: the value of the human imiquimod model
British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.Topical imiquimod (IMQ), a Toll‐like receptor (TLR) 7 agonist, induces transient cutaneous inflammation and is widely used in preclinical research as a ‘psoriasis‐like’ mouse model. However, accumulating evidence indicates substantial divergence between IMQ‐driven biology and human plaque psoriasis pathogenesis.
