Growth Differentiation Factor‐15 Could Predict Decreased Hemoglobin in Tuberculosis Treated With Linezolid‐Containing Regimen

The Clinical Respiratory Journal, Volume 20, Issue 5, May 2026.
Baseline GDF‐15 predicts linezolid‐induced myelosuppression in rifampicin‐resistant tuberculosis. Patients with higher pretreatment GDF‐15 (> 950 pg/mL) were more likely to develop significant hemoglobin decline during therapy. Measuring GDF‐15 before treatment may help identify high‐risk patients and guide safer, personalized linezolid use.

Cutaneous non‐tuberculous mycobacterial infections: A retrospective study of 94 cases from Germany

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 608-617, May 2026.
Summary Background Cutaneous non‐tuberculous mycobacterial infections (NTM) remain a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. The aim of this study was to characterize cutaneous NTM infections in Germany over a 24‐year‐period. Patients and Methods 73 patients with cutaneous NTM infections diagnosed at 17 different German University Hospitals from 2000 ...

A Hanks‐type bacterial kinase, PknS, directly phosphorylates the alternative sigma factor EcfK to promote resistance to protist predation

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 9, Page 2772-2793, May 2026.
The Xanthomonas citri Hanks‐type kinase PknS autophosphorylates and directly phosphorylates the alternative sigma factor EcfK at five residues. Besides the conserved residue T51 in the σ2 domain, phosphorylation of a residue in the linker between σ2 and σ4 is critical for EcfK activation by promoting its interaction with a positively charged pocket in ...

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

Immunology, Volume 178, Issue 1, Page 97-108, May 2026.
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.

Why Is MS a More Frequent Complication of EBV Infection in Females?

Immunological Reviews, Volume 339, Issue 1, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a T helper (Th) cell‐mediated disease that targets central nervous system (CNS) white matter. This disease affects three times more females than males. For many years, the etiology of MS was not well understood and the exact nature of the autoimmune reaction was speculative.
