Organ-Specific Microenvironments Drive Divergent T Cell Evolution in Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease

Study on Organ-Specific T Cell Differentiation in Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease (AGVHD) Academic Background Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease (AGVHD) is a common and severe complication following Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HCT), caused by the immune attack of donor T cells on host tissues. Although the pathological mechanis...

Ciliopathies: Undocking of an Extensive Ciliary Network Induces Proteostasis and Cell Fate Switching Resulting in Severe Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia

Research on Ciliary Diseases: The Role of CCDC39/CCDC40 Heterodimer in Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Academic Background Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare monogenic disorder characterized by chronic respiratory infections, infertility, and organ laterality defects. Although more than 50 genes associated with PCD have been identified, mutation...

Perinatal Dysfunction of Innate Immunity in Cystic Fibrosis

Study on Congenital Immune Dysfunction in Cystic Fibrosis Research Background Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease caused by mutations in the CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator) gene, primarily affecting the lungs and digestive system. One of the major problems faced by CF patients is recurrent infections and inflammatio...

Mechanism of GADD45B-Mediated Inflammation and Epithelial Cell Senescence in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

DNA Hypomethylation-Mediated Upregulation of GADD45B Facilitates Airway Inflammation and Epithelial Cell Senescence in COPD Academic Background Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by chronic airway inflammation and irreversible airflow limitation, and it is one of the leading causes of death worldwi...

Ultralow-Power Carbon Dioxide Sensor for Real-Time Breath Monitoring

Research on an Ultra-Low Power Carbon Dioxide Sensor for Real-Time Breath Monitoring Academic Background Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is a critical gas produced during human respiration, and its real-time monitoring is essential for diagnosing and treating respiratory diseases (e.g., asthma, dyspnea, sleep apnea) as well as metabolic disorders. Traditional...

A Potential 3-in-1 Combined Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Therapy Using Pulmonary MIL-100(Fe) Formulation

Exploration of a Novel Pulmonary Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Therapy Based on MIL-100(Fe) In recent years, global public health has faced numerous severe challenges, particularly since 2019 with the outbreak of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus pandemic. The high transmission rate and persistence of the virus have exposed bottlenecks in current prevention and treatme...
