Aβ-Aggregation-Generated Blue Autofluorescence Illuminates Senile Plaques as Well as Complex Blood and Vascular Pathologies in Alzheimer’s Disease

Blue Autofluorescence Generated by Aβ Aggregation Illuminates Senile Plaques and Complex Blood and Vascular Pathologies in Alzheimer’s Disease Research Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a widespread neurodegenerative disorder globally, with senile plaques being the main pathological hallmark of AD, primarily composed of β-amyloid protein (Aβ)....

4-1BB-encoding CAR causes cell death via sequestration of the ubiquitin-modifying enzyme A20

Background Introduction Chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T cells) have shown great potential in immunotherapy for certain hematological malignancies. However, how the CD28 and 4-1BB costimulatory domains included in CAR molecules function in CAR-T cells is still not fully understood. Both CD28 and 4-1BB domains exhibit significantly different...

Synergy of TL1A and IL-18 promotes GM-CSF-dependent thymic granulopoiesis in mice

Background Introduction In acute systemic inflammatory conditions, the immune system undergoes significant changes, typically characterized by increased myeloid cell generation and suppressed lymphocyte production. In the thymus specifically, systemic inflammation leads to acute thymic atrophy and subsequent impairment of T lymphocyte generation. H...

Astrocytic Stress Response Induced by Exposure to Astrocyte-Binding Antibodies in Pediatric Acute Transverse Myelitis Cases

B-cell Response in Pediatric Acute Transverse Myelitis Acute transverse myelitis (ATM) is an autoimmune-mediated inflammatory disease of the spinal cord with an incidence of 1.7-2 cases per million children per year. ATM typically presents with limb weakness, sensory loss, and bladder/bowel dysfunction, with symptoms rapidly developing over hours t...

Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Reveals the Evolution of the Immune Landscape During Perihematomal Edema Progression After Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Single-cell RNA Sequencing Reveals Evolution of Immune Landscape in Perihematomal Edema Post Hemorrhagic Stroke Research Background Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one of the global health threats, renowned for its high disability and mortality rates. Among the secondary brain injuries caused by ICH, the formation of perihematomal edema (PHE) is ...
