Metabolic Rewiring Controlled by HIF-1α Tunes IgA-Producing B-Cell Differentiation and Intestinal Inflammation

Metabolic Rewiring Controlled by HIF-1α Tunes IgA-Producing B-Cell Differentiation and Intestinal Inflammation Background Introduction Germinal centers (GC) are critical sites for the clonal expansion of immune B cells and the affinity maturation of antibodies, as well as the occurrence of antibody class switching. Within the GC, B cells undergo so...

The Antitumor Activity of TGFβ-Specific T Cells is Dependent on IL-6 Signaling

Review of the Study on the Relationship Between IL-6 Signaling and the Anti-Tumor Activity of TGFβ-Specific T Cells Background and Significance of the Study Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine that plays a critical role in inflammation and hematopoiesis. However, its role in the immune system is context-dependent. While it has pro-inflam...

Digital Spatial Transcriptomics Highlights DTX3L and BST2 as Crucial Biomarkers in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Tumorigenesis Background and Research Question Esophageal cancer (EC) remains a globally prevalent malignant disease with high incidence and mortality rates. Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), the most common histological su...

Structural Variant Allelic Heterogeneity in MECP2 Duplication Syndrome Provides Insight into Clinical Severity and Variability of Disease Expression

Study of Structural Variation in MECP2 Duplication Syndrome and Its Phenotypic Variability Academic Background MECP2 Duplication Syndrome (MRXSL) is an X-linked genomic disorder primarily caused by an increase in the copy number of the MECP2 gene on the X chromosome. This condition predominantly affects males, and its clinical features vary widely,...

Integrated Analyses of Multi-Omic Data Reveal Metabolic Vulnerability as a Novel Therapeutic Target in Lung Cancer Brain Metastases

Report on the Multi-Omics Study of Lung Cancer Brain Metastases (LC-BMs) Academic Background Lung cancer is one of the most prevalent and deadly cancers worldwide. Lung cancer brain metastases (LC-BMs) are a common complication in patients with lung cancer and are associated with poor prognosis. Despite advances in lung cancer therapies, the standa...
