Interleukin 1 (IL-1) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine that plays a key role in the development and regulation of nonspecific defense and specific immunity. However, its regulatory influence extends beyond inflammation and impacts a range of immune and non-immune processes. The involvement of IL-1 in numerous biological processes, including modulation of inflammation, necessitates strict regulation at multiple levels.

TCR-T cell therapy represents a promising advancement in adoptive immunotherapy for cancer treatment. Despite its potential, the development and preclinical testing of TCR-T cells face significant challenges. This review provides a structured overview of the key stages in preclinical testing, including in silico, in vitro, and in vivo methods, within the context of the sequential development of novel therapies.

Cell-based therapies using corneal stromal stem cells (CSSC), corneal keratocytes, or a combination of both suppress corneal scarring. The number of quiescent keratocytes in the cornea is small; it is difficult to expand them in vitro in quantities suitable for transplantation. This study examined the therapeutic effect of corneal fibroblasts reversed into keratocytes (rCF) in a mouse model of mechanical corneal injury.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers aimed to develop a cellular model to study the effects of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) depending on the presence or absence of TNFR1 and TNFR2 receptors in cell lines.
  • They created TNFR1 knockout versions of ZR-75/1 and K-562 cell lines to analyze how this absence affects receptor distribution, cell cycle, cell death, and gene expression in response to TNF.
  • Findings showed that removing TNFR1 led to changes in TNFR2 distribution, influencing sensitivity to TNF and altering cell proliferation and death patterns in different ways across the two cell lines.
