Human T9 cells rely on PPAR-γ-mediated cystine uptake to prevent lipid peroxidation and bioenergetic failure.

T9 cells are implicated in allergic skin inflammation and depend on the transcription factor PPAR-γ for full effector function. In this study, we uncovered a role for PPAR-γ in the amino acid metabolism of human T9 cells. In in-vitro-primed T9 cells, PPAR-γ expression positively correlated with the expression of SLC7A8, which encodes LAT2, a transporter of large neutral amino acids, including cystine.

Scuole che promuovono salute (Sps) is a model promoted by the World Health Organization and recognized at the European and national levels for promoting health and well-being at school. Pause Attive is an effective and evidence-based intervention to promote physical activity and reduce sedentary behaviour of children in the school setting. In the 2023-2024 school year, 348 schools joined the "Rete Lazio Sps" of which 99 joined the intervention Pause Attive for a total of 1.

IL-9 sensitizes human T2 cells to proinflammatory IL-18 signals in atopic dermatitis.

Background: T2 cells crucially contribute to the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD) by secreting high levels of IL-13 and IL-22. Yet the upstream regulators that activate T2 cells in AD skin remain unclear. IL-18 is a putative upstream regulator of T2 cells because it is implicated in AD pathogenesis and has the capacity to activate T cells.

"Trap technique": A new multimodal approach for the treatment of intracardiac foreign body retrieval.

In medical practice, the retrieval of intravascular foreign bodies (IFBs) represents a challenge and often requires a multidisciplinary approach. We report a case of a 65-year-old male patient with a metallic guide wire extended from the right subclavian artery to the left ventricle. An interventional radiology team employed the "trap technique", with a combination of a retrieval device and angiographic catheters, which results crucial in this case.
