Neonatal hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) remains one of the major causes of neonatal death and long-term neurological disability. Due to its complex pathogenesis, there are still many challenges in its treatment. In our previous studies, we found that quercetin can alleviate neurological dysfunction after hypoxic-ischaemic brain injury (HIBI) in neonatal mice.

Endometrial cancer (EC) is one of the most common cancers of the female reproductive system. Multi-epitope vaccine may be a promising and effective strategy against EC. In this study, we designed a novel multi-epitope vaccine based on the antigenic proteins PRAME and TMPRSS4 using immunoinformatics and bioinformatics approaches.

Currently, there is no licensed therapy or vaccine available for CHIKV, although the most promising form of treatment appears to be immunotherapy. Neutralizing antibodies for CHIKV can provide high protection for all CHIKV strains, as well as other alphaviruses.

It is urgent to discover a novel biomarker to predict immune cells infiltration status and immunotherapy response of different cancers. CLSPN has been reported to play a pivotal role in various biological processes.

With the expansion of the susceptible population, the incidence of Nocardia has been gradually growing, accompanied by increased resistance of the pathogen to existing therapeutics. However, there is no effective vaccine against this pathogen yet.

is an extraordinarily versatile pathogen, which is currently the most common cause of nosocomial and community infections. Considering that increased antibiotic resistance may hasten the spread of , developing an effective vaccine can possibly aid in its control. The RNA vaccine coding immunodominance epitopes from bacteria provide a potential method to induce T and B cell immune responses by translating them into cells.

Due to the complicated pathological process of SCI, there is currently still a lack of effective treatment for SCI. Microglia, a type of immune cell residing in the central nervous system (CNS), need to respond to various stimuli to protect neuronal cells from death.

Neurovascular injuries occur spontaneously following spinal cord injury (SCI), leading to irreversible loss of motor and sensory function. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC)-derived exosome-educated macrophages (EEM) have great characteristics as therapeutic candidates for SCI treatment.

Methods: We searched PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library for eligible studies. Annualized relapse rate, discontinuation due to adverse events (AEs) were assessed as primary outcomes.
The aim of this study was to observe the effect of Zhuang medicine medicated thread moxibustion on protomics in serum of postherpetic neuralgia patient with herpes zoster and discuss the action mechanism of Zhuang medicine medicated thread moxibustion in treating postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). Patients were divided into three groups in clinic, namely the pre-treatment group (n=20), post-treatment group (n=20) and healthy group (n=20), patients meeting corresponding conditions were recruited in the voluntary principle to accept PHN pain evaluation and protomics tests respectively. Compared with the pre-treatment group, visual analogue scale (VAS) in post-treatment group obviously reduced, protomics indexes like MFG-ES, Lymphotoxin beta/TNFSF3, IL-19, Neuritin, NCAM-1/CD56 and PECAM-1/CD31 obviously changed.
