GelMA as scaffold material for epithelial cells to emulate the small intestinal microenvironment.

Host-microbe interactions in the intestine play a significant role in health and disease. Novel scaffolds for host cells, capable of potentially supporting these intricate interactions, are necessary to improve our current systems for mimicking host-microbiota interplay in vitro/ex vivo. In this research paper, we study the application of gelatin methacrylamide (GelMA) as scaffold material for intestinal epithelial cells in terms of permeability, mechanical strength, and biocompatibility.

Primary Lymphoma Arising in Paget's Disease in A Patient with Primary Hyperparathyroidism.

Background: Paget's disease of bone (PDB) is characterized by a disturbance of the balance between bone formation and bone resorption at one or more bone sites. Its neoplastic transformation to osteosarcoma of the bone has been widely cited in the literature; however, association with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is very uncommon. In addition, whereas the pathophysiological relationship between PDB and secondary hyperparathyroidism is well established, there is much debate about the association between PDB and primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT).

DNA Repair Capacity and Clinicopathological Characteristics in Puerto Rican Hispanic/Latino Patients with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.

Background: Prostate cancer (PCa) accounts for 22% of the new cases diagnosed in Hispanic/Latino (H/L) men in the US. PCa has the highest incidence (38.3%) and mortality (16.

Leukemia escapes immunity by imposing a Type-1 regulatory program on neoantigen-specific CD4+ T cells.

The significance of endogenous immune surveillance in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) remains controversial. Using clinical B-ALL samples and a novel mouse model, we show that neoantigen-specific CD4+ T cells are induced to adopt type-1 regulatory (Tr1) function in the leukemia microenvironment. Tr1s then inhibit cytotoxic CD8+ T cells, preventing effective leukemia clearance.
