Allergens in Atopic Dermatitis.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with a complex relationship to allergens. While AD itself is not an allergic reaction and does not necessarily involve allergen sensitization, AD patients show higher rates of sensitization to food and inhalant allergens compared to the general population. Recent evidence refining the "dual allergen exposure hypothesis" demonstrates that early oral exposure to allergens through an intact gastrointestinal barrier typically promotes tolerance, while exposure through compromised skin or respiratory barriers often leads to sensitization.

Single-cell transcriptome sequencing reveals SPP1-CD44-mediated macrophage-tumor cell interactions drive chemoresistance in TNBC.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is often considered one of the most aggressive subtypes of breast cancer, characterized by a high recurrence rate and low overall survival (OS). It is notorious for posing challenges related to drug resistance. While there has been progress in TNBC research, the mechanisms underlying chemotherapy resistance in TNBC remain largely elusive.
