Associations between diet diversity during infancy and atopic disease in later life: Systematic review.
J Allergy Clin Immunol Glob
May 2024
Background: The incidence of allergic disease remains high, and many studies have focused on the association between food diversity in infancy and allergic disease later in life, but their conclusions are still controversial.
Objective: We aimed to synthesize the literature on the association between childhood diet diversity and atopic disease.
Methods: We searched the PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, Scopus, VPCS, and Wanfang databases for studies about food diversity and atopic disease.
Article Synopsis
- Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) activates the inflammatory response in macrophages via the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) pathway, but excessive cytokine production can cause tissue damage.
- The study investigates the role of Mer receptor tyrosine kinase (MerTK) in regulating LPS-induced inflammation and macrophage phagocytosis of E. coli.
- Findings suggest that MerTK downregulates pro-inflammatory cytokine production through suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) without influencing the ability of macrophages to engulf E. coli.
Long non-coding RNA EPIC1 promotes human lung cancer cell growth.
Biochem Biophys Res Commun
September 2018
Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) EPIC1 (Lnc-EPIC1) is a MYC-interacting LncRNA. In the present study, the expression and potential function of Lnc-EPIC1 in human lung cancer cells are tested. We show that Lnc-EPIC1 expression is significantly higher in established/primary human lung cancer cells than that in human lung epithelial cells.
