Exploring the CDCA-Scd1 Axis: Molecular Mechanisms Linking the Colitis Microbiome to Neurological Deficits.

Inflammatory bowel disease is a risk factor for brain dysfunction; however, the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. In this study, we aimed to explore the potential molecular mechanisms through which intestinal inflammation affects brain function and to verify these mechanisms. Mice were treated with multiple cycles of 1% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in drinking water to establish a chronic colitis model.

Targeting tumor-infiltrating CCR8 regulatory T cells induces antitumor immunity through functional restoration of CD4 T and CD8 T cells in colorectal cancer.

Background: Chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 8 (CCR8) is a chemokine receptor selectively expressed on tumor-infiltrating regulatory T cells (Tregs). Strong immunosuppression mediated by CCR8 Tregs observed in breast and lung malignancies suggest for their functional significance in cancer therapy. To date, detailed characterization of tumor-infiltrating CCR8 Tregs cells in colorectal cancer (CRC) is limited.
