The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation of flow cytometric parameters and transferrin receptors with gallium-67 scintigraphic imaging results in Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients. DNA content and cell cycle analyses were performed using flow cytometry and transferrin receptor analysis was carried out by the immunohistochemistry technique in 24 patients aged between 16 and 62 years. All patients underwent gallium-67 scintigraphy, and tumour to background ratios were calculated. The findings were correlated with computed tomography and/or magnetic resonance imaging. A strong relationship was observed between flow cytometry and transferrin receptor expression with gallium-67 tumour scintigraphy [P = 0.005, r = 0.054 and P = 0.038, r = 0.54 (Spearman test), respectively]. The results of this study show that there is a close correlation between each of these modalities and, as they reflect the biological activity of the tumour, together they have a major role in treatment and follow-up.

Background: Subjects with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMID), such as rheumatoid arthritis, with tuberculosis infection (TBI), have a high probability of progressing to tuberculosis disease (TB). We aim to characterize the impact of IMID on the immune response to (Mtb) in patients with TBI and TB disease.
Methods: We enrolled TBI and TB patients with and without IMID.

Background: Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are key components of the pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) tumor microenvironment (TME), where they promote tumor progression and metastasis through immunosuppressive functions. Although significant progress has been made in understanding the crosstalk between cancer cells and CAFs, many underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Recent studies have highlighted the importance of calcium signaling in enhancing interactions between tumor cells and the surrounding stroma, with the S100 family of proteins serving as important regulators.

Previous studies reported baseline state-dependent effects on neural and hemodynamic responses to transcranial ultrasound stimulation. However, due to neurovascular coupling, neither neural nor hemodynamic baseline alone can fully explain the ultrasound-induced responses. In this study, using a general linear model, we aimed to investigate the roles of both neural and hemodynamic baseline status as well as their interactions in ultrasound-induced responses.

The zinc finger protein 32 (ZNF32) has been associated with high expression in various cancers, underscoring its significant function in both cancer biology and immune response. To further elucidate the biological role of ZNF32 and identify potential immunotherapy targets in cancer, we conducted an in-depth analysis of ZNF32. We comprehensively investigated the expression of ZNF32 across tumors using diverse databases, including TCGA, CCLE, TIMER2.
