Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) requires innovative therapeutic strategies to counteract its progression and metastatic potential. Since the majority of patients are diagnosed with advanced metastatic disease, treatment strategies targeting not only the primary tumor but also metastatic lesions are needed. Tumor-Associated Macrophages (TAMs) have emerged as central players, significantly influencing PDAC progression and metastasis.

Recent studies indicate that human spleen contains over 95% of the total parasite biomass during chronic asymptomatic infections caused by . Previous studies have demonstrated that extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted from infected reticulocytes facilitate binding to human spleen fibroblasts (hSFs) and identified parasite genes whose expression was dependent on an intact spleen. Here, we characterize the spleen-dependent hypothetical gene (PVX_114580).

The inability of people living with HIV (PLWH) to eradicate human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is due in part to the inadequate HIV-specific cellular immune response. The antiviral function of cytotoxic CD8+ T cells, which are crucial for HIV control, is impaired during chronic viral infection because of viral escape mutations, immune exhaustion, HIV antigen downregulation, inflammation, and apoptosis. In addition, some HIV-infected cells either localize to tissue sanctuaries inaccessible to CD8+ T cells or are intrinsically resistant to CD8+ T cell killing.

DNA damage-induced senescence is initially sustained by p53. Senescent cells produce a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) that impacts the aging microenvironment, often promoting cell transformation. Employing normal non-tumorous human colon cells (hNCC) derived from surgical biopsies and three-dimensional human intestinal organoids, we show that local non-pituitary growth hormone (npGH) induced in senescent cells is a SASP component acting to suppress p53.

Background: Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a highly malignant gastrointestinal tumor, which is characterized by difficulties in early diagnosis, early metastasis, limited therapeutic response and a grim prognosis. Therefore, it is imperative to explore potential therapeutic targets for PC. Currently, although the involvement of the Pellino E3 Ubiquitin Protein Ligase 1 (PELI1) in the human growth of some malignant tumors has been demonstrated, its association with PC remains uncertain.
