Squamate reptiles may have compensated for the lack of γδTCR with a duplication of the TRB locus.

Front Immunol

Center for Evolutionary and Theoretical Immunology, Department of Biology, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM, United States.

Squamate reptiles are amongst the most successful terrestrial vertebrate lineages, with over 10,000 species across a broad range of ecosystems. Despite their success, squamates are also amongst the least studied lineages immunologically. Recently, a universal lack of γδ T cells in squamates due to deletions of the genes encoding the T cell receptor (TCR) γ and δ chains was discovered.

Introduction: Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) typically has a profound impact on the neurodevelopment of patients. The study on IESS indicates possible geographical variation in etiology and a lack of data from China. Our study intends to summarize the etiology of IESS and analyze its characteristics.

Adjuvants play a central role in enhancing the immunogenicity of otherwise poorly immunogenic vaccine antigens. Combining adjuvants has the potential to enhance vaccine immunogenicity compared with single adjuvants, although the cellular and molecular mechanisms of combination adjuvants are not well understood. Using the influenza virus hemagglutinin H5 antigen, we define the immunological landscape of combining CpG and MPLA (TLR-9 and TLR-4 agonists, respectively) with a squalene nanoemulsion (AddaVax) using immunologic and transcriptomic profiling.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have garnered attention in research for their potential as biochemical transporters and immune modulators, crucial for regulating the host immune system. The present study was conducted to isolate and characterize EVs from Gram negative bacteria (EVs) and investigate their proteomic profile and immune responses. Isolation of EVs was carried out using ultracentrifugation method.

Background: Pompe disease is a rare genetic disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase. This condition leads to muscle weakness, respiratory problems, and heart abnormalities in affected individuals.

Methods: The aim of the study is to share our experience through cross sectional study of patients with infantile-onset Pompe disease (IOPD) with different genetic variations, resulting in diverse clinical presentations.
