Erythroblastic islands of the bone marrow are morpho-functional units of erythropoiesis. The functional state of erythroblastic islands' cells of the bone marrow was for the first time defined by estimation of activity of the nuclear organisers of the central macrophages in the erythroblastic islands cultivated for 24 hrs in presence of various doses of the colony-stimulating macrophage factor. The findings indicate that increased doses of the colonystimulating macrophage factor was accompanied by a respective enhancement of the activity of nucleolar organisers in central macrophages of erythroblastic islands.

Viruses have evolved to strategically exploit cellular signaling pathways to evade host immune defenses. GM-CSF signaling plays a pivotal role in regulating inflammation, activating myeloid cells, and enhancing the immune response to infections. Due to its central role in the immune system, viruses may target this pathway to further establish infection.

Cucurbitacins are a class of triterpenoid compounds extracted from plants and possess various pharmacological applications. Cucurbitacin IIb (CuIIb), extracted from the medicinal plant Hemsleya amabilis (Cucurbitaceae), has served as a traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of bacterial dysentery and intestinal inflammation. CuIIb has been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory activity; however, the protective effect of CuIIb against concanavalin A (Con A)-induced acute liver injury (ALI) and the fundamental mechanism remain unelucidated.

Sargramostim, a recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) inhalation therapy, was recently approved for pharmaceutical use in Japan and shows promise as a treatment for autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (APAP). For APAP patients with severe respiratory failure due to advanced lung fibrosis, lung transplantation is also a treatment option; however, APAP may recur after the procedure. Here, we report a case of successful sargramostim inhalation therapy for post-transplant APAP relapse in a patient who underwent living lung transplantation owing to severe fibrosis.

Background: Tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in tumor growth and metastasis. Exploring biomarkers that are significantly associated with TME can help guide individualized treatment of patients.

Methods: We analyzed the expression and survival of P4HB in pan-cancer through the TCGA database, and verified the protein level of P4HB by the HPA database.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) necessitates innovative prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets. By investigating PNMA1 in HCC via the TCGA and GEO databases and our clinical data, we found that its overexpression is associated with worse survival. The relevance of PNMA1 extends to immune factors such as M1 macrophages, CD8 T cells, and immune checkpoints.
