Hypomorphic mutations of the nuclear factor kappaB essential modulator gene cause ectodermal dysplasia and immunodeficiency. Affected patients have increased susceptibility to mycobacterial disease including cutaneous manifestations. We describe clinical and histopathologic characteristics of 5 patients with nuclear factor kappaB essential modulator gene mutations and mycobacterial infections, two of whom had mycobacterial cutaneous infections.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is highly heterogeneous and poses a significant medical challenge due to limited treatment options and poor outcomes. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) play a crucial role in regulating metabolism and cell fate. While the association between PPAR signal and human cancers has been a topic of concern, its specific relationship with TNBC remains unclear.

Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is a growing global health concern and its prevalence and severity are increasing steadily. While bacterial endotoxin translocation into the portal circulation is a well-established key factor, recent evidence highlights the critical role of sterile inflammation, triggered by diverse stimuli, in alcohol-induced liver injury. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the complex interactions within the hepatic microenvironment in ALD.

The pathogenesis of long COVID (LC) still presents many areas of uncertainty. This leads to difficulties in finding an effective specific therapy. We hypothesize that the key to LC pathogenesis lies in the presence of chronic functional damage to the main anti-inflammatory mechanisms of our body: the three reflexes mediated by the vagus nerve, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) hormonal axis, and the mitochondrial redox status.

Phytochrome-interacting factors (PIFs) belong to a subfamily of the bHLH transcription factor family and play a pivotal role in plant light signal transduction, hormone signal pathways, and the modulation of plant responses to various abiotic stresses. The soybean (Glycine max) is a significant food crop, providing essential oil and nutrients. Additionally, it is a vital industrial raw material and a lucrative cash crop.

Powdery mildew (PM), is a significant fungal disease that poses a considerable threat to global agricultural productivity. Autophagy and programmed cell death (PCD) are crucial plant defense responses against PM. However, the role of metacaspases (MCAs) in mediating the interplay between autophagy and PCD in wheat's resistance to PM remains unknown.
