Objective: To study the anti-tumor effect and immune function modulation of Xiaoliu decoction (XLD) and to explore the possible mechanism.
Methods: S180 tumor bearing mice were treated with large or small dose of XLD and cyclophosphamide (CTX) to observe the tumor suppressive rate, lymphocyte transformation rate, natural killer cell (NK) activity, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) level in the mice, as well as the tumor cell apoptosis in vitro.
Results: The tumor suppressive rate of XLD on tumor bearing mice was over 30%. XLD showed obvious trend in enhancing the tumor suppressing rate of chemotherapy, could increase the lymphocyte transformation rate, NK activity, and TNFalpha level. It also could accelerate the tumor cell apoptosis in vitro.
Conclusion: XLD has significant anti-tumor effect, it could elevate the immune function or organism and alleviate the chemotherapy induced lowering of immune function.

The three SDEs of CLas were expressed in citrus leaves by AuNPs-PEI mediated transient expression system, and promoted the proliferation of CLas and inhibited citrus immunity. Huanglongbing (HLB) is the most severe bacterial disease of citrus caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas). CLas suppress host immune responses and promote infection by sec-dependent effectors (SDEs), thus insight into HLB pathogenesis is urgently needed to develop effective management strategies.

Adaptive immune resistance in cancer describes the various mechanisms by which tumors adapt to evade anti-tumor immune responses. IFN-γ induction of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) was the first defined and validated adaptive immune resistance mechanism. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is central to adaptive immune resistance as immune modulatory secreted and integral membrane proteins are dependent on ER.

Monkeypox virus (MPXV) is an important zoonotic pathogenic virus, which poses serious threats to public health. MPXV infection can be prevented by immunization against the variola virus. Because of the safety risks and side effects of vaccination with live vaccinia virus (VACV) strain Tian Tan (VTT), we constructed two gene-deleted VTT recombinants (TTVAC7 and TTVC5).

Background: Ovarian cancers (OC) and cervical cancers (CC) have poor survival rates. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) play a pivotal role in prognosis, but shared immune mechanisms remain elusive.
Methods: We integrated single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics (ST) to explore immune regulation in OC and CC, focusing on the PI3K/AKT pathway and FLT3 as key modulators.

Background: Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) is a common pathogen causing non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections, primarily affecting the lungs. Disseminated MAC disease occurs mainly in immunocompromised individuals, such as those with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, hematological malignancies, or those positive for anti-interferon-γ antibodies. However, its occurrence in solid organ transplant recipients is uncommon.
