Pathogenesis of endometriosis (EN) is still unknown, but growing evidence suggests that immune regulation may be important, and the pattern of peripheral immune changes in reproductive women with EN has yet to be fully explored. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive and systematic analysis of immune cell subsets within T cells, B cells, NK cells, and γδ T cells in peripheral blood (PB) samples from women with EN, women with uterine fibroids (UF) but without EN (UF-alone), and healthy controls using multi-parameter flow cytometry. Our findings revealed that UF, a common comorbidity of EN, exhibited similar peripheral immune features to EN, particularly in T cell and B cell immunity.

In tropical and subtropical regions, dengue fever is a common febrile illness that is mostly spread by Aedes mosquitoes. Urban population migration, inadequate water storage facilities, and high mosquito density are features associated with this disease. The severity of the illness ranges from mild to deadly dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) and dengue shock syndrome (DSS), often with severe cases causing profound shock from extensive plasma leakage, and may result in demise.

Introduction: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a debilitating chronic condition characterized by inflammation of the joints, bones, enthesis, and skin. The pivotal role of interleukin-23 (IL-23) in the pathogenesis of PsA has become increasingly evident. This proinflammatory cytokine is markedly elevated in patients with PsA, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target.

Background: Evidence suggests that COVID-19 predisposes to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). While monocytes/macrophages play a central role in the immunopathogenesis of atherosclerosis, less is known about their immunopathogenic mechanisms that lead to CVDs during COVID-19. Natural killer (NK) cells, which play an intermediary role during pathologies like atherosclerosis, are dysregulated during COVID-19.
