Objective: To investigate the inhibiting effects of interleukin-10 (IL-10) on the expression of E-selectin and L-selectin in cerebral ischemia-reperfusions.
Methods: Seventy-two adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 equal groups, cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) group undergoing middle cerebral artery occlusion with Longa's thread method, IL-10 group undergoing lateral ventricle injection of IL-10 after the establishment of I/R model, Vehicle group undergoing lateral ventricle injection of normal saline after the establishment of I/R model, and sham operation (Sham) group. Twenty-four hours later the rats were killed with their brains taken out. Immunohistochemistry, RT-PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of E-selectin and L-selectin.
Results: The E-selectin and L-selectin expression levels of the I/R group were significantly up-regulated compared with the Sham group (both P < 0.05). The numbers of E-selectin and L-selectin positive vessels of the IL-10 group were 18.8 +/- 1.9/10 HP fields and 15.8 + 2.4/10 HP fields respectively, both significantly less than those of the vehicle group (24.7 +/- 2.4/10 HP fields and 20.9 + 3.3/10 HP fields respectively, both P < 0.05). The E-selectin and L-selectin gene mRNA expression levels of the IL-10 group were (0.431 +/- 0.029) and (0.318 +/- 0.048) respectively, both significantly lower than those of the Vehicle group [(0.497 +/- 0.019) and (0.433 +/- 0.087) respectively, both P < 0.05]. The E-selectin and L-selectin protein expression levels of the IL-10 group were (0.349 +/- 0.037) and (0.296 +/- 0.035) respectively, both significantly lower than those of the Vehicle group [(0.421 +/- 0.043,) and (0.348 +/- 0.044) respectively, both P < 0.05].
Conclusions: IL-10 suppresses the expression of E-selectin and L-selectin in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion.

Combined Radiotherapy and Hyperthermia: A Systematic Review of Immunological Synergies for Amplifying Radiation-Induced Abscopal Effects.
Cancers (Basel)

Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Antwerp, 2610 Wilrijk, Belgium.
Introduction: The abscopal effect is a systemic immune response characterized by metastases regression at sites distant from the irradiated lesion. This systematic review aims to explore the immunological mechanisms of action underlying the abscopal effect and to investigate how hyperthermia (HT) can increase the chances of radiotherapy (RT) triggering systemic anti-tumor immune responses.
Methods: This review is created in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines.

To minimize off-target adverse effects and improve drug efficacy, various tissue-specific drug delivery systems have been developed. However, even in diseased organs, both normal and stressed, dying cells coexist, and a targeted delivery system specifically for dying cells has yet to be explored to mitigate off-target effects within the same organ. This study aimed to establish such a system.

Article Synopsis
- Many biomarkers for lupus nephritis have not been validated across different studies, but identifying urinary biomarkers that can differentiate active lupus nephritis from inactive disease is clinically important.* -
- The review assessed 40 studies involving 3,411 patients and identified 32 candidate urinary biomarkers, with 14 of them validated in multiple papers and showing strong diagnostic potential.* -
- These urinary biomarkers can not only assist in diagnosis and monitoring of active lupus nephritis but also provide insights into the underlying kidney processes, suggesting that advancements in proteomics will enhance our understanding even further.*

Article Synopsis
- * A study improved BMSCs' effectiveness by genetically modifying them to express HCELL, a strong ligand that enhances their ability to migrate to ischemic areas in the brain.
- * The results indicated that these modified BMSCs significantly reduced neurological damage, minimized brain cell death, and decreased inflammation, suggesting that HCELL expression could be a valuable treatment approach for ischemic stroke.

Objective: This study aimed to ascertain the serum levels of selectins (E, L, P) and platelet-endothelial adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) in preschool children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and to establish a comparison with the levels observed in healthy controls.
Methods: The study included 34 children aged 2-7 years diagnosed with ASD (ASD group) and 34 randomly selected healthy children matched for age and sex to the ASD group. The children were free of any genetic or physical disease, clinically active infection, or medication use.
