Department of Respiratory Medicine, National Key Clinical Specialty, Branch of National Clinical Research Center for Respiratory Disease, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, Hunan 410008, China.
Background: Glucocorticoid-induced transcript 1 (GLCCI1) has been reported to be associated with the efficiency of inhaled glucocorticoids in patients with asthma. This study aimed to investigate the role of GLCCI1 in the regulation of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor (NLR) family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway in the pathogenesis of allergic asthma.
Methods: The expression levels of genes encoding GLCCI1, NLRP3 inflammasome components, and PI3K pathway-related indicators were detected in cells isolated from induced sputum from patients with asthma and healthy controls.

Background: As Generation Z two-spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender/trans, queer, intersex, asexual and others who identify as part of sexual and gender diverse communities (2SLGBTQIA +) enter adulthood, contemplation of family creation may be challenged by biological and/or social infertility. Despite some advances in societal acceptance of gender and sexual minorities, family planning and reproductive healthcare remain heteronormative. To explore reproductive decision-making and how future families are conceptualized across genders, we evaluated perceptions of Ontario, Canada non-parenting, 2SLGBTQIA + emerging adults.

Background: Glucose deprivation inhibits T-cell metabolism and function. Glucose levels are low in the tumor microenvironment of solid tumors and insufficient glucose uptake limits the antitumor response of T cells. Furthermore, glucose restriction can contribute to the failure of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy for solid tumors.
