Here, we describe a 48-year-old woman infected by the human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) with spondyloarthritis, uveitis, bilateral episcleritis and neurogenic bladder. She had a history of a probable infective dermatitis associated with HTLV-1 (IDH) in childhood. After the use of adalimumab, she developed lymphocytosis and a cutaneous lymphoma associated with IDH. She had the diagnoses of IDH and of chronic adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, supported by the demonstration of proviral integration in the cutaneous lesion.

Purpose: To investigate the role of S100A8/A9 in the pathogenesis of Sjögren's dry eye disease (SjDED) and explore its potential mechanism of action.
Methods: S100A8/A9 expression was determined by western blot and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Tear secretion, corneal fluorescein staining, and hematoxylin and eosin staining were used to evaluate the effect of paquinimod, a S100A8/A9 inhibitor, on dry eye disease in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice.

Background: Post-coronavirus disease 19 lung fibrosis (PCLF) shares common immunological abnormalities with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), characterized by an unbalanced cytokine profile being associated with the development of lung fibrosis. The aim of the present study was to analyze and compare the different subsets of CD4- and CD8-T cells, along with specific cytokine expression patterns, in peripheral blood (PB) from patients affected by PCLF and IPF and healthy controls (HCs).
Methods: One-hundred patients followed at the Rare Lung Disease Center of Siena University Hospital were enrolled.

COVID-19 remains a significant global health problem with uncertain long-term consequences for convalescents. We investigated the relationships between anti-N protein antibody levels, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-CoV-2-associated TCR repertoire parameters, HLA type and epidemiological information from three cohorts of 524 SARS-CoV-2-infected subjects subgrouped in acute phase, seronegative and seropositive convalescents from the Emilia Romagna region. Epidemiological information and anti-N antibody index were associated with TCR repertoire data.

In B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL), the prognostic impact of immune reconstitution (IR) remains ill-defined, and detailed cross-product comparisons have not been performed to date. In this retrospective observational study, we longitudinally characterized lymphocyte subsets and immunoglobulin levels in 105 B-NHL patients to assess patterns of immune recovery arising after CD19 CAR-T.

Background: The characteristics of tumor immune microenvironment are important factors affecting the efficacy of immunotherapy, and there are differences in the distribution of tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) subsets in different types of tumors. This study aims to compare the distributions of cluster of differentiation (CD) 4+ and CD4+ T cell subsets of TILs and their clinical significance between lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC).
Methods: The tumor tissues of 78 LUAD and 56 LUSC patients who underwent surgery at The Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between October 2020 and October 2022 were collected, TIL level were detected by pathological observation, and the proportions of CD4+, CD4+ T cell subsets and CD4+/CD4+ ratio in TILs were detected by flow cytometry.
