Saponin-based adjuvants (SBAs) distinguish themselves as vaccine adjuvants by instigating a potent activation of CD8+ T cells. Previously, we discovered SBA's ability to induce cross-presentation in dendritic cells (DCs) leading to CD8+ T cell activation. Moreover, the MHCIICD11b bone marrow-derived DC (BMDC) subset was identified to be the most responsive DC subset to SBA treatment.

The viral protein mutations can modify virus-host interactions during virus evolution, and thus alter the extent of infection or pathogenicity. Studies indicate that nucleocapsid (N) protein of SARS-CoV-2 participates in viral genome assembly, intracellular signal regulation and immune interference. However, its biological function in viral evolution is not well understood.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the activated core kinases involved in the DNA damage responses (DDR) during ferroptosis of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells in vitro and their regulatory effects on ferroptosis.
Methods: Ferroptosis was induced by erastin in induced RPE (iRPE) cells derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs), hUCMSCs, and induced pluripotent stem cell-derived RPE (iPSC-RPE) cells. CCK8 was employed to measure the cell viability.

Objectives: The mechanism of the odontogenic differentiation of apical papillary cells (APCs) stimulated by bioactive glass 45S5 is still unclear. This study aims to investigate the effect of autophagy on the odontogenic differentiation of APCs stimulated by bioactive glass 45S5.
Methods: APCs were isolated and cultured , and the cell origin was identified by flow cytometry.

Introduction: Despite evidence of the efficacy of decursinol angelate (DA), a prescription medication derived farom traditional Chinese medicine, in alleviating inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the precise mechanisms behind its action remain unclear.
Methods: Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) induction were used as and models of IBD, respectively, to assess the role of DA in alleviating IBD. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to detect the expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in mouse serum, Western blot was performed to detect the expression of TXNIP/NLRP3 pathway tight junction (TJ) proteins in colon tissues and cells, and immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence and qRT-PCR were used to validate the proteins related to this signaling pathway.
