In-situ tumor vaccination remains challenging due to difficulties in the exposure and presentation of tumor-associated neoantigens (TANs). In view of the central role of lipid metabolism in cell fate determination and tumor-immune cell communication, here we report a photo-controlled lipid metabolism nanoregulator (PLMN) to achieve robust in-situ adjuvant-free vaccination, which is constructed through hierarchically integrating photothermal-inducible arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase (ALOX15)-expressing plasmids, cypate and FIN56 into cationic liposomes. Near-infrared light (NIR) stimulation triggers on-demand ALOX15 editing and causes excessive accumulation of downstream pro-ferroptosis lipid metabolites.

Typical renal involvement of antineutrophilic cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) is pauci-immune glomerulonephritis that presents clinically as rapidly progressive renal failure (RPRF). Here, we report an unusual presentation of myeloperoxidase (MPO)-specific ANCA with isolated involvement of the tubulointerstitium in the form of peritubular capillaritis as the sole lesion without any involvement of the glomerulus. A 52-year-old woman with no previous comorbidities presented with nonspecific symptoms such as fatigue, dysuria, and nausea for two months.

Introduction: Mu-opioid receptors (MORs) are G-coupled protein receptors with a high affinity for both endogenous and exogenous opioids. MORs are widely expressed in the central nervous system (CNS), peripheral organs, and the immune system. They mediate pain and reward and have been implicated in the pathophysiology of opioid, cocaine, and other substance use disorders.

Objective: Thrombocytopenia is a common complication of hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT), though many patients will become immune refractory to platelet transfusions over time. We built and evaluated an electronic health record (EHR)-integrated, standards-based application that enables blood-bank clinicians to match platelet inventory with patients using data previously not available at the point-of-care, like human leukocyte antigen (HLA) data for donors and recipients.

Materials And Methods: The web-based application launches as an EHR-embedded application or as a standalone application.

Point of view: Challenges in implementation of new immunotherapies for Alzheimer's disease.

The advancement of disease-modifying treatments (DMTs) for Alzheimer's disease (AD), along with the approval of three amyloid-targeting therapies in the US and several other countries, represents a significant development in the treatment landscape, offering new hope for addressing this once untreatable chronic progressive disease. However, significant challenges persist that could impede the successful integration of this class of drugs into clinical practice. These challenges include determining patient eligibility, appropriate use of diagnostic tools and genetic testing in patient care pathways, effective detection and monitoring of side effects, and improving the healthcare system's readiness by engaging both primary care and dementia specialists.
