The course of severe acute and chronic odontogenic purulent inflammatory staphylococcal disorders involves the depression of cellular (myeloperoxidase, cation proteins of the neutrophilic leucocytes) and humoral (hemolytic complement and the blood serum bacteriostatic activities) antigen-independent immune factors. The differentiated immunomodulating therapy is recommended in such cases.

Unlabelled: Mounting evidence links systemic innate immunity with cancer immune surveillance. In advanced metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), Black patients have been found to have increased inflammatory markers and longer survival after sipuleucel-T (sip-T) therapy, an FDA-approved, autologous cell therapy. We hypothesized these differences may be explained by previously reported ancestral differences in pattern recognition receptor signaling, which broadly governs innate inflammation to control adaptive immune cell activation, chemotaxis, and functionality.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has resulted in remarkable clinical success in the treatment of B-cell malignancies. However, its clinical efficacy in solid tumors is limited, primarily by target antigen heterogeneity. To overcome antigen heterogeneity, we developed CAR T cells that overexpress LIGHT, a ligand of both lymphotoxin-β receptor on cancer cells and herpes virus entry mediator on immune cells.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the factors that predict the development of inhibitors (neutralizing antibodies) against factor VIII (FVIII) in hemophilia A patients, highlighting that both genetic and environmental influences are not fully understood.
  • - Researchers used HA and wild-type (WT) mice to examine immune responses after exposure to FVIII and ovalbumin (OVA), assessing antibody levels and immune cell dynamics over nine weeks.
  • - Findings revealed that humoral responses to FVIII were similar between HA and WT groups, but HA T cells showed heightened sensitivity and increased memory T-cell activation and proliferation, indicating a distinct immune response in hemophilia A.

Chimeric antigen receptor T cells have dramatically improved the treatment of hematologic malignancies. T cell antigen receptor (TCR)-based cell therapies are yet to achieve comparable outcomes. Importantly, chimeric antigen receptors not only target selected antigens but also reprogram T cell functions through the co-stimulatory pathways that they engage upon antigen recognition.

Cognate antigen-independent differentiation of resident memory T cells in chronic kidney disease.

Article Synopsis
  • Resident memory T cells (Ts) act as local defenders in tissues and can contribute to chronic inflammation, but their differentiation process and role in chronic kidney disease (CKD) remain unclear.
  • In a study involving male C57BL/6J and OT-1 transgenic mice subjected to aristolochic acid (AA) injections, researchers observed a significant presence of Ts in the kidneys after CKD induction and identified key T cell surface markers and transcription factors.
  • The findings suggest that Ts in the kidneys can develop through mechanisms that do not rely on standard antigen recognition, emphasizing the need for further investigation into their roles and generation processes in CKD contexts.
