Background And Aims: A host of studies investigated the associations between tumor necrosis factor alpha inducible protein 3 (TNFAIP3) gene rs2230926 and rs5029937 polymorphisms and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility, but with conflicting findings. Therefore, we explored whether TNFAIP3 gene rs2230926 and rs5029937 polymorphisms are associated with RA by meta-analysis.

Material And Methods: We performed out a comprehensive literature search of PubMed, Elsevier, Embase, and CNKI databases to identify relevant studies. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of the associations.

Results: Literature search identified 10 case-control studies involving 18,014 cases and 20,112 controls in this meta-analysis. Our data supported an association between TNFAIP3 gene rs2230926 and rs5029937 polymorphisms and RA risk. Stratification analysis of ethnicity indicated that rs5029937 polymorphism increased the risk of RA among Caucasians, while rs2230926 polymorphism increased the risk of RA among Asians and Caucasians.

Conclusions: In conclusion, this meta-analysis demonstrates that TNFAIP3 gene polymorphisms (rs2230926 and rs5029937) are associated with the increased risk of RA.

Patients with A20 haploinsufficiency (HA20) presenting with central nervous system (CNS) symptoms are rare, and available reports are limited. Here, we describe a patient with HA20, previously followed up as Behçet disease, who presented with CNS symptoms in adulthood. A 38-year-old Japanese male who had been followed up for incomplete Behçet disease at another hospital since 28 years of age presented to our hospital with acute-onset diplopia and persistent hiccups that were severe enough to cause vomiting.

Background: Synovitis is one of the key pathological feature driving osteoarthritis (OA) development. Diverse programmed cell death (PCD) pathways are closely linked to the pathogenesis of OA, but few studies have explored the relationship between PCD-related genes and synovitis.

Methods: The transcriptome expression profiles of OA synovial samples were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.

Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is based on nuclear reactions between thermal neutron and boron-10 preferentially distributed in the cancer cells. B-boronophenylalanine (BPA) is the approved drug for treatment of oral cancers for BNCT. However, the predictive biomarkers to evaluate therapeutic efficacy and side-effects have not been clarified yet.

TNFAIP3-interacting protein 1 (ABIN-1) negatively regulates caspase-8/FADD-dependent pyroptosis.

FEBS J

Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, School of Medicine, Southeast University, Nanjing, China.

TNFAIP3-interacting protein 1 (TNIP1; also known as ABIN-1) is a ubiquitin-binding protein that suppresses death-receptor- or Toll-like receptor-mediated apoptosis and necroptosis; however, it remains unclear whether ABIN-1 is capable of regulating pyroptosis. In the present study, we found that, in mouse embryonic fibroblasts and macrophages, ABIN-1 deficiency sensitized cells to poly(I:C) + TAK1 inhibitor 5Z-7-oxozeaenol-induced pyroptosis besides apoptosis and necroptosis. The sensitizing effect of ABIN-1 deficiency on pyroptosis depended on caspase-8 and its adaptor molecule FAS-associated death domain protein.

Department of Hematology, Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital, No. 20 Yudong Road, Zhifu District, Yantai City, Shandong, 264000, China.

This meta-analysis aimed to assess the impact of genetic mutations, particularly in the NOTCH2 and TNFAIP3 genes, on the prognostic outcomes of Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL) patients. Databases, including PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library, were explored up to October 2023. A total of 11 studies encompassing 2,314 records were included.
