Purpose: Administration of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is frequently accompanied by severe first infusion reactions (FIR). The mechanism driving FIR is still unclear. This study aimed to investigate the cellular and molecular mechanisms causing FIR in humanized mouse models and their potential for evaluating FIR risk in patients.
Methods: Mice humanized for Fc gamma receptors (FcγRs) were generated by recombination-mediated genomic replacement. Body temperature, cytokine release and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were measured to assess FIR to mAbs.
Results: Infusion of human mAb specific for mouse transferrin receptor (HamTfR) into FcγR-humanized mice, produced marked transient hypothermia accompanied by an increase in inflammatory cytokines KC and MIP-2, and ROS. FIR were dependent on administration route and Fc-triggered effector functions mediated by neutrophils. Human neutrophils also induced FIR in wild type mice infused with HamTfR. Specific knock-in mice demonstrated that human FcγRIIIb on neutrophils was both necessary and sufficient to cause FIR. FcγRIIIb-mediated FIR was abolished by depleting neutrophils or blocking FcγRIIIb with CD11b antibodies.
Conclusions: Human FcγRIIIb and neutrophils are primarily responsible for triggering FIR. Clinical strategies to prevent FIR in patients should focus on this pathway and may include transient depletion of neutrophils or blocking FcγRIIIb with specific mAbs.

This study enrolled five patients with classic paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (cPNH) who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in our hospital from 2019 to 2023. All five patients were male, with a median age of 26 (range: 26-46) years. The median time from diagnosis to allo-HSCT was 5.

Aim: Nowadays, the electromagnetic field (EMF) has become an issue of electromagnetic pollution. This study aimed to determine the effect of 5 G Fr1 frequency band EMF waves on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in testicular tissue and to demonstrate the efficacy of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in suppressing the potential situation.
Materials And Methods: Three groups of eight male Sprague-Dawley rats were established.

Despite several factors influencing reproduction in geese, but the precise molecular mechanisms of egg cessation are not fully understood. In the present study, the hematopoietic parameters and serum hormone levels in Wanxi white geese were analyzed. RNA-Seq was utilized to identify the differentially expressed mRNAs (DEGs) and lncRNAs (DE lncRNAs) in the ovarian tissues associated with nesting in geese during the late-laying and nesting periods.

Purpose: We observed that the tumor microenvironment (TME) in metastatic epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and in other solid tumors can reprogram normal neutrophils to acquire a complement-dependent suppressor phenotype characterized by inhibition of stimulated T cell activation. This study aims to evaluate whether serum markers of neutrophil activation and complement at diagnosis of EOC would be associated with clinical outcomes.
Experimental Design: We conducted a two-center prospective study of patients with newly diagnosed EOC (N = 188).

Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is one of the leading causes of hospital admissions for gastrointestinal diseases, with a rising incidence worldwide. Intestinal microbiota dysbiosis caused by SAP exacerbates systemic inflammatory response syndrome and organ dysfunction. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has emerged as a promising therapeutic option for gastrointestinal diseases.
