Neutrophil death can transpire via diverse pathways and is regulated by interactions with commensal and pathogenic microorganisms, environmental exposures, and cell age. At steady state, neutrophil turnover and replenishment are continually maintained via a delicate balance between host-mediated responses and microbial forces. Disruptions in this equilibrium directly impact neutrophil numbers in circulation, cell trafficking, antimicrobial defenses, and host well-being. How neutrophils meet their end is physiologically important and can result in different immunologic consequences. Whereas nonlytic forms of neutrophil death typically elicit anti-inflammatory responses and promote healing, pathways ending with cell membrane rupture may incite deleterious proinflammatory responses, which can exacerbate local tissue injury, lead to chronic inflammation, or precipitate autoimmunity. This review seeks to provide a contemporary analysis of mechanisms of neutrophil death.

Background: The Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2015 measures diet quality and is associated with a lower risk of death from chronic disease. Dietary components may affect health via multiple mechanisms, including by decreasing inflammation and affecting immune activation.
Objective: We hypothesized that the overall HEI-2015 score, or individual component scores, would be associated with altered inflammation and immune activation in healthy adults.

Background: CMG901 is a novel first-in-class antibody-drug conjugate with a humanised anticlaudin 18.2 antibody linked to microtubule-disrupting agent monomethyl auristatin E. We aimed to assess the antitumour activity and safety of CMG901 in patients with advanced gastric or gastro-oesophageal junction cancer and other solid tumours.

Background: Cohort studies report inconsistent associations between body mass index (BMI) and all-cause incident dementia. Furthermore, evidence on fat distribution and body composition measures are scarce and few studies estimated the association between early life adiposity and dementia risk.
Method: 322,336 individuals of European ancestry were included in the main analysis after exluding people with baseline dementia, who are younger than 50 years old and who are non-white.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is characterized by a poor prognosis globally. PAX-interacting protein 1 (PAXIP1) serves a key role in the development of numerous human cancer types. Nevertheless, its specific involvement in HCC remains poorly understood.

Background: Estimated glucose disposal rate (eGDR), is an index of insulin resistance. It is intimately correlated with inflammation and endothelial dysfunction, both of which are contributory factors in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and premature mortality. This study aims to explore the correlation between eGDR and both all-cause and CVD-related mortality in adults with metabolic syndrome (MetS).
