Background: Lung adenocarcinomas (LUAD) is the most common histological subtype of lung cancers. Tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) is involved in tumorigeneses, progressions, and metastases. This study is aimed to develop a robust immune-related signature of LUAD.
Methods: A total of 1774 LUAD cases sourced from public databases were included in this study. Immune scores were calculated through ESTIMATE algorithm and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was applied to identify immune-related genes. Stability selections and Lasso COX regressions were implemented to construct prognostic signatures. Validations and comparisons with other immune-related signatures were conducted in independent Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) cohorts. Abundant infiltrated immune cells and pathway enrichment analyses were carried out, respectively, through ImmuCellAI and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA).
Results: In Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) LUAD cohorts, immune scores of higher levels were significantly associated with better prognoses (P < .05). Yellow (n = 270) and Blue (n = 764) colored genes were selected as immune-related genes, and after univariate Cox regression analysis (P < .005), a total of 133 genes were screened out for subsequent model constructions. A four-gene signature (ARNTL2, ECT2, PPIA, and TUBA4A) named IPSLUAD was developed through stability selection and Lasso COX regression. It was suggested by multivariate and subgroup analyses that IPSLUAD was an independent prognostic factor. It was suggested by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis that eight out of nine patients in high-risk groups had significantly worse prognoses in validation data sets (P < .05). IPSLUAD outperformed other signatures in two independent cohorts.
Conclusions: A robust immune-related prognostic signature with great performances in multiple LUAD cohorts was developed in this study.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the results of combination therapy involving bone grafting and two different resorbable collagen membranes in 1-, 2- and 3-wall infrabony defects.
Methods: A total of 174 patients with infrabony defects (≥ 7 mm periodontal probing depth) were randomized to receive deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) with either a native porcine non-crosslinked collagen membrane (N-CM, control, n = 87) or a novel porcine crosslinked collagen membrane (C-CM, test, n = 87). Clinical parameters, including periodontal probing depth (PPD), clinical attachment level (CAL), and gingival recession (GR), were recorded at baseline, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks.

This study aimed to evaluate alternative in vivo treatment trials using natural products for ectoparasitic infestation on Nile tilapia; these two products were not previously used in the treatment of parasitic fish diseases. So, a total of 400 Oreochromis niloticus (O. niloticus) fish measured 10-15 cm in length; 350 from a fish farm in (Kafr Elsheikh and 50 from Nile River (Al Bahr Al Aazam), Egypt.

Mitophagy, the selective degradation of mitochondria by autophagy, plays a crucial role in cancer progression and therapy response. This study aims to elucidate the role of mitophagy-related genes (MRGs) in cutaneous melanoma (CM) through single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and machine learning approaches, ultimately developing a predictive model for patient prognosis. The scRNA-seq data, bulk transcriptomic data, and clinical data of CM were obtained from publicly available databases.

The Burro de Miranda is an endangered donkey breed. The dynamics of the immune system of the donkey's reproductive tract are essential to manage the fertility of these animals for the improvement and survival of the species. In mares, high numbers of immune cells infiltrating the endometrium promote endometrosis, which is still to be confirmed in jennies.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease, and TL1A and its receptor DR3 play important roles in its pathogenesis. Th9 cells are involved in RA development. Dioscin from Dioscorea nipponica (DDN) has a therapeutic effect on RA, but its effect on TL1A/DR3 and Th9 cells remains unclear.
