The levels of leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor-1 (LAIR-1), a type I transmembrane glycoprotein broadly expressed on the majority of hematopoietic cells, such as T/B cells and natural killer cells, vary significantly during cell differentiation and activation. Previous studies focused mainly on the role of LAIR-1 in physiology and some pathological conditions, including autoimmune diseases. It has been shown that LAIR-1 mediates immune suppression, further resulting in uncontrolled inflammation. Furthermore, recent studies showed that LAIR-1 participates in the development of hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic tumors as well as malaria. This review summarizes the current findings on LAIR-1 in various diseases, its potential roles in pathogenesis, and provides new insight into the treatment of patients through suppression of the function of LAIR-1.

Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has revolutionized the treatment of various hematological malignancies. Recently, CAR-T has been used in refractory auto-immune diseases with initial encouraging results. In this systematic review, we examined the safety and efficacy of CAR-T in patients with refractory auto-immune diseases.

Psoriasis is a noncontagious, autoimmune chronic inflammatory disease with an unknown root cause. It is classified as a multifactorial and chronic skin disorder that also affects the immune system and is genetic. Environmental factors such as stress, infections, and injuries all play an important role in the disease's development.

Background: Anticoagulants increase the risk of cardiac tamponade in patients with pericardial effusion (PE). Therefore, inappropriate administration of them in the presence of PE can lead to a catastrophic outcome. This study presents a patient with a provisional misdiagnosis of venous thromboembolism (VTE).

Crisdesalazine alleviates inflammation in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis multiple sclerosis mouse model by regulating the immune system.

Microglia/macrophages participate in the development of and recovery from experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), and the macrophage M1 (pro-inflammatory)/M2 (anti-inflammatory) phase transition is involved in EAE disease progression. We evaluated the efficacy of crisdesalazine (a novel microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase-1 inhibitor) in an EAE model, including its immune-regulating potency in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophages, and its neuroprotective effects in a macrophage-neuronal co-culture system. Crisdesalazine significantly alleviated clinical symptoms, inhibited inflammatory cell infiltration and demyelination in the spinal cord, and altered the phase of microglial/macrophage and regulatory T cells.
