Obesity exacerbates susceptibility to infectious diseases. We investigated the effects of a high-fat diet (HFD) on intestinal immunity, particularly immunoglobulin (Ig)A-producing cells, B-cell activating factor (BAFF), and a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL) localization. Mice (4- to 20-weeks old) were fed HFD or standard chow diet, and their jejunum and ileum were fixed using the in vivo cryotechnique.

Background: Studies have demonstrated that the gut microbiome-immune system-brain axis plays an important role in neurological disorders. Furthermore, recent studies have shown that the gut microbiota influences the occurrence and progression of anxiety disorders, with potential involvement of immune cells. We aimed to investigate the causal impact of gut microbiota on anxiety disorders and identify potential immune cell mediators.

The interplay between the cytokine network and antipsychotic treatment in schizophrenia remains poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate the impact of psychotropic medications on serum levels of IFN-γ, IL-4, TGF-β1, IL-17, and BAFF, and to explore their relationship with psychopathological features. We recruited 63 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia in the acute phase, all of whom were either drug-naïve or had been drug-free for at least three months.

Neuro-Behçet's disease: an update of clinical diagnosis, biomarkers, and immunopathogenesis.

Clin Exp Immunol

Neuro-Behçet's disease (NBD) is a more severe but rare symptom of Behçet's disease, which is mainly divided into parenchymal NBD (p-NBD) involving brain stem, spinal cord, and cerebral cortex. Non-p-NBD manifests as intracranial aneurysm, cerebral venous thrombosis, peripheral nervous system injuries, and mixed parenchymal and non-parenchymal disease. p-NBD is pathologically characterized by perivasculitis presenting with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pleocytosis, elevated total protein, and central nervous system (CNS) infiltration of macrophages and neutrophils, which are subdivided into acute and chronic progressive stages according to relapsing-remitting courses and responses to steroids.
