Along with central immune organs, the peripheral lymphoepithelial organs of the pharynx are actively involved in protecting the body from infections. Adaptive, or induced, immunity occurs during the postnatal ontogenesis of immunocompetent lymphocytes, which includes the secondary somatic recombination of the V genes with the participation of recombination-activating gene (RAG) and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (Tdt) proteins. This publication discusses the results of detection of Tdt-positive cells in the pharyngeal and palatine tonsils of children of different ages, who had been operated on for adenoid vegetations and chronic tonsillitis. Attention is drawn to the localization of Tdt cells, the level of Tdt expression, an attempt to clarify the phenotype, destination, and place in the diagnostic arrays of functional markers when an adaptive immunity is generated in children.

Citrus fruits are one of the most important fruits in the world, and their seedless character is favored by consumers. WRKY is a plant-specific transcription factor family involved in all aspects of plant growth and development. However, the molecular mechanism of seedless fruit formation in citrus and the role of the WRKY gene family in seed abortion are still poorly understood.

Electrochemical bioassays that rely on sensor interfaces based on immobilized DNA probes often encounter challenges such as complex fabrication processes and limited binding efficiency. In this study, we developed a novel electrochemical bioassay that bypasses the need for probe immobilization by employing a solution-phase nucleic acid reaction to create interfacial barriers on unmodified electrodes, enabling rapid, just-in-time sensor interface formation. Specifically, a 3'-phosphorylated recognition probe was used to identify the target microRNA-21 (miR-21), followed by target recycling facilitated by duplex-specific nuclease (DSN), which resulted in extensive hydrolysis of the recognition probe into DNA fragments with 3'-hydroxyl ends.

Esmolol has been demonstrated to mitigate inflammation damage and T lymphocyte apoptosis in septic cardiomyopathy. It has been established that the activation of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) by cluster of differentiation 4(CD4) T lymphocytes expressing choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) can prevent excessive inflammation and reduce splenocyte apoptosis in septic cardiomyopathy. Given the similar anti-inflammatory effects, we hypothesized that esmolol might be associated with α7 nAChR and thereby exert its cardioprotective functions.

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder characterized by presence of endometrial tissue outside the uterine cavity. Immunohistochemical analysis (IHC) revealed markedly elevated expression of IL6ST in endometrial tissue of patients with ovarian endometriosis. Level of methylation of IL6ST is diminished in patients with endometriosis, whereas level of mRNA expression is markedly elevated by RT-PCR.
