Dendritic cells (DC) from the synovial inflammatory tissue and peripheral blood of patients with rheumatoid arthritis and from the peripheral blood of normal blood donors were compared with the autologous monocytes for their capacity to produce and release interleukin 1 (IL-1). Synovial DC often spontaneously released higher amounts of IL-1 activity than unstimulated and lipopolysaccharide-stimulated peripheral blood DC and monocytes. The IL-1 production by both DC and monocytes increased after stimulation with bacterial lipopolysaccharide. In contrast with synovial DC the peripheral blood DC from both patients with rheumatoid arthritis and normal controls released less IL-1 activity than peripheral blood monocytes did. Inhibition with an antiserum to IL-1 revealed that IL-1 production is important for the accessory activity of the peripheral blood DC. Thus human DC from inflammatory sites and peripheral blood produce IL-1 activity.

Background: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a typical autoimmune disease characterized by a complex pathogenesis and a strong genetic predisposition. The study of inflammatory response in SLE monocytes is not very clear, and exploring the inflammatory factors of monocytes is beneficial to discover new diagnostic targets.
Results: Using scRNA-seq technology, we obtained the quantitative changes in circulating immune cells and various cellular immune metabolic profiles between SLE patients and healthy volunteers.

Arterial endothelial cells (ECs) reside in a complex biomechanical environment. ECs sense and respond to wall shear stress. Low and oscillatory wall shear stress is characteristic of disturbed flow and commonly found at arterial bifurcations and around atherosclerotic plaques.

Objective: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a monogenetic disorder associated with sustained mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) activation, leading to heterogeneous clinical manifestations. Epilepsy and renal angiomyolipoma are the most important causes of morbidity in adult people with TSC (pwTSC). mTOR is a key player in inflammation, which in turn could influence TSC-related clinical manifestations.

Previous studies in sports science suggested that regular exercise has a positive impact on human health. However, the effects of endurance sports and their underlying mechanisms are still not completely understood. One of the main debates regards the modulation of immune dynamics in high-intensity exercise.
