Background: Asthma is a prevalent chronic obstructive disease of the airways.
Aims: The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between asthma and IL-17F gene 74488 T > C, IL-17A gene -197G > A, and IL17A gene -737C > T polymorphisms in Turkish population.
Methods: In our study, peripheral blood samples collected from a total of 127 subjects, with 65 in the patient group and 62 in the control group, were analyzed for IL-17F gene 74488 T > C, IL-17A gene -197G > A, and IL17A gene -737C > T polymorphisms using next-generation sequencing.
Results: There was no statistically significant relationship between IL-17A gene -197G > A and IL-17A gene -737C > T polymorphisms and the risk of developing asthma. It was found that the risk of developing asthma was 2.9-fold higher in individuals with a C allele in the IL-17F gene 7488 T > C polymorphic site than the individuals with a T allele. It was shown that ATT and GCT haplotype carriers had a greater disease risk compared with the GTT haplotype carriers.
Conclusions: In conclusion, IL-17F gene 7488 T > C polymorphism was found to be associated with asthma in the Turkish population. The IL-17 gene should be further investigated as a potential candidate gene in predicting asthma susceptibility and in the treatment of asthma.

Transcriptomic Profiles in Nasal Epithelium and Asthma Endotypes in Youth.
JAMA
January 2025
Division of Pediatric Pulmonary Medicine, UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Importance: T helper 2 (T2) cells and T helper 17 (T17) cells are CD4+ T cell subtypes involved in asthma. Characterizing asthma endotypes based on these cell types in diverse groups is important for developing effective therapies for youths with asthma.
Objective: To identify asthma endotypes in school-aged youths aged 6 to 20 years by examining the distribution and characteristics of transcriptomic profiles in nasal epithelium.

Objective: He Shi Yu Lin Formula (HSYLF) is a clinically proven prescription for treating premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), and has shown a good curative effect. However, its molecular mechanisms are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms of HSYLF and clarify how network pharmacology analysis guides the design of animal experiments, including the selection of effective treatment doses and key targets, to ensure the relevance of the experimental results.

Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) functions as a surfactant, while nano-titanium dioxide (nano-TiO) serves as an antibacterial agent. These substances are extensively utilized in industrial production and, upon release into aquatic environments, pose significant threats to the viability and development of marine organisms. However, research into the effects of PFOA and nano-TiO on the immune functions and cellular energy allocation (CEA) of bivalves remains limited.

Lung cancer is among the most common instances of cancer subtypes and is associated with high mortality rates. Due to the availability of fewer therapies and delayed clinical investigations, the number of cancer incidences is rising dramatically. This is possibly an effect of immune modulations and chemotherapeutic drugs that raises cancer resistance.
