The roles of innate immune cells, including eosinophils, basophils, and group 2 innate lymphoid cells, in atopic dermatitis (AD) have been well-documented, whereas that of monocytes, another component of the innate immunity, remains rather poorly understood, thus necessitating the topic of this study. In addition, cytokines and cellular pathways needed for the resolution of type 2 inflammation in AD need further investigation. Using a murine AD model, we report here that (i) Ly6C monocytes were rapidly recruited to the AD lesion in a CCR2-dependent manner, blockade of which exacerbated AD; (ii) type I IFN production is profoundly involved in this suppression because the blockade of it by genetic depletion or antibody neutralization exacerbated AD; and (iii) Ly6C monocytes operate through the production of type I IFN because Ly6C monocytes from Irf7-null mice, which lack type I IFN production, failed to rescue Ccr2 mice from severe AD upon adoptive transfer. In addition, in vitro studies demonstrated type I IFN suppressed basophil expansion from bone marrow progenitor cells and survival of mature basophils. Collectively, our work suggests that Ly6C monocytes are the first and dominant inflammatory cells reaching AD lesions that negatively regulate type 2 inflammation through the production of type I IFN.

Analysis of differential gene expression of PBMC for the in vitro detection of drug sensitization.

Background: The detection of drug-specific activation of T cells in the lymphocyte transformation test (LTT) is mainly based on cell proliferation or cytokine secretion. However, the LTT presents with a varying sensitivity and specificity. The aim of our study was to analyse the genome wide gene expression of PBMC to identify drug allergy-specific gene regulation patterns.

Background: Dermatomyositis is a chronic autoimmune disease with distinctive cutaneous eruptions and muscle weakness, and the pathophysiology is characterised by type I interferon (IFN) dysregulation. This study aims to assess the efficacy, safety, and target engagement of dazukibart, a potent, selective, humanised IgG1 neutralising monoclonal antibody directed against IFNβ, in adults with moderate-to-severe dermatomyositis.

Methods: This multicentre, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, phase 2 trial was conducted at 25 university-based hospitals and outpatient sites in Germany, Hungary, Poland, Spain, and the USA.

Viral infections trigger inflammasome-mediated caspase-1 activation. Nevertheless, limited understanding exists regarding how viruses use the active caspase-1 to evade host immune response. Here, we use porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) as a model of coronaviruses (CoVs) to illustrate the intricate regulation of CoVs to combat IFN-I signaling and pyroptosis.

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.
