Whereas clinically apparent atopic dermatitis (AD) can be confirmed by validated diagnostic criteria, the preclinical phenotype of infants who eventually develop AD is less well-characterized. Analogous to unaffected or nonlesional skin in established AD, clinically normal-appearing skin in infants who will develop clinical AD has distinct changes. Prospective studies have revealed insights into this preclinical AD phenotype. In this study, we review the structural, immunologic, and microbiome nature of the preclinical AD phenotype. Determination of markers that predict the development of AD will facilitate targeting of interventions to prevent the development or reduce the severity of AD in infants.

Background & Aims: Hepatocyte transplantation has shown promise for genetic diseases of the hepatocytes but to date has shown limited efficacy for non-genetic forms of severe liver injury. Limited cell engraftment and poor function of donor hepatocytes in recipient livers impacts the clinical utility of hepatocyte cell therapy. The mechanisms underpinning this are poorly understood.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic skin inflammatory ailment commonly observed in young children and adults. Various therapeutic modalities are already explored for mitigation of AD but for prolong application very few modalities are recommended. Considering these challenges, we have successfully developed gliclazide-loaded hydrogels using the physical dispersion method.

Despite the favorable effects of immunotherapies in multiple types of cancers, its complete success in CNS malignancies remains challenging. Recently, a successful clinical trial of cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cell immunotherapy in patients with glioblastoma (GBM) has opened a new avenue for adoptive cellular immunotherapies in CNS malignancies. Prompt from these findings, herein, we investigated whether dendritic cells (DC) in combination with cytokine-induced killer cells (DC-CIK) could also provide an alternative and more effective way to improve the efficacy of GBM treatment.

Lafora disease (LD) is an ultra-rare and still incurable neurodegenerative condition. Although several therapeutic strategies are being explored, including gene therapy, there are currently no treatments that can alleviate the course of the disease and slow its progression. Recently, gliflozins, a series of SGLT2 transporter inhibitors approved for use in type 2 diabetes mellitus, heart failure and chronic kidney disease, have been proposed as possible repositioning drugs for the treatment of LD.

Despite identifying specific CD8 T cell subsets associated with immunotherapy resistance, the molecular pathways driving this process remain elusive. Given the potential role of CD38 in regulating CD8 T cell function, we aimed to investigate the accumulation of CD38CD8 T cells in lung cancer and explore its role in immunotherapy resistance. Phenotypic analysis of tumoral CD8 T cells from both lung cancer patients and immunotherapy-resistant preclinical models revealed that CD38-expressing CD8 T cells consist of CD38 and CD38 subsets.
