Article Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is a chronic bacterial disease, as well as a complex immune disease. The occurrence, development, and prognosis of TB are not only related to the pathogenicity of (), but also related to the patient's own immune state. The research and development of immunotherapy drugs can effectively regulate the body's anti-TB immune responses, inhibit or eliminate , alleviate pathological damage, and facilitate rehabilitation. This paper reviews the research progress of immunotherapeutic compounds for TB, including immunoregulatory compounds and repurposing drugs, and points out the existing problems and future research directions, which lays the foundation for studying new agents for host-directed therapies of TB.

Mycoplasma synoviae (MS) is a wall-less pathogen primarily transmitted through the respiratory tract, causing synovitis and airsacculitis in poultry, which leads to substantial economic losses in the poultry industry. China has a long-standing tradition of Chinese medicine with abundant medicinal resources, renowned for its safety, efficacy, and holistic regulatory effects. This study aims to screen a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) compound with anti-inflammatory and immunoregulatory properties and preliminarily validate its in vitro efficacy against MS infections.

Article Synopsis
- Ongoing outbreaks of various viral infections highlight the urgent need for new antiviral compounds, with a focus on immunomodulatory drugs due to the immunotoxic properties of many viruses.
- A synthetic compound related to indole-3-carboxylic acid derivatives (referred to as XXV) has been developed, demonstrating antiviral and interferon-inducing activities in a macrophage-like cell model.
- The study utilized real-time PCR to show that XXV significantly stimulates the expression of toll-like receptors, interferons, and cytokines, indicating its role as an activator of innate immunity and its potential in fighting viral pathogens.

As cold-blooded organisms living in damp and dark environments, amphibians have evolved robust defense mechanisms to protect themselves from predators and infections. Among the wide repertoire of bioactive compounds they produce are antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which are required as part of innate immunity. One important class of AMPs is cathelicidins, known for their broad-spectrum activity against pathogens and their immunoregulatory roles.
