Obesity is a global health crisis that is closely interrelated to many chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes. This review provides an in-depth analysis of specific chemokines involved in the development of obesity, including C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2), CCL3, CCL5, CCL7, C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 (CXCL8), CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL14, and XCL1 (lymphotactin). These chemokines exacerbate the symptoms of obesity by either promoting the inflammatory response or by influencing metabolic pathways and recruiting immune cells. Additionally, the research highlights the positive effect of exercise on modulating chemokine expression in the obese state. Notably, it explores the potential effects of both aerobic exercises and combined aerobic and resistance training in lowering levels of inflammatory mediators, reducing insulin resistance, and improving metabolic health. These findings suggest new strategies for obesity intervention through the modulation of chemokine levels by exercise, providing fresh perspectives and directions for the treatment of obesity and future research.

Poor oral health is an independent risk factor for upper-aerodigestive tract cancers, including esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC); thus, good oral health may reduce the risk of ESCC. We previously reported that high expression of Toll-like receptor (TLR) 6, which recognizes peptidoglycan (PGN) from Gram-positive bacteria correlates with a good prognosis after esophagectomy for ESCC. Most beneficial bacteria in the mouth are Gram-positive.

Background: Lung transplantation is the only effective therapeutic option for patients with end-stage lung disease. However, ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) during transplantation is a leading cause of primary graft dysfunction (PGD). Ferroptosis, a form of iron-dependent cell death driven by lipid peroxidation, has been implicated in IRI across various organs.

This remarkable feat is achieved through intricate host-pathogen interactions in immune cell aggregates called granulomas, wherein find favorable cellular niches to exploit while the host limits its expansion and tissue dissemination. Here, using a mouse model of persistent infection, we identify a host-protective role of eosinophils in control of Typhimurium ( Tm) infection within the mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN), the main lymphoid tissue of Tm persistence.

Theranostics of nuclear medicine refers to the combination of radionuclide imaging and internal irradiation therapy, which is currently a research hotspot and an important direction for the future development of nuclear medicine. Radiopharmaceutical is a vital component of nuclear medicine and serves as one of the fundamental pillars of molecular imaging and precision medicine. At present, a variety of radiopharmaceuticals have been developed for various targets such as fibroblast activation protein (FAP), prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2), C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4), human epidermal growth factor-2 (HER2), and integrin αvβ, and some of them have been successfully applied in clinical practice.
