CXCL13 is a chemokine that plays an important role in the regulation and development of secondary lymphoid organs. CXCL13 is also involved in the regulation of pathological processes, particularly inflammatory responses, of many diseases. The function of CXCL13 varies depending on the condition of the host. In a healthy condition, CXCL13 is mainly secreted by mouse stromal cells or human follicular helper T cells, whereas in diseases conditions, they are produced by human peripheral helper T cells and macrophages in non-lymphoid tissues; this is termed ectopic expression of CXCL13. Ectopic CXCL13 expression is involved in the pathogenesis of various immune-mediated inflammatory diseases as it regulates the migration of B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, and other immune cells in inflammatory sites as well as influences the expression of inflammatory factors. Additionally, ectopic expression of CXCL13 plays a key role in ectopic lymphoid organ formation. In this review, we focused on the sources of CXCL13 in different conditions and its regulatory mechanisms in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, providing novel ideas for further research on targeting CXCL13 for the treatment of immune-mediated inflammatory diseases.

Background & Aims: The combination of atezolizumab and bevacizumab (atezo+bev) is the current standard of care for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), providing a median overall survival (OS) of 19.2 months. Here, we aim to uncover the underlying cellular processes driving clinical benefit versus resistance to atezo+bev.

Background: SARS-CoV-2 has been associated with a higher proportion of asymptomatic infections and lower mortality in sub-Saharan Africa than high-income countries. However, there is currently a lack of data on cellular immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 in people living in Africa compared with people in high-income regions of the world. We aimed to assess geographical variation in peripheral and mucosal immune responses.

The healthcare system in the United States (US) is complex and often fragmented across national and regional health plans which exhibit substantial variability in benefit design and formulary policies for accessing medications. We propose an access-focused value assessment framework for formulary decision-making for medications to manage immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), where patients are at the center of this framework. Formulary decision-making for IMID medications can be a challenging, even daunting, task with continuously evolving and enhanced treat-to-target goals.
