AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The immune system comprises various regulators and effectors that elicit immune responses against various attacks on the body. The pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases is derived from the deregulated expression of cytokines, the major regulators of the immune system. Among cytokines, interleukins have a major influence on immune-mediated diseases. These interleukins initiate the immune response against healthy and normal cells of the body, resulting in immune-mediated disease. The major interleukins in this respect are IL-1, IL-3, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10 and IL-12 which cause immune responses such as excessive inflammation, loss of immune tolerance, altered T-cell differentiation, immune suppression dysfunction, and inflammatory cell recruitment. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune illness characterized by dysregulation of interleukins. These immune responses are the signs of diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis, type I diabetes, and multiple sclerosis.

An Image Processing Tool for Automated Quantification of Bacterial Burdens in Zebrafish Larvae.
Zebrafish
December 2024
Department of Medicine, Molecular Immunity Unit, Cambridge Institute of Therapeutic Immunology and Infectious Diseases, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK.
Zebrafish larvae are used to model the pathogenesis of multiple bacteria. This transparent model offers the unique advantage of allowing quantification of fluorescent bacterial burdens (fluorescent pixel counts [FPC]) by facile microscopical methods, replacing enumeration of bacteria using time-intensive plating of lysates on bacteriological media. Accurate FPC measurements require laborious manual image processing to mark the outside borders of the animals so as to delineate the bacteria inside the animals from those in the culture medium that they are in.

Background: Charcoal Rot (CR) poses a significant threat to mung bean crops by reducing yield, making the development of resistant varieties crucial for stable production and food security. This study evaluated 19 newly identified mung bean landraces using biochemical traits and SSR markers, revealing genetic variability, CR disease reactions, and traits influencing yield and resistance, which provide valuable insights for breeding CR-resistant, high-yielding varieties.
Methods And Results: Mung bean landraces were evaluated for their response to CR using 4 biochemical parameters, and 10 SSR markers to assess genetic variability and disease resistance.
Activated kynurenine pathway metabolism by YKL-40 establishes an inhibitory immune microenvironment and drives glioblastoma development.
Cell Mol Life Sci

Shanghai Key Laboratory of Biliary Tract Disease Research, Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, 200092, China.
Background: Glioblastoma (GB) is the stage IV of glioma and mesenchymal GB represents the most common and malignant subtype characterized with elevated expression of a mesenchymal marker YKL-40 and resistance to immune drug therapy. Here, we determined if YKL-40 regulates kynurenine (Kyn) pathway (KP) metabolism that contributes to establishing an immune suppressive microenvironment in GB.
Methods: Tumor cells expressing YKL-40 from GB patients were isolated and activated cellular metabolisms were identified via gene microarray analysis.
Sex differences in the central and peripheral omega 3 oxylipin response to acute systemic inflammation.

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) oxylipins regulate inflammation, and acute systemic inflammation can precipitate cognitive impairment. Females have more HDL and stronger immune responses than males, yet higher dementia risk. Little is known about sex differences in oxylipin responses to inflammatory stimuli and potential crosstalk between acute systemic inflammation and central oxylipin signaling in either sex.

The interception of blood-borne bacteria in the liver defines the outcomes of invasive bacterial infections, but the mechanisms of this antibacterial immunity are not fully understood. This study shows that natural antibodies (nAbs) to capsules enable liver macrophage Kupffer cells (KCs) to rapidly capture and kill blood-borne encapsulated bacteria in mice. Affinity pulldown with serotype-10A capsular polysaccharides (CPS10A) of Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn10A) led to the identification of CPS10A-binding nAbs in serum.
