Fungal spores are abundant in the environment and a major cause of asthma. Originally characterised as a type 2 inflammatory disease, allergic airway inflammation that underpins asthma can also involve type 17 inflammation, which can exacerbate disease causing failure of treatments tailored to inhibit type 2 factors. However, the mechanisms that determine the host response to fungi, which can trigger both type 2 and type 17 inflammation in allergic airway disease, remain unclear.

Recently, combination checkpoint therapy of cancer has been recognized as producing additive as opposed to synergistic benefit due in part to positively correlated effects. The potential for uncorrelated or negatively correlated therapies to produce true synergistic benefits has been noted. Whereas the inhibitory receptors PD-1, CTLA-4, TIM-3, LAG-3, and TIGIT have been collectively characterized as exhaustion receptors, another inhibitory receptor KLRG1 was historically characterized as a senescent receptor and received relatively little attention as a potential checkpoint inhibitor target.

Acute liver failure (ALF) is a life-threatening condition that occurs when the liver sustains severe damage and rapidly loses its function. The primary cause of ALF is the overdose of acetaminophen (APAP), and its treatment is relatively limited. The involvement of the complement system in the development of ALF has been implicated.

In this study, we selected , one of the primary insect pests of alfalfa, as the experimental insect and infected it with . Transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses were conducted to explore alterations in gene expression and metabolic processes in at 48, 96, and 144 h post infection with . The transcriptomic analysis unveiled that infection boosted immune responses in tubercula, affecting carbohydrate metabolism, cytochrome P450 activity, lysosome function, apoptosis regulation, phagosome formation, glutathione metabolism, amino acid metabolism, and pathogen response pathways.
