Background: Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by persistent erythema, papules, and pustules, mainly on the skin of the face. Rosacea is difficult to treat; therefore, identifying new treatments is crucial. Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor X2 (MRGPRX2)-mediated mast cell (MC) activation is essential in the pathogenesis of rosacea.

Background: Patients with hematological malignancies are at high-risk of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI). Oral vancomycin is a first-line treatment for CDI.

Allergic reactions to foods are primarily driven by allergen-binding immunoglobulin (Ig)E antibodies. IgE-expressing cells can be generated through direct switching from IgM to IgE or a sequential class switching pathway where activated B cells first switch to an intermediary isotype, most frequently IgG1, and then to IgE. It has been proposed that sequential class switch recombination is involved in augmenting the severity of allergic reactions, generating high affinity IgE, differentiation of IgE plasma cells, and in holding the memory of IgE responses.

Neutrophils are short-lived cells of the innate immune system and represent 50-70% of the circulating leucocytes. Their primary role is antimicrobial defence which they accomplish through rapid migration to sites of inflammation followed by phagocytosis, degranulation and the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETosis). While previously considered terminally-differentiated cells, they have been shown to have great adaptability and to play a role in conditions ranging from cancer to autoimmunity.
