Tumor microenvironment (TME) is composed of diverse cell types whose interactions, both direct and indirect, significantly influence tumorigenesis and therapeutic outcomes. Within TME, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced by various cells and exhibit a dual role: moderate ROS levels promote tumor initiation and progression, whereas excessive levels induce cancer cell death, influencing the efficacy of anticancer therapies. Inflammasomes, cytosolic multiprotein complexes, are pivotal in multiple stages of tumorigenesis and play a crucial role in establishing the inflammatory TME.

Background: Wolbachia is an endosymbiont bacterium known to stimulate host immunity against arboviruses and protozoa. Côte d'Ivoire is in a malaria-endemic region, and has experienced several dengue epidemics in recent decades as well. In order to help reduce the transmission of pathogens by mosquito vectors, we studied the prevalence of Wolbachia and the distribution of Cytoplasmic incompatibility factors (Cif) genes in different mosquito species caught in the wild in Cote d'Ivoire.

Background And Aim: Creeping fat (CF) in Crohn's disease (CD) is characterized by hyperplastic mesenteric adipose tissue (MAT) encasing fibrotic intestinal segments. CF exhibits disruptions in microbiota and lipid metabolism, particularly in lysophospholipids (LPC). This study aims to elucidate the impact of LPC on adipogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells in CF and its effects on immune defense functions in the differentiated adipocytes.

Introduction: Non-segmental vitiligo (NSV) is an autoimmune condition characterized by melanocyte loss. While skin-specific mechanisms are well-studied, systemic immune dysregulation contributing to NSV pathogenesis remains unclear.
Objective: This study employs a multi-omic single-cell approach to investigate circulating immune cells in NSV, integrating transcriptional and chromatin accessibility data.

With the increase in the elderly population worldwide, the number of subjects suffering from tuberculosis (TB) has shown an increased prevalence in this group. Immunosenescence is essential in this phenomenon because it may reactivate the lesions and render their adaptive immunity dysfunctional. In addition, inflammation in the lungs of the elderly subjects is also dysfunctional.
