The appearance of dual-marked (D) lymphocytes, i.e. lymphocytes having both T and B markers, was investigated in patients with acute (ALL) and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) as well as with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). E-rosette and immunobead-rosette techniques were combined and simultaneously administered, and the combination was found to be simple, fast and reproducible. D cells could be detected also in normal peripheral blood, however, only in a low percentage. In the blood of 4 patients suffering from ALL, in 2 with CLL and in 1 with NHL the number of D cells were increased significantly. In ALL the relative number of these cells decreased during remission and increased in relapses; thus the determination of the relative frequency of D cells might have prognostic value and could be useful in the choice of an optimal therapeutic protocol.

Patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) may develop depression, which can affect their rehabilitation. However, the underlying mechanism of depression in SCI patients remains unclear. Previous studies have revealed increased p38 MAPK phosphorylation in the rat hippocampus after SCI, accompanied by depression-like behaviors.

ConspectusIons are the crucial signaling components for living organisms. In cells, their transportation across pore-forming membrane proteins is vital for regulating physiological functions, such as generating ionic current signals in response to target molecule recognition. This ion transport is affected by confined interactions and local environments within the protein pore.

Background: Exogenous Cushing's syndrome, which results from prolonged glucocorticoid treatment, is associated with metabolic abnormalities. Previously, we reported the inhibitory effect of tonsil-derived mesenchymal stem cell conditioned medium (T-MSC CM) on glucocorticoid signal transduction. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic efficacy of T-MSCs in a mouse model of exogenous Cushing's syndrome.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is characterized by the progressive, autoimmune-mediated destruction of β cells. As such, restoring immunoregulation early in the disease course is sought to retain endogenous insulin production. Nevertheless, in the more than 100 years since the discovery of insulin, treatment of T1DM has focused primarily on hormone replacement and glucose monitoring.

Aplastic anemia (AA) is a life-threatening bone marrow failure syndrome. The advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has shed light on the link between somatic mutations (SM) and the efficacy of immunosuppressive therapy (IST) in AA patients. However, the relationship between SM and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has not been extensively explored.
