A c-type lectin with dual function of immunology and mineralization from the freshwater oyster ( Lea).
Front Immunol
January 2025
Key Laboratory of Freshwater Aquatic Genetic Resources, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, Shanghai Ocean University, Shanghai, China.
Background: Shell and pearl formation in bivalves is a sophisticated biomineralization process that encompasses immunological and mineralization aspects, particularly during shell repair and the initial stages of pearl cultivation when a nucleus is inserted. Here, we describe a novel C-type lectin, HcLec1, isolated and characterized from the freshwater pearl mussel Lea.
Methods: Immune challenge, RNA interference (RNAi) experiments, ELISA, and antibacterial assays were employed to investigate the role of HcLec1 in innate immunity.
Specific immune response to and ability to control mycobacterial replication are not impaired in subjects with immune-mediated inflammatory disease and tuberculosis infection.
Front Immunol
January 2025
Translational Research Unit, National Institute for Infectious Diseases Lazzaro Spallanzani-IRCCS, Rome, Italy.
Background: Subjects with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMID), such as rheumatoid arthritis, with tuberculosis infection (TBI), have a high probability of progressing to tuberculosis disease (TB). We aim to characterize the impact of IMID on the immune response to (Mtb) in patients with TBI and TB disease.
Methods: We enrolled TBI and TB patients with and without IMID.
Socioeconomic status has direct impact on asthma control: Turkish adult asthma registry.
Clin Transl Allergy
January 2025
University of Health Sciences, Yedikule Chest Diseases and Thoracic Surgery Training and Research Hospital, Department of Chest Diseases, Istanbul, Turkey.
Background: Asthma is one of the most common causes of chronic respiratory disease, and countries with low socioeconomic status have both a high prevalence of asthma and asthma-related death.
Objective: In this study, we aimed to determine socioeconomic levels of asthmatic patients according to a national database and investigate the effects of social markers on disease control in our region.
Methods: This is an analysis of data from 2053 adult asthma patients from a multicentre chart study in Turkey.
[Expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of neurobrucellosis (2025 edition)].
Zhonghua Yi Xue Za Zhi
February 2025
Neurobrucellosis is a neurological disorder caused by Brucella infection. It typically occurs as part of the multisystem involvement of brucellosis, or may also present as brucellosis. The existing clinical practice guidelines and expert consensus on human brucellosis are outdated and provide limited guidance specific to the diagnosis and management of neurobrucellosis, failing to meet the evolving needs of healthcare providers and patients.

Crit Rev Oncol Hematol
January 2025
College of Life Science, Yangtze University, Jingzhou 434025, China. Electronic address:
Cellular senescence, a hallmark of aging, has emerged as a captivating area of research in tumor immunology with profound implications for cancer prevention and treatment. In the tumor microenvironment, senescent cells exhibit a dual role, simultaneously hindering tumor development through collaboration with immune cells and evading immune cell attacks by upregulating immunoinhibitory proteins. However, the intricate immune escape mechanism of cellular senescence in the tumor microenvironment remains a subject of intense investigation.
