As the first T cell immunoglobulin mucin (Tim) family member to be identified, Tim-3 is a powerful immune checkpoint that functions in immunoregulation and induction of tolerance. Conventionally, Tim-3 is considered to play a role in adaptive immunity, especially in helper T cell-mediated immune responses. As researches progress, Tim-3 has been detected in a wider range of cell types, modulating cell function through ligand-receptor interactions and other pathways.

Background: Community-level social vulnerabilities may affect HIV outcomes. This analysis assessed the association between county-level social vulnerability and CDC-funded HIV testing program outcomes.
Setting: HIV testing data from 60 state and local health departments and 119 community-based organizations were submitted to CDC during 2020-2022.

Background: Persons aged 13-24 years are a priority population in the National HIV/AIDS Strategy. Young adults with HIV have poorer health outcomes-including not being retained in care, antiretroviral nonadherence, and not being virally suppressed-than other persons with HIV.
Setting: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Medical Monitoring Project data collected June 2018 through May 2022.

Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is regarded as a crucial proinflammatory cytokine that controls the migration and entry of macrophages. It has been demonstrated that chemokine ligand 2 and its receptor, Chemokine receptor 2, are both implicated in several liver disorders. In a similar context, immunity mediators are overexpressed and stimulated by MCP-1.

Introduction: The development of a hepatitis E virus (HEV) vaccine is critical, with ORF2 capsid protein as the main target. We previously demonstrated that oral coadministration of recombinant ORF2 with immunomodulatory bacterium-like-particles (IBLP) induces a specific immune response in mice, particularly using IBLP derived from IBL027 (IBLP027), which was effective in eliciting a local humoral response. IBLP are non-live bacteria with adjuvant and carrier properties, serving as a platform for exposing proteins or antigens fused to LysM (lysine motif) domains, protein modules that bind to cell wall polysaccharides like peptidoglycan.
