Globule leukocyte tumor involving the distal portion of the jejunum and proximal portion of the ileum caused chronic vomiting and weight loss in a 3-year-old cat. The intestinal mass was resected during exploratory laparotomy. The histologic appearance of the mass was characterized by inclusion of numerous intracytoplasmic eosinophilic granules. Similar cells were found in the mesenteric lymph node and were suggestive of metastasis. Tumor recurrence was not detected until 13.5 months after the surgery. The malignant but slow-growing nature of this tumor allowed a disease-free interval that exceeded 1 year, despite incomplete tumor resection.

Article Synopsis
- * MFGs feature a unique structure with a lipid core and a membrane rich in bioactive components that aid in energy release and support immune health in developing gastrointestinal tracts.
- * Research suggests MFGs can be enhanced to address specific nutritional deficiencies while also having potential therapeutic benefits for neurodevelopment and defense against infections.

Article Synopsis
- Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) and milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) show promise as treatments for cow's milk allergy (CMA) by reducing nutrient damage compared to standard methods of milk protein digestion.
- * The study on a mouse model revealed that HMOs and MFGM significantly lowered allergy symptoms and inflammation markers while enhancing intestinal barriers.
- * Their combined effect also improved gut microbiota by increasing beneficial bacteria that produce butyrate, which further helps in reducing allergy-related issues.

Introduction: CD39 plays an important role in the immunoregulation and inhibition of effector cells. It is expressed on immune cells, including Tregs, and on extracellular vesicles (EVs) budding from the plasma membrane. Platelet transfusion may induce alloimmunization against HLA-I antigens, leading to refractoriness to platelet transfusion with severe consequences for patients.

The Omicron BA.5 variant of SARS-CoV-2 is known for its high transmissibility and its capacity to evade immunity provided by vaccine protection against the (original) Wuhan strain. In our prior research, we successfully produced the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in an expression system.

This study aimed to clarify the composition and bioactivity differences between goat and cow milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) protein by proteomic, and the immunomodulatory activity of MFGM proteins was further evaluated by using mouse splenic lymphocytes in vitro. A total of 257 MFGM proteins showed significant differences between goat and cow milk. The upregulated and unique MFGM proteins in goat milk were significantly enriched in the positive regulation of immune response, negative regulation of Interleukin-5 (IL-5) secretion, and involved in nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor signaling.
