The murine model was developed to assess the effects of maternally transferred HIV hyperimmune globulin or human intravenous immune globulin on the immunization of the offspring at 18-21 days of age with rgp 120SF2-complete Freund's adjuvant. Either HIV hyperimmune globulin or intravenous immune globulin was administered intraperitoneally to post-partum BALB/c mice and was transferred via milk to the offspring. Both HIV hyperimmune globulin and intravenous immune globulin inhibited the offspring anti-rgp 120SF2 IgG response to the vaccine. The HIV hyperimmune globulin inhibition persisted for 28 days after immunization while the intravenous immune globulin inhibition was still present at 63 days after immunization. In addition, the intravenous immune globulin had a more generalized immunosuppressive effect, inhibiting the IgG response to both rpg 120SF2 and an additional protein antigen, hen egg-white lysozyme. Effects of maternal or exogenously administered pre-existing antibody, including control antibodies (intravenous immune globulin), on the newborn response to HIV and other vaccines must be carefully evaluated when vaccine studies proceed in newborns.

Background: Cardiovascular diseases and cancer are leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Patients with malignancies are at increased risk for cardiovascular complications including acute coronary syndromes, chemotherapy or radiation therapy related complications and cardiac metastasis.
Case Summary: We present a case of a 47-year-old female with metastatic cancer on immunotherapy presented with anterior ST elevation myocardial infarction followed by emergent percutaneous coronary intervention in the left anterior descending artery.

Introduction: Mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) patients often have myositis, however, myopathological and clinical data for MCTD are limited. Recent reports have shown that the pathology of MCTD myositis resembles that of immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM), whereas earlier reports described perifascicular atrophy or inflammatory infiltrates predominantly in the perivascular region in MCTD myositis. We aim to describe the clinical and myopathological features of MCTD myositis.

Tarlatamab is a bispecific T-cell engager immunotherapy targeting delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3) and the cluster of differentiation 3 (CD3) molecule. In the phase 2 DeLLphi-301 trial of tarlatamab for patients with previously treated small cell lung cancer, tarlatamab 10 mg every 2 weeks achieved durable responses and encouraging survival outcomes. Analyses of updated safety data from the DeLLphi-301 trial demonstrated that the most common treatment-emergent adverse events were cytokine release syndrome (53%), pyrexia (38%), decreased appetite (36%), dysgeusia (32%), and an emia (30%).

mRNA-based protein replacement therapy has become one of the most widely applied forms of mRNA therapy, with lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) being extensively studied as efficient delivery platforms for mRNA. However, existing LNPs tend to accumulate in the liver or kidneys after intravenous injection, highlighting the need to develop vectors capable of targeting specific organs. In this study, we synthesized a small library of ionizable lipids and identified PPz-2R as a promising candidate, exhibiting lung-targeting capabilities, high mRNA transfection efficiency, and good stability through structure-activity relationship studies.
