Introduction: Levels of plant-based aeroallergens are rising as growing seasons lengthen and intensify with anthropogenic climate change. Increased exposure to pollens could increase risk for mortality from respiratory causes, particularly among older adults. We determined short-term, lag associations of four species classes of pollen (ragweed, deciduous trees, grass pollen and evergreen trees) with respiratory mortality (all cause, chronic and infectious related) in Michigan, USA.

Blood-brain barrier (BBB) disintegration is a key contributor to neuroinflammation; however, the biological processes governing BBB permeability under physiological conditions remain unclear. Here, we investigate the role of NLRP3 inflammasome in BBB disruption following peripheral inflammatory challenges. Repeated intraperitoneal lipopolysaccharide administration causes NLRP3-dependent BBB permeabilization and myeloid cell infiltration into the brain.

Because of the close membrane apposition, there is rapid exclusion of CD45, and therefore LCK activation. Much less is known about whether spatial regulation of the intracellular face dictates LCK activity and TCR signal transduction.

Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery Department, IRCCS Arcispedale Santamaria Nuova, Reggio Emilia, Italy.
Background: Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a complex immunological disease associated with significant morbidity and reduced health-related quality of life. Dupilumab is an anti-T2-inflammatory biological drug registered for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, indicated by integrated care pathways when optimal medico-surgical treatment yields insufficient control of sinonasal symptoms.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to confirm the long-term efficacy of dupilumab in the treatment of severe uncontrolled CRSwNP.
Antigenic determinants underlying IgE-mediated anaphylaxis to peanut.

Background: Studies of human IgE and its targeted epitopes on allergens have been very limited. We have an established method to immortalize IgE encoding B cells from allergic individuals.
Objective: To develop an unbiased and comprehensive panel of peanut-specific human IgE mAbs to characterize key immunodominant antigenic regions and epitopes on peanut allergens to map the molecular interactions responsible for inducing anaphylaxis.
