Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play a crucial physiological role in the pancreatic tumor microenvironment. However, the role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in TAMs within pancreatic tumors remains unclear. By lncRNA sequencing between TAMs and resident macrophages from normal tissues in pancreatic cancer, it is found that H19 is highly expressed in TAMs and is correlated with the prognosis and stages of pancreatic cancer.

Food Allergy in Children in China.

Clin Exp Allergy

December 2024

Department of Paediatrics, Faculty of Medicine, Prince of Wales Hospital, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China.

The prevalence of food allergies in China seems to be increasing, but there are limited studies describing the pattern of food allergies across the country. This review highlights regional variations observed across China, with data indicating a higher prevalence in the more economically developed eastern and southern coastal regions compared to inland areas. Egg and milk are the most common allergies among children under 3 years old; for children above 3 years old, specific food allergens also show regional differences, with shellfish allergies being more common in southern and eastern coastal areas, while wheat and fruit allergies are more prevalent in northern regions.
