Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), encompassing ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD), represents a group of chronic, relapsing intestinal inflammatory disorders with incompletely understood etiology. Depression and anxiety, as prevalent psyc…
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the loss of immune tolerance, leading to the production of autoantibodies and widespread organ damage. Th1, Th2, and Th17 cytokines play critical roles in driving inflammation…
Sepsis remains a leading cause of critical illness worldwide. Despite advances in supportive care, durable benefit from immune-directed therapies is limited, reflecting heterogeneity with immune low-response states (‘immunoparalysis’) across innate and…
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) evolves within a chronic inflammatory renal niche, where angiogenesis, metabolism, and immune programs synergize to reshape the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME). Recurrent renal damage and tissue hypoxia sustain NF-κB/STA…
Sepsis is a life-threatening syndrome marked by uncontrolled systemic inflammation, cytokine storm, and organ dysfunction. Central to its pathogenesis is innate immune hyperactivation, which triggers excessive cytokine release and inflammatory cell dea…
RNA epigenetic modifications critically regulate gene expression, with 5-methylcytosine (m5C) emerging as an important mark in cancer biology. NSUN2, a key m5C methyltransferase, modifies diverse RNA species, thereby influencing RNA stability, processi…
The inflammatory microenvironment formed by chronic inflammation is not only a major risk factor for cancer but also a well-recognized precursor to bladder cancer. However, the immunological transitions that occur along the inflammation-to-cancer conti…
Colorectal cancer (CRC), particularly the immunologically “cold” microsatellite-stable (MSS) subtype, remains profoundly resistant to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are rapidly emerging as a transformative therapeutic mod…
After solid organ transplantation, antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is the most important cause of late allograft loss. Central in this process are donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) targeting mismatched Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) on recipient endot…
Regulatory T cell (Treg) therapies are emerging as powerful tools for treating autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, preventing graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), and promoting organ transplant tolerance. Building on the identification of chimeric antig…
