BackgroundHashimoto’s Thyroiditis (HT) is the leading cause of primary hypothyroidism, characterized by progressive thyroid follicular cell (TFC) loss and diffuse lymphocytic infiltration. While apoptosis dominates TFC death in HT, the role of pro-infl…
Bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin (BEP) remains the cornerstone of curative first-line treatment for metastatic germ cell tumors (GCTs) across all prognostic risk groups. Although etoposide-cisplatin (EP) and etoposide-ifosfamide-cisplatin (VIP) are …
BackgroundThe coexistence of primary Sjögren’s disease (pSS) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is not uncommon, but its immunological characteristics and treatment patterns remain poorly defined. This study aimed to compare the immune profiles and therapeu…
BackgroundVγ9Vδ2 T cells constitute the predominant human circulating γδ T cell subset and serve as key mediators of anti-mycobacterial immunity through major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-unrestricted phosphoantigen recognition and rapid effector a…
ObjectiveThis study aimed to assess the long-term results of the watch-and-wait (W&W) strategy in patients with clinical stage II/III mismatch repair deficiency (dMMR) or microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) colorectal cancer (CRC) who received neoa…
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-bound particles secreted by diverse cell types and mediate intercellular communication through the transfer of proteins, RNAs, lipids, metabolites and other biomolecules. EVs participate in multiple physiologic…
IntroductionChronic rejection remains a major barrier to long-term survival after renal transplantation. However, our understanding of the transcriptional programs and metabolic alterations that shape the functions of human kidney cell populations duri…
Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is the primary immunological obstacle limiting long-term survival in heart transplant recipients. Driven by donor-specific antibodies (DSA), AMR damages graft microvasculature through multiple pathways, including compl…
Pigs are attracting increasing attention as a large-animal model with translational relevance in biomedical research. They share several immunological similarities with humans, although the pig immune system has not been fully characterized yet, also a…
