Exosome-shuttled miR-150–5p from LPS-preconditioned mesenchymal stem cells down-regulate PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway via Irs1 to enhance M2 macrophage polarization and confer protection against sepsis
RationaleSepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction and lack of effective measures in the current. Exosomes from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) reported to alleviate inflammation during sepsis, and the preconditioning of MSCs could enhance their par…
Acute kidney injury in critical care: complications of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an immune dysfunction characterized by an exaggerated and pathological inflammatory response, potentially leading to systemic inflammatory reactions and multiple-organ failure, including renal involvement. HL…
Endocytosis at the maternal-fetal interface: balancing nutrient transport and pathogen defense
Endocytosis represents a category of regulated active transport mechanisms. These encompass clathrin-dependent and -independent mechanisms, as well as fluid phase micropinocytosis and macropinocytosis, each demonstrating varying degrees of specificity …
From diversity to disease: unravelling the role of enteric glial cells
Enteric glial cells (EGCs) are an essential component of the enteric nervous system (ENS) and play key roles in gastrointestinal development, homeostasis, and disease. Derived from neural crest cells, EGCs undergo complex differentiation processes regu…
Joint DNA-RNA-based NGS for diagnosis and treatment of a rare CD47-MET fusion lung adenocarcinoma which was immunoresistant and savoltinib-sensitive: a case report
Targeted therapy and immunotherapy are both important in the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Accurate diagnose and precise treatment are key in achieving long survival of patients. MET fusion is a rare oncogenic factor, whose optimal d…
Galectin-9 as an indicator of functional limitations and radiographic joint damage in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
BackgroundPrevious studies have revealed that Galectin-9 (Gal-9) acts as an apoptosis modulator in autoimmunity and rheumatic inflammation. In the present study, we investigated the potential role of Gal-9 as a biomarker in patients with rheumatoid art…
Effectiveness of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy on bone metastases in non-small-cell lung cancer
BackgroundBone metastases (BoMs) are prevalent in patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) however, there are limited data detailing how BoMs respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). The purpose of this study was to compare th…
