Four decades into the HIV pandemic, HIV-2 infection remains an underutilized comparative resource for HIV-1 cure research. HIV-2 is associated with lower plasma viral loads, slower CD4+ T-cell decline, and delayed disease progression in many individual…
Sepsis has a high incidence and mortality rate, bringing about a high global burden. Recent research has demonstrated that the S100A8/A9–NETosis feedback loop is considered a central regulator of sepsis. However, few studies have integrated these eleme…
BackgroundOccult breast cancer (OBC) presents with axillary lymph node (ALN) metastases without detectable primary tumor (PT) yet exhibits paradoxically favorable prognosis compared to non-occult breast cancer (non-OBC). We aimed to elucidate mechanism…
The biomass of Quillaja saponaria is a well-characterized source of triterpenic saponins, a family of amphiphilic glycosides with broad industrial and biomedical relevance. Among these, the highly purified fraction QS-21, and the related fractions QHA …

Immunoglobulin A (IgA) is the most abundantly produced antibody in mammals, with its secretory dimeric form playing a central role in maintaining intestinal homeostasis. Although the J chain is known to be essential for IgA transcytosis, its precise ro…
Gynecological diseases represent a persistent global health burden. According to a WHO report, the global incidence of gynecological diseases exceeds 65%. Furthermore, over 90% of women suffer from gynecological issues to varying degrees. They account …
Therapeutic strategies in the management of diabetic retinal diseases have typically employed anti–vascular endothelial growth factor A (anti–VEGF-A) therapies. While generally effective, clinical trials and real-world analyses demonstrate that a subst…
ObjectivesVestibular and oculomotor abnormalities have been widely identified in Fabry disease (FD), with inflammation potentially playing an important role. We aim to investigate the expression of inflammatory cytokines (ICs) in FD patients and their …
