  2. Rituximab (RTX), an intravenous drug primarily known for depleting B cells, has been found to also trigger positive metabolic changes in T cells, specifically improving energy production and lowering cellular stress in patients with nephrotic syndrome who respond favorably to the treatment.

  3. It is a remarkably humbling realization that a single, unnoticed bite from an arthropod the size of an apple seed can completely rewrite an individual's relationship with the global food chain. Alpha-gal syndrome reminds us that the human immune system, for all its staggering sophistication and atomic-level precision, remains intimately and sometimes precariously tethered to the natural world.

  4. First, a paper suggesting that random-sequence mRNA vaccines enhance anti-tumor effects, and now another claiming that random, nonspecific T cells are sufficient to eliminate tumors. So much for antigen specificity.

  5. Specialized white blood cells known as monocytes move from the bloodstream into the uterus during the menstrual cycle to regulate inflammation, tissue repair, and the maintenance of the womb lining.

  10. Genetic analysis of individual immune cells of approximately 1,000 people of European ancestry (57% women) found approximately 1,000 genetic switches controlling the immune system that differed between men and women. These were not all on the sex chromosomes. This may explain why women better resist viral infections but are more susceptible to autoimmune diseases.

  14. 💧🧬 Aquagenic urticaria is an extremely rare condition where #skin contact with #water triggers painful hives.

    Researchers believe a substance on the skin reacts with water to release histamine. Interestingly, those affected can still drink water safely because their internal digestive systems don't trigger this specific immune response.

  15. my father died ravaged by #dementia, so this is a topic near and dear to me for more than 20 years now.

    what is interesting to me about this study is that it validates the #immunology hypothesis about #Alzheimer's #dementia. some studies see it as a consequence of general inflammation, aka autoimmune reaction to unknown triggers. others pointed to #diabetes, suggesting it’s a Type 3.

    and the knowledge of #herpes as a dementia trigger is much older.

  16. Researchers developed small-molecule drug candidates that mimic a rare, protective variant of the #CARD9 gene to treat #Crohn's disease and other inflammatory bowel diseases.

  17. While stress is widespread, the idea that every offspring of pregnant mice responds in the same way is implausible in humans. This underscores the inherent weakness of inbred animal models.
