  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

    ABSTRACT
    Enterovirus 71 (EV71) infection is usually accompanied by neurological damage, which is the leading cause of death in children with hand-foot-mouth disease. In this study, we demonstrated that EV71 infection can cause pathological damage in the nervous system, such as neuronal vacuolar degeneration, shrinkage of some neurons, edema of brain tissues in the hippocampus, and a decreased number of Nissl bodies in the infarction area. Also, EV71 infection caused apparent structural damage to Schwann cells, including a decreased number of cytoplasmic organelles and severe damage of rough endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. However, the pathological damage was alleviated with the decrease of EV71 viral load. The cell experiment in vitro showed that EV71 infection significantly reduced ATP levels and promoted Schwann cell apoptosis, thus inhibiting cell growth. The extended infection time and the decreased viral load resulted in the gradual improvement of cell growth status. Meanwhile, EV71 inhibited the expression of miR-29b and promoted the expression of PMP22 in a time-dependent manner at both mRNA and protein levels, with the most significant change at 36 h of infection. Subsequently, the expression of miR-29b and PMP22 was gradually restored with the reduction of EV71 viral load. In addition, EV71 regulated the expression of hsa_circ_0069335, which could bind and co-localize with miR-29b. Therefore, EV71 infection can cause significant damage to the nervous system and may be related to hsa_circ_0069335/miR-29b/PMP22 pathway. The present study provides a new therapeutic target for neurological damage induced by EV71 infection.

    Many people don’t realize that some “childhood diseases” can have serious side effects years down the road, nor that some can wipe out existing immune protections by causing immune amnesia.

  23. 'As of yet, none of the improved IL-2-based compounds gained regulatory approval for the treatment of cancer or autoimmune diseases. Three compounds treating cancer have entered phase 3 trials with two studies still ongoing. NKTR-214 is the only compound that has completed phase 3 studies.'

  24. "A close examination of the IL-2–IL-2Rα binding interface reveals a putative “pH Switch” consisting of the interaction between Arg38 in IL-2 and His120 in IL-2Rα (Fig. 2F). We hypothesized that, at the low pH in the TME, His120 would become protonated, resulting in release of IL-2 from IL-2Rα and therefore lack of signaling."
