The coronavirus disease (COVID-19), during its course, may involve several organs, including the skin with a petechial skin rash, urticaria and erythematous rash, or varicella-like eruption, representing an additional effect of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, as commonly observed in other viral diseases. Considering that symptomatic patients with COVID-19 generally undergo multidrug treatments, the occurrence of a possible adverse drug reaction presenting with cutaneous manifestations should be contemplated. Pleomorphic skin eruptions occurred in a 59-year-old Caucasian woman, affected by a stable form of chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection, treated with a combination of hydroxychloroquine sulfate, darunavir, ritonavir, sarilumb, omeprazole, ceftriaxone, high-flow oxygen therapy devices, filgrastim (Zarzio®) as a single injection, and enoxaparin. The patient stopped all treatment but oxygen and enoxaparin and received a high-dose Desametasone with complete remission of dermatological impairment in 10 days. It is very important to differentially diagnose COVID-19 disease-related cutaneous manifestations, where is justified to continue the multi-drug antiviral treatment, from those caused by an adverse drug reaction, where it would be necessary to identify the possible culprit drug and to start appropriate antiallergic treatment.

This is a real-life study that shows that dupilumab is effective and safe in Austrian real-life severe asthmatics. It rapidly improved asthma control. These improvements are comparable to previous randomized controlled trials.

This study showed that multiple administrations of liposomal α-Galactosylceramide (α-GC) modulated both host- and donor-derived invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cell homeostasis and induced an early expansion of donor Tregs. This was followed by the decreased levels of CXCL13 in plasma and follicular helper T cells in lymph nodes, which inhibited germinal center formation, resulting in the efficient prevention of sclerodermatous chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)."

IL-13 exposure inhibits keratinocyte differentiation by interrupting ΔNp63 downregulation. Decreased filaggrin and caspase-14 expression further disturb epidermal barrier integrity, whereas increased IL-1β and IL-33 enhance inflammation. This IL-13–ΔNp63 axis may constitute a vicious cycle, partly explaining the chronicity of atopic dermatitis.

Biofunctionalization titanium with nanotube could inhibit macrophage glycolysis, reduce inflammatory factor release and promote M2 polarization by activating the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway. And endothelialization was accelerated in vitro. Our result demonstrated that titanium nanotube could act as a potential approach to biofunctionlize titanium-based prosthetic valves for endothelialization

Lupus nephritis is perpetuated by unrestrained inflammation, potentially driven by the hematopoietic growth factor granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). Lupus-prone Lyn-deficient mice lacking G-CSF were not protected from the development of autoimmunity and, in fact, exhibited exacerbated indices of kidney pathology. Furthermore, G-CSF levels in human serum were not elevated in systemic lupus erythematosus patients or in correlation with renal disease, overall indicating that G-CSF is not a major pathogenic factor in lupus nephritis.

Subclinical CMV replication and aGvHD development while on letermovir are major risk factors for CMV breakthrough infection.

Expression of B-cell activating factor (BAFF) was upregulated by addition of interferons. Although BAFF expression was inhibited by addition of human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 infected cell line, HCT-5 and MT-2, the level was not inhibited by addition of control cell line, MOLT-4.

Baseline CD4 count and the time interval between the initial HIV infection and diagnosis among PLHIV in Bhutan.

Oral infection with Salmonella enhances the frequency of dendritic cells expressing the pro-inflammatory chemokine CCL17, promoting dendritic cell–T cell interaction. In Peyer's patches, CCL17-expressing cells colocalize with Salmonella and Salmonella-containing cells in mesenteric lymph nodes are preferentially CCL17-positive. While CCL17-expressing cells participate in the early dissemination of Salmonella, CCL17 itself appears to play a redundant role in this process.

We report a low-cost FACS assay for antibodies against the native severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 spike protein that does not require recombinant proteins or infectious virus. We demonstrate the utility of the assay by assessing antibody responses of hospitalized patients, health care personnel, and house-holds of coronavirus diasease 2019 + individuals and their co-quarantined room mates in the city state of Hamburg

In our study, we aimed to research the correlation of methylation level of Syk and metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC). We further used Decitabine to restore the expression of Syk in CRC cells. The results revealed that Decitabine could restore the expression of Syk and therefore prohibited the migration and invasion of CRC cells.

Alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) is characterized by delayed hypersensitivity to non-primate mammalian meat in people having specific IgE (sIgE) to the oligosaccharide galactose-alpha-1,3-galactose and has been linked to tick bites from Amblyomma americanum (Aa) in the U.S. We demonstrate that intradermal injection of Aa tick salivary gland extract (TSGE) in alpha-gal knockout (AGKO) mice induce alpha-gal sIgE production and mice displayed moderate clinical allergic signs along with a drop in core body temperature as an objective measure of a systemic allergic reaction. Further, this model recapitulates several aspects of red meat allergy seen in the humans and will be used to mechanistically study this novel food allergy and model therapeutic approaches to treat this disease.

In this present study, neutrophil greater than 7.5 × 10⁹/L may be associated with a high risk of renal impairment in RA. We also found that UA > 360 μmol/L and hemoglobin less than 120 g/L independently associated with a higher risk of renal impairment in RA patients. Although more prospective studies are needed to verify our results, based on the above data, we believe that continuous monitoring of these risk factors in RA patients is necessary and it could be used for early detection and identification of changes in GFR, allowing doctors to treat patients with potential kidney damage promptly.
