Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease and the integrity of CXCR1 synovial macrophage barrier significantly impacts its progression. However, the mechanisms driving the dynamic changes of this macrophage barrier remain unclear. Traditional drug therapies for RA have substantial limitations.

The epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays significant roles in the progression of cancer and fibrotic disease. Moreover, this process is reversible, resulting in mesenchymal epithelial transition (MET), which plays an important role in cancer metastasis. There is a lack of methods to trace and target EMT cells using synthetic biology circuits, which makes it difficult to study the cell fate or develop targeted treatments.

Unlabelled: Cancer progression is highly dependent on the ability of cancer cell tumor formation, in which epigenetic modulation plays an essential role. However, the epigenetic factors promoting breast tumor formation are less known. Screened from three-dimensional (3D)-sphere tumor formation model, HMGN5 that regulates chromatin structures became the candidate therapeutic target in breast cancer, though its role is obscure.

Meanwhile, Chronic stress-induced depression also has a close relationship with gut microbiota structure and composition. In the current research, we demonstrated that a tryptophan-rich diet (0.

Here, applying a novel strategy of single-cell mass cytometry combined with Nano Genome Atlas of multi-tissues, we systematically evaluate the interactions between the host and calcium phosphate (CaP) USNCs at the organism level. Combining single-cell mass cytometry, and magnetic luminex assay results, we identify dynamic immune responses to CaP USNCs at the single cell resolution.
