Article Abstract
A dramatic increase in the prevalence of allergy and asthma has occurred during the past few decades. Although the symptoms of many allergic disorders can be suppressed quite effectively by pharmacological interventions, these do not provide a curative solution and therefore involve lifelong use of medication. Allergen-specific immunotherapy (SIT) on the other hand provides a long-lasting effect on the immune response to common environmental antigens, therefore allowing cessation of the therapy after several years. The changes in the immune response brought about by allergen-SIT are slowly being unveiled and explained. Mechanisms underlying allergen-SIT and in particular the role of regulatory T cells will be discussed in this review, based on recent findings and current concepts.

Objective: CircRNAs are involved in cancer progression. However, their role in immune escape in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains poorly understood.
Methods: This study employed RIP-seq for the targeted enrichment of circRNAs, followed by Western blotting and RT-qPCR to confirm their expression.

Vascular sites have distinct susceptibility to atherosclerosis and aneurysm, yet the epigenomic and transcriptomic underpinning of vascular site-specific disease risk is largely unknown. Here, we performed single-cell chromatin accessibility (scATACseq) and gene expression profiling (scRNAseq) of mouse vascular tissue from three vascular sites. Through interrogation of epigenomic enhancers and gene regulatory networks, we discovered key regulatory enhancers to not only be cell type, but vascular site-specific.

Aging is a major risk factor for various neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, and is associated with the accumulation of senescent cells, which can themselves propagate the senescence process through paracrine signaling. Migrasomes are organelles that form during cellular migration, detach from parent cells and mediate intercellular communication. Here we demonstrate that border-associated macrophages (BAMs) acquire senescence-associated properties during early brain aging, possibly due to prolonged exposure to amyloid beta.

Cancer-associated muscle wasting is associated with poor clinical outcomes, but its underlying biology is largely uncharted in humans. Unbiased analysis of the RNAome (coding and non-coding RNAs) with unsupervised clustering using integrative non-negative matrix factorization provides a means of identifying distinct molecular subtypes and was applied here to muscle of patients with colorectal or pancreatic cancer. Rectus abdominis biopsies from 84 patients were profiled using high-throughput next-generation sequencing.

Cholesterol biosynthesis is more activated in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) than in other subtype breast cancer and plays essential role in facilitating TNBC. However, the regulatory network and how cholesterol biosynthesis contribute to TNBC development and progression are not well elucidated. Here, we found that reticulum membrane protein complex 2 (EMC2) is highly expressed in TNBC and predicts short survival of patients.
