Article Abstract

Although the early outcome of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has considerably improved in the last decade, cardiovascular diseases still represent the main cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. This is mainly because recurrence of ACS eventually leads to the pandemics of heart failure and sudden cardiac death, thus calling for a reappraisal of the mechanisms responsible for coronary instability. This review discusses recent advances in our understanding of how adaptive immunity contributes to the pathogenesis of ACS and the clinical implications that arise from these new pathogenic concepts.

Regulatory T cells are essential for immune homeostasis. While CD4 T cells are well characterized, CD8 T cells remain less understood and are primarily observed in pathological or experimental contexts. Here, we identify a naturally occurring CD8 regulatory precursor T cell at the steady state, defined by a CD8HLA-DRCD27 phenotype and a transcriptome resembling CD4 T cells.

An Activatable and Covalent Tumor-Associated Antigen Capturer Enabling Systemic Injection for Promoted Antitumor Immunity.

Antigen-capturing nanomaterials hold great promise for cancer immunotherapy; however, the need for tumor localized administration and limited antigen-binding affinity remains the "Achilles heel" of this strategy. Herein, we present a tumor microenvironment (TME)-activatable nanoplatform, TDR848@FPB, designed for systemic administration and enhanced covalent capture of tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), enabling effective immunotherapy with minimal off-target effects and independent of localized tumor administration. This platform encapsulates a photosensitizer-conjugated, light-activated toll-like receptor (TLR) agonist, which induces immunogenic cell death and triggers a pro-inflammatory TME conducive to antigen capture upon light irradiation.

We analyzed the patterns of transmission in the 2022 clade IIb mpox epidemic as it unfolded in the European population of men who have sex with men (MSM). We developed an agent-based model that simulates sexual pair formation, incorporating both brief and longer-term sexual relationships. The model implements survey data on the sexual behavior of MSM and accounts for the highly heterogeneous nature of the sexual contact network within this community.

Various cancer therapeutic strategies have been designed for targeting tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), but TAM reprogramming-based monotherapy is often clinically hindered, likely due to the lack of a coordinated platform to initiate T cell-mediated immunity. Herein, we fabricated reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive human serum albumin (HSA)-based nanoparticles (PEG/IL12-IA NPs) consisting of indocyanine green (ICG), arginine (Arg), and interleukin 12 (IL12). Upon laser irradiation, the nanoparticles were found to be able to dissociate, thus facilitating the release of IL12.

Background: Breast cancer is a systemic disease, yet the impact of tumor molecular subtype and disease stage on the systemic immune landscape remains poorly understood. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed the systemic immune landscape in a large cohort of breast cancer patients, encompassing all molecular subtypes and disease stages, alongside a control group of healthy donors.

Materials And Methods: Using multi-parameter flow cytometry, we assessed the abundance, phenotype, and activation status of diverse innate and adaptive immune cell populations across peripheral blood samples from 355 breast cancer patients and 65 healthy donors.
