Article Abstract
Immunosenescence describes immune dysfunction observed in older individuals. To identify individuals at-risk for immune dysfunction, it is crucial to understand the diverse immune phenotypes and their intrinsic functional capabilities. We investigated immune cell subsets and variation in the aging population. We observed that inter-individual immune variation was associated with age and cytomegalovirus seropositivity. Based on the similarities of immune subset composition among individuals, we identified nine immunotypes that displayed different aging-associated immune signatures, which explained inter-individual variation better than age. Additionally, we correlated the immune subset composition of individuals over approximately a year as a measure of stability of immune parameters. Immune stability was significantly lower in immunotypes that contained aging-associated immune subsets and correlated with a circulating CD38 + CD4+ T follicular helper cell increase 7 days after influenza vaccination. In conclusion, immune stability is a feature of immunotypes and could be a potential indicator of post-vaccination cellular kinetics.

Adoptive transfer of third-party donor CMV-specific T cells for refractory cytomegalovirus infection following umbilical cord blood transplantation.

Refractory cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a severe complication following umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT). Antiviral agents, the standard first-line therapy, are limited by toxicity and resistance without robust T-cell immunity. We evaluated third-party donor (TPD)-derived CMV-specific T cells (CMVSTs) as a treatment option.

Background: Fish are the largest group of vertebrates. Studying the characteristics, functions, and interactions of different fish cells is important for understanding their roles in disease and evolution. However, most single cell RNA-seq studies in fish are restricted to a few specific organs, leaving a comprehensive cell landscape that aims to characterize the heterogeneity and connections among body-wide organs largely unexplored.

Background: Brucellosis remains a significant public health and economic challenge in Egypt despite long-standing control efforts. This paper outlines the national strategy for brucellosis control, detailing its legal framework, diagnostic protocols, surveillance mechanisms, vaccination programs, and biosecurity measures.
Main Body: Egypt employs a dual approach of test-and-slaughter and selective vaccination, supported by serological and pathological diagnostics.
TCA cycle-derived oncometabolites in cancer and the immune microenvironment.

Oncometabolites are aberrant metabolic byproducts that arise from mutations in enzymes of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle or related metabolic pathways and play central roles in tumor progression and immune evasion. Among these, 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG), succinate, and fumarate are the most well-characterized, acting as competitive inhibitors of α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases to alter DNA and histone methylation, cellular differentiation, and hypoxia signaling. More recently, itaconate, an immunometabolite predominantly produced by activated macrophages, has been recognized for its dual roles in modulating inflammation and tumor immunity.

Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are a heterogeneous group of rare malignant tumors arising from mesenchymal tissues, with extremity and superficial trunk STS (eSTS) comprising the majority of cases. The management of localized eSTS requires a multidisciplinary approach to optimize oncologic and functional outcomes. This review outlines the natural history, diagnostic workup, and treatment principles for localized eSTS, emphasizing the role of histology-specific considerations in guiding management strategies.
