Article Abstract
Background: Local tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in immunotherapy for breast cancer (BC). Whereas, the molecular mechanism responsible for the crosstalk between BC cells and surrounding immune cells remains unclear. The present study aimed to determine the interplay between GPR81-mediated glucometabolic reprogramming of BC and the immune landscape in TME.
Materials And Methods: Immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay was first performed to evaluate the association between GPR81 and the immune landscape. Then, several stable BC cell lines with down-regulated GPR81 expression were established to directly identify the role of GPR81 in glucometabolic reprogramming, and western blotting assay was used to detect the underlying molecular mechanism. Finally, a transwell co-culture system confirmed the crosstalk between glucometabolic regulation mediated by GPR81 in BC and induced immune attenuation.
Results: IHC analysis demonstrated that the representation of infiltrating CD8 T cells and FOXP3 T cells were dramatically higher in BC with a triple negative (TN) subtype in comparison with that with a non-TN subtype (P < 0.001). Additionally, the ratio of infiltrating CD8 to FOXP3 T cells was significantly negatively associated with GPR81 expression in BC with a TN subtype (P < 0.001). Furthermore, GPR81 was found to be substantially correlated with the glycolytic capability (P < 0.001) of BC cells depending on a Hippo-YAP signaling pathway (P < 0.001). In the transwell co-culture system, GPR81-mediated reprogramming of glucose metabolism in BC significantly contributed to a decreased proportion of CD8 T (P < 0.001) and an increased percentage of FOXP3 T (P < 0.001) in the co-cultured lymphocytes.
Conclusion: Glucometabolic reprogramming through a GPR81-mediated Hippo-YAP signaling pathway was responsible for the distinct immune landscape in BC. GPR81 was a potential biomarker to stratify patients before immunotherapy to improve BC's clinical prospect.

The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the continuously evolving SARS-CoV-2 virus, has presented persistent global health challenges. As novel variants emerge, many with enhanced transmissibility and immune evasion capabilities, concerns have intensified regarding the efficacy of existing vaccines and therapeutics. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current landscape of COVID-19 vaccination, including the development and performance of monovalent and bivalent boosters, and examines their effectiveness against newly emerging variants of interest (VOIs) and variants under monitoring (VUMs), such as JN.

Purpose: To characterize corneal immune cell morphodynamics and nerve features, and define the in vivo immune landscape in older adults with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART), relative to healthy age-matched adults.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 16 HIV-positive individuals receiving ART and 15 age-matched controls underwent ocular surface examinations and functional in vivo confocal microscopy (Fun-IVCM). Time-lapsed videos were created to analyze corneal immune cells (T cells, dendritic cells [DCs], macrophages).

Background And Aims: So far, there is no effective mechanism-based therapeutic agent tailored for liver tumors. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have demonstrated limited efficacy in liver cancer, often associated with severe adverse effects. Although poly-inosinic:cytidylic acid (polyIC) has shown an adjuvant effect when combined with anti-PD-L1 antibody (αPD-L1) in treating liver tumors in animal models, its systemic toxicity limits its clinical utility.

Background: Sepsis is characterized by profound immune and metabolic perturbations, with glycolysis serving as a pivotal modulator of immune responses. However, the molecular mechanisms linking glycolytic reprogramming to immune dysfunction remain poorly defined.
Methods: Transcriptomic profiles of sepsis were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus.

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) often leads to severe motor and sensory impairments, and current treatment methods have not achieved complete neural repair. In recent years, exosomes have become a research focus in the treatment of nerve injuries due to their important roles in intercellular information transfer, immune regulation, and neural repair. Our study conducts a scientometric analysis to map the research landscape related to exosomes in SCI.
