Article Abstract

Autoimmune diseases (ADs) are a classification of disorders that occur owing to the breakdown of immunological tolerance to self-antigens, leading to an immune response to these antigens and associated bodily harm. The pathogenesis and etiology of these diseases remain unclear. A growing body of research indicates that metabolic reprogramming of immune cells is crucial for immunological control. In particular, glycolysis, a crucial metabolic process in cells, is reconfigured to influence the phenotypic and function of immune cells, therefore playing a role in the onset and progression of ADs. This review elaborates on the involvement of glycometabolic reprogramming in ADs and explores the function of glycometabolic reprogramming in immune cells throughout disease progression. Furthermore, we examine the principal targets implicated and their influence on disease advancement. Finally, we provide a brief summary and outlook of studies related to glycometabolic reprogramming of immune cells in ADs, aiming to guide therapeutic strategies for these diseases.

Follicular unit extraction (FUE) has become a leading technique in hair transplantation, yet optimal management of the donor area remains a clinical challenge. This systematic review analyzes intraoperative and postoperative interventions applied to the donor area in FUE hair transplantation, with a focus on both clinical outcomes and the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in tissue repair, inflammatory response, and regenerative processes. A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed and EMBASE (January 2000-June 2025), identifying clinical studies that evaluated donor area treatments and reported outcomes related to healing, inflammation, infection, and patient satisfaction.

The Role of Neuroglia in Cognitive Longevity.

The concept of the central nervous system (CNS) reserve emerged from the mismatch often observed between the extent of brain pathology and its clinical manifestations. The cognitive reserve reflects an "active" capacity, driven by the plasticity of CNS cellular components and shaped by experience, learning, and memory processes that increase resilience. We propose that neuroglial cells are central to defining this resilience and cognitive reserve.

Aurora kinase A promotes trained immunity via regulation of endogenous S-adenosylmethionine metabolism.

Innate immune cells can acquire a memory phenotype, termed trained immunity, but the mechanism underlying the regulation of trained immunity remains largely elusive. Here, we demonstrate that inhibition of Aurora kinase A (AurA) dampens trained immunity induced by β-glucan. ATAC-seq and RNA-seq analysis reveal that AurA inhibition restricts chromatin accessibility of genes associated with inflammatory pathways such as JAK-STAT, TNF, and NF-κB pathways.
