Human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines were derived from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) obtained from ten healthy Korean donors of diverse ages and genders using a Sendai virus-based reprogramming method. These iPSC lines expressed markers of undifferentiated state and demonstrated trilineage differentiation potential in vitro. Characterization confirmed normal karyotypes, clearance of the Sendai virus, and short tandem repeat (STR) profiles identical to the parental PBMCs. These cell lines can serve as a valuable resource for disease modeling, drug screening, and as a human-based alternative to animal experiments.

Background: Glucocorticoids remain the primary treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in children. However, glucocorticoid-resistant ALL exhibits increased mortality rates. To overcome resistance and improve management strategies, alternative therapeutic agents are required.

Wheat, a significant source of protein, can also induce various wheat-related allergic reactions (WRARs). Statistical data show significant spatiotemporal and geographical variations in the prevalence of WRARs. Studies reveal that hexaploid wheat exhibits notably higher allergenicity.

Background: Liver transplantation is the definitive treatment for end-stage liver disease and some cancers. The use of livers from donors following pre-donation cardiac arrest (PDCA), especially with prolonged downtime duration, has been limited outside of the US due to fears over inferior outcomes from ischemic injury. However, PDCA may induce ischemic preconditioning, paradoxically improving post-transplant outcomes.

Amphetamines are psychostimulants that are commonly used to treat neuropsychiatric disorders and are prone to misuse. The pathogenesis of amphetamine use disorder (AUD) is associated with dysbiosis (an imbalance in the body's microbiome) and bacterially produced short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which are implicated in the gut-brain axis. Amphetamine exposure in both rats and humans increases the amount of intestinal , which releases SFCAs.

Sickness-induced sleep is a behavior conserved across species that promotes recovery from illness, yet the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we show that interleukin-6-like cytokine signaling from the gut to brain glial cells regulates sleep. Under healthy conditions, this pathway promotes wakefulness.
