Background: Atherosclerosis, a leading cause of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality worldwide, is characterized by dysregulated lipid metabolism and unresolved inflammation. Macrophage-derived foam cell formation and apoptosis contribute to plaque formation and vulnerability. Elevated serum galectin-3 (Gal-3) levels are associated with increased CVD risk, and Gal-3 in plaques is strongly associated with macrophages.

Introduction: Biomarkers are essential for monitoring the progression of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Although dysregulated brain lipid metabolism, particularly sphingolipids enriched in the nervous system, is a key feature of neurodegeneration, plasma lipids remain underexplored as biomarkers compared to imaging and serum proteins.

Methods: We examined plasma lipidomes using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) from individuals carrying pathogenic variants linked to autosomal dominant FTD (GRN, C9orf72, MAPT) and non-carriers.

Background: Disialoganglioside (GD2) is a tumor-associated antigen that is highly expressed in various neuroectodermal cancers, including melanoma. While chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell immunotherapy has demonstrated remarkable success in treating hematologic neoplasms, the identification of suitable targets remains a major obstacle in translating this approach to solid tumors.

Methods: Peripheral blood T lymphocytes from six healthy donors were used to generate GD2-specific CAR T cells via retroviral transduction.

Background And Aims: Biliary atresia (BA) is a severe neonatal cholangiopathy characterized by progressive inflammation and fibrosis. We aimed to systematically investigate BA pathology using integrated multi-omics.

Methods: Multi-omics integration of BA and control livers revealed sphingolipid dysregulation.
