The reverse transsulfuration pathway is the major route for the metabolism of sulfur-containing amino acids. The role of this metabolic pathway in macrophage response and function is unknown. We show that the enzyme cystathionine γ-lyase (CTH) is induced in macrophages infected with pathogenic ba...
AIMS: Previous metabolomics studies suggest that type 1 diabetes is preceded by specific metabolic disturbances. The aim of this study was to investigate whether distinct metabolic patterns occur in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of children who later develop pancreat...
We identified germline heterozygous mutations in CTLA4 in members of four families with severe immune dysregulation. Human CTLA4 haploinsufficiency caused dysregulation of FoxP3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells and lymphocytic infiltration of target organs, mimicking Ctla4 homozygo...
Emerging evidence suggests a link between gut microbiota, bile acid metabolism, and immune dysregulation in dyslipidemia. Through a case-control study involving 140 participants and animal experiment, we identified significantly elevated count of peripheral blood CD3+ T cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ ...
This study investigates the role of DNASE1L3 deficiency in hepatic immune and metabolic regulation. Using transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, we characterize changes in Kupffer cell polarization, ER stress, iron metabolism, and ferroptosis in DNASE1L3 knockout mice.'
The endemic of SARS-CoV-2 underscores the imperative to elucidate its effects on pregnancy, particularly regarding the potential for vertical transmission and its influence on the early maternal-fetal interface, which remain insufficiently defined. To address this, we performed an extensive cohor...
PURPOSE: Olfactory dysfunction (OD) is a debilitating symptom frequently reported by patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and it is associated with a dysregulated sinonasal inflammation. However, little information is available about the effect of the inflammation-related n...
Porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV) is an emerging enteric coronavirus that causes severe diarrhea and high mortality in neonatal piglets and has demonstrated the capacity to infect human cells. However, the host response networks that govern disease outcome remain poorly understood. Here, we perfor...
This study aims to compare changes in bile acid profiles between fecal samples from rats fed a standard control diet and those fed a high-fat diet.
