Abstract:
Vaccine safety is measured by the disease protection it confers compared to the harm it may cause; both factors and their relative numbers have been the subject of disagreement. Cross-reactive attack of analogous self-antigens modified by dietary and microbiome factors is one of the poorly explored likely causes of harm. Screening for that and other risk factors might point out those most likely to develop severe vaccine reactions. Cooperation from those with opinions for and against vaccination in data gathering and vetting will lead to greater safety. Screening should include an integrative

Abstract:
(1) Background: The HIV-1 latent reservoir harboring replication-competent proviruses is the major barrier in the quest for an HIV-1 infection cure. HIV-1 infection at all stages of disease progression is associated with immune activation and dysfunctional production of proinflammatory soluble factors (cytokines and chemokines), and it is expected that during HIV-1 infection, different immune components and immune cells, in turn, participate in immune responses, subsequently activating downstream biological pathways. However, the functional interaction between HIV-1 integration and the activat

Abstract:
Drug-induced agranulocytosis was defined as a severe selective neutropenia caused by an unexpected drug reaction. Metamizole was the most common nonopioid analgesic drug associated with agranulocytosis. It was also associated with combined blood dyscrasias and other severe immunologic disorders. The risk of agranulocytosis by metamizole seemed to be considerably higher than estimated formerly. Modern management with broad-spectrum antibiotics and haematopoietic growth factors reduced the mortality in those patients. Two cases of agranulocytosis caused by metamizole were reported.

Atopic Dermatitis (AD), also known as eczema, is a chronic, relapsing, and itchy inflammatory skin condition. The pathogenesis of AD including genetic, environmental, and immunologic factors. The primary biologic changes in AD are decreased skin barrier function, Filaggrin gene impairment, and Calcineurin-mediated Th2 cell activation. History taking and clinical manifestations play an essential role in ruling out common differential diagnoses because there is no specific diagnostic tool for AD. The management of AD varies in children and adults depend on the severity of cases. Successful treat

Abstract:
Kidney transplantation (KT) represents a pivotal intervention for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), significantly improving survival and quality of life. However, KT recipients face an array of non-immunological complications, collectively amplifying cardiovascular (CV) and metabolic risks. This review explores the intersection of cardio-metabolic syndrome and KT, emphasizing the recently introduced cardiovascular–kidney–metabolic (CKM) syndrome. CKM syndrome integrates metabolic risk factors, CKD, and CV disease, with KT recipients uniquely predisposed due to immunosuppressive thera

Non-celiac villous atrophy (NCVA) is a multifaceted and under-recognized clinical entity with an etiology beyond celiac disease. This review critically examines the diverse pathophysiological mechanisms underlying NCVA, including autoimmune enteropathies, immune deficiency-related disorders, infectious processes, drug-induced trauma, and metabolic or environmental influences. A comprehensive synthesis of peer-reviewed literature, clinical studies, and case reports was conducted, adopting a multidisciplinary perspective that integrates immunologic, infectious, metabolic, and pharmacologic insig

Abstract:
Rabies, a viral disease spread by infected animal bites that causes encephalitis in humans and other mammals, is a neglected infectious disease present on all continents except Antarctica. Spain has been free of terrestrial rabies since 1978. However, due to its geographical situation, it represents a bridge for imported cases from an endemic continent such as Africa to Europe. Rabies vaccination in dogs is an essential preventive tool against this zoonosis. The aim of this study was to determine the state of the immune response against rabies virus in dogs in Spain and to demonstrate whether

Abstract It is known that the coagulation factor levels change with age. In this work, we have applied a quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP) model of the coagulation network to predict whether age related changes in coagulation factor levels will impact dose response for PF-05320907 on various pharmacodynamic endpoints. PF-05230907 (PF-907) is a variant of FXa, in which the conformational transition from zymogen to active protease is impaired. Binding to activated factor V facilitates its transition to the active conformation, rescues procoagulant activity and is hypothesized to localize P

The incidence of VTE, particularly VTE acquired by hospitalized children, has increased dramatically over the last 15 years but may be preventable in some cases. Reducing the incidence of hospital-acquired VTE may not only improve patient care but also decrease healthcare costs associated with diagnosis and treatment.

The predominant expression of TNFR1 or TNFR2 facilitates cell death or proliferation, respectively, on TWEAK/Fn14 activation.
