The early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) can greatly improve patients' 5-year survival rate, and the efficacy assessment is important for oncologists to harness anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) immunotherapy in patients with advanced HCC. lack effective predicting biomarkers not only leads delayed detection disease but also results ineffective limited clinical benefit.We exploited single-cell approach (cytometry by time flight (CyTOF)) analyze peripheral blood...

Abstract Atherosclerosis (AS), a leading cause of cardio-cerebrovascular disease worldwide, is driven by the accumulation lipid contents and chronic inflammation. Traditional strategies primarily focus on reduction to control AS progression, leaving residual inflammatory risks for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). While anti-inflammatory therapies targeting innate immunity have reduced MACEs, many patients continue face significant risks. Another key component in progression...

Objectives Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) can induce herpes zoster (HZ) and postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). Immune cells play an important role in regulating HZ PHN pathogenesis, but the dynamic immune profiles molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to screen signatures during progression elucidate mechanism of VZV-specific T PHN. Methods We used cytometry by time-of-flight (CyTOF) analyze peripheral blood mononuclear (PBMC) samples from 45 patients with eight age-sex-matched...

The efficacy of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapy for acute liver injury (ALI) involves coordination with the hepatic immune system, a complex and coordinated network immune-cell interactions. However, studies immunomodulatory effects MSCs have focused on limited number subsets rather than systematic assessment. Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) was used to induce ALI in mice. To determine MSCs, mice were injected via tail vein, histopathological changes, survival rate, serum levels...

Abstract T cell genome editing holds great promise to advance a range of immunotherapies but is encumbered by the dependence on difficult‐to‐produce and expensive viral vectors. Here, small double‐stranded plasmid DNA modified mediate high‐efficiency homologous recombination designed. The resulting chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)‐T cells display similar phenotype, transcriptional profile, in vivo potency CAR‐T generated using adeno‐associated vector. This method should simplify accelerate...

Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T therapy requires autologous T lymphocytes from cancer patients, a process that is both costly and complex. Universal CAR-T cell treatment allogeneic sources can overcome this limitation but impeded by graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) host versus-graft rejection (HvGR). Here, we introduce mutated calcineurin subunit A (CNA) CD19-specific CAR into the α constant ( TRAC ) locus to generate cells are resistant widely used immunosuppressant, cyclosporine...

Abstract Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection may activate viral-specific T cells to attack HBV infected hepatocytes and thus induce immune-related liver injury. Therefore, it is important deeply understand the impacts on HCC immune microenvironment in order better design effective immunotherapies for + (HBV infected) patients. Here, We performed cytometry by time-of-flight (CyTOF) analyses characterize...

Single-cell multiplexing is key to exploration of the heterogeneous cell populations in biological systems. Although state-of-the-art mass cytometry (CyTOF) possesses high resolution and multiple dimensions, lack suitable marker materials prohibits fully exploiting available CyTOF detection channels. Here we report a new design strategy for markers using functionalized mesoporous porphyrinic frameworks (MPFs) as scaffolds chelating metals that have been unachievable by conventional...

Purpose To compare the effects of recombinant FSH alfa (rFSH-alfa), rFSH-beta, highly purified human menopausal gonadotropin (HP-hMG) and urinary (uFSH) in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome who have undertaken GnRH antagonist protocol during IVF/ICSI treatment. Method A single-center retrospective cohort study including PCOS received from January 2019 to July 2022 was conducted. Patients were divided into rFSH-alfa group, HP-hMG uFSH rFSH-beta number oocytes retrieved, clinical...

Abstract Immune checkpoint inhibitors have transformed the treatment landscape of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, accurately identifying patients who will benefit from immunotherapy remains a challenge. This study aimed to discover potential biomarkers for predicting response in NSCLC patients. Single-cell mass cytometry (CyTOF) was utilized analyze immune subsets peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) obtained before and 12 weeks after single-agent immunotherapy. The CyTOF...
