Current first-line treatments of paediatric ulcerative colitis (UC) maintain a 6-month remission in only half of the patients. Relapse prediction at diagnosis could enable earlier introduction of immunosuppressants. We collected intestinal biopsies f...
Interferon-γ (IFN-γ), a key pro-inflammatory cytokine, is widely recognized as a critical biomarker for diagnosing and monitoring various immune-related conditions. However, its typically low concentrations in biological fluids─at the picogram-per-mi...
Interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) is a versatile pleiotropic cytokine essential for both innate and adaptive immune responses. It exhibits both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a promising therapeutic candidate for treating various...

PURPOSE: X-ray and proton irradiation have been reported to induce distinct modifications in cytokine expression in vitro and in vivo, suggesting a dissimilar inflammatory response between X-rays and protons. We aimed to investigate the differences i...
The ability to deploy decentralized laboratories with autonomous and reliable disease diagnosis holds the potential to deliver accessible healthcare services for public safety. While microfluidic technologies provide precise manipulation of small flu...
COVID-19 outbreak brings intense pressure on healthcare systems, with an urgent demand for effective diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic procedures. Here, we employed Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) to analyze three publicly available high thr...
BACKGROUND: Although a preponderance of pre-clinical data demonstrates the immunosuppressive potential of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), significant heterogeneity and lack of critical quality attributes (CQAs) based on immunosuppressive capacity l...

OBJECTIVE: Cytokines have regulatory and leading roles in the immunopathogenesis of oral lichen planus (OLP). Here, we present the findings of a meta-analysis that evaluated serum and salivary interferon-γ (IFN-γ) levels in patients with OLP compared...
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this verification study was to compare the QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus (QFT-Plus) to the QuantiFERON-TB Gold In Tube (QFT-GIT). The new QFT-Plus test contains an extra antigen tube which, according to the manufacturer additionally...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Immunosuppression therapy following lung transplantation fails to prevent chronic rejection in many patients, which is associated with lack of suppression of cytotoxic mediators and pro-inflammatory cytokines in peripheral b...
