Discovery of epitope-specific T-cell receptors (TCRs) for cancer therapies is a time consuming and expensive procedure that usually requires a large amount of patient cells. To maximize information from and minimize the need of precious samples in ca...
OBJECTIVES: We hypothesized that the immunosuppressive effects associated with antibiotics, sedatives, and catecholamines amplify sepsis-associated immune suppression through mitochondrial dysfunction, and there is a cumulative effect when used in co...

Antigen-specific B-cell ELISPOT and multicolor FluoroSpot assays, in which the membrane-bound antigen itself serves as the capture reagent for the antibodies that B cells secrete, inherently result in a broad range of spot sizes and intensities. The ...
BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a prevalent chronic disease marked by significant metabolic dysfunctions. Understanding its molecular mechanisms is vital for early diagnosis and treatment strategies.
PURPOSE: Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains a challenging disease due to its complex biology and aggressive behavior with an urgent need for efficient therapeutic strategies. To assess therapy response, pre-clinical PDAC organoid-based m...
Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are tumor cells that separate from the solid tumor and enter the bloodstream, which can cause metastasis. Detection and enumeration of CTCs show promising potential as a predictor for prognosis in cancer patients. Furth...
Septic cardiomyopathy (SCM) is characterized by an abnormal inflammatory response and increased mortality. The role of efferocytosis in SCM is not well understood. We used integrated multi-omics analysis to explore the clinical and genetic roles of e...
BACKGROUND: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) with radiographic damage is more prevalent in men than in women. IL-17, which is mainly secreted from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), plays an important role in the development of AS. Its expression...
BACKGROUND: The coronavirus pandemic that started in 2019 has caused the highest mortality and morbidity rates worldwide. Data on the role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is scarce. We aimed to elucidate the r...
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a multifactorial disease that lacks reliable biomarkers for its diagnosis. It is now clear that aging is the greatest risk factor for developing PD. Therefore, it is necessary to identify novel biomarkers associated with a...
