Intestinal mRNA expression analysis of polarity ‐related genes identified the discriminatory ability of CRB3 as a diagnostic marker for celiac disease
ConclusionThe aim of the current study was to evaluate the changes in the mRNA expression levels ofSCRIB,PRKCZ,LKB1, andCRB3 genes in the small intestinal biopsy samples of CD patients in comparison to the healthy control subjects. Our data uncover the importance of polarity-related genes (especiallyCRB3) in CD pahtomechanism, that may facilitate the planning of the future studies looking for finding innovative diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for CD.

Autophagy ‐related genes polymorphism in hepatitis B virus‐associated hepatocellular carcinoma: A systematic review
ConclusionThe current study highlights the importance of rs2241880 in ATG16L1 and rs77859116, rs510432, and rs548234 in ATG5 for HBV-induced HCC. Additionally, some mutations in ATG16L1 and ATG5 were important in risk of HBV infection. The study highlights the gap of knowledge in the field of ATG polymorphisms in HBV infection and HBV-induced HCC. (Source: Immunity, Inflammation and Disease)

Three cases of systemic lupus erythematosus presenting with ischemic stroke as the initial symptom: Case reports and literature review
ConclusionIn young patients, particularly females presenting with ischemic stroke and especially in cases accompanied by hematologic or multisystemic involvement, there should be heightened vigilance for SLE-induced ischemic stroke. Early diagnosis and treatment significantly enhance patients' quality of life and survival rates. (Source: Immunity, Inflammation and Disease)

Distinct cross talk of IL ‐17 & TGF ‐β with the immature CD11c+TRAF6(−/−)‐null myeloid dendritic cell‐derived osteoclast precursor (mDDOCp) may engage signaling toward an alternative pathway of osteoclastogenesis for arthritic bone loss in vivo
ConclusionThese results confirm and substantiate the validity of TRAF6( −/−)-null chimeras to address the significance of immature mCD11c+TRAP+DC-like OCs/mDDOCp subset for an alternative pathway of arthritic bone loss in vivo. Such CD11c+mDCs/mDDOCp-associated osteoclastogenesis through the step-wise twist-in-turns osteo-immune cross talks are thereby theme highlighted to depict a summative re-visitation proposed.

Genetic determinants of SARS ‐CoV‐2 and the clinical outcome of COVID‐19 in Southern Bangladesh
ConclusionOur study identifies some risk factors such as age comorbidities (diabetes, hypertension, and renal disease) that are associated with severe COVID-19, providing valuable insight regarding prioritizing vaccination for high-risk individuals and allocating health care and resources. The findings of this work outlined the knowledge and mutational basis of SARS-CoV-2 for the next treatment steps. Further studies are needed to confirm the effects of structural and functional proteins of SARS-CoV-2 in detail for monitoring the emergence of new variants in future.

The role of the CX3CL1/CX3CR1 axis as potential inflammatory biomarkers in subjects with periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis: A systematic review
ConclusionVery few studies highlight the role of the CX3CL1/CX3CR1 axis in the pathogenesis of periodontitis; however, increased levels of these chemokines are observed in different biological samples (GCF, gingival tissue, saliva, and serum) from subjects with periodontitis and RA compared with their healthy controls. Future studies should focus on long-term follow-up of subjects and monitoring changes in cytokine levels before and after periodontal therapy to deduce an appropriate interval in health and disease conditions.

Sirtuin2 suppresses the polarization of regulatory T cells toward T helper 17 cells through repressing the expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 in a mouse colitis model
ConclusionSirt2 suppresses Treg function but also inhibits Treg polarization toward Treg/Th17 cells and Th17 cells. The ultimate effect of Sirt2 on colitis might depend on the balance among Tregs, Treg/Th17 cells, and Th17 cells. (Source: Immunity, Inflammation and Disease)

Timing of initial symptom onset during milk and wheat challenges: A retrospective study
ConclusionThis multicenter study was the first to examine the time of symptom appearance during single-medium-dose milk and wheat challenges. Allergic reactions to wheat appear later than those for milk during OFC. For multiadministration OFC for wheat, the dosing interval should be longer than 60  min. Our findings can help improve the safety of OFCs. (Source: Immunity, Inflammation and Disease)
