Why Do Intestinal Epithelial Cells Express MHC Class II?

Recent studies investigating the role of MHC class II+ exosomes released by Intestinal epithelial cells report conflicting findings of either immune enhancing or immunosuppressive activities. In addition to modulating inflammatory responses, recent findings suggest that MHC class II expression by intestinal stem cells may elicit crosstalk that promotes epithelial renewal.

Understanding Lipotoxicity in NAFLD Pathogenesis: Is CD36 a Key Driver?

Investigators provide succinct insights into the molecular mechanisms responsible for lipotoxicity in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), including ER and oxidative stress, autophagy, lipoapotosis and inflammation. They highlight the role of CD36/FAT fatty acid translocase in NAFLD pathogenesis.

WNT–β-Catenin Signaling – A Versatile Player in Kidney Injury and Repair

WNT–β-catenin signaling is involved in chronic kidney disease-associated vascular calcification and mineral bone disease. The WNT–β-catenin pathway is tightly regulated, for example, by proteins of the Dickkopf family.

Neurological Complications Associated with the Blood-Brain Barrier Damage Induced by the Inflammatory Response during SARS-CoV-2 Infection

Scientists analyze and described the possible mechanisms causative of brain injury after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. They propose that potential routes of SARS-CoV-2 neuro-invasion are determinant factors in the process.

Translational Neuroendocrinology of Human Skin: Concepts and Perspectives

The authors focus on how neurohormones impact human skin physiology and pathology. They highlight basic concepts, major open questions, and translational research perspectives in cutaneous neuroendocrinology and argue that greater emphasis on neuroendocrine human skin research will foster the development of novel dermatological therapies.

Cellular Heterogeneity and Microenvironmental Control of Skin Cancer

In this review, focusing on the skin, scientists investigate potential key mechanisms that ensure tissue homeostasis despite the presence of mutant cells, as well as critical factors that may nudge the balance from homeostasis to tumor formation.
