- ( ) infects the gastric epithelium of approximately half of the global population, and is a well-known risk factor for developing gastric cancer. Despite the clinical significance of infection, many genetic factors that contribute to susceptibility remain unidentified. While it is well-established that infection can result in gastritis and peptic ulcers, which may progress to gastric cancer, its causal link to other diseases remains unclear. We performed the genome-wide association study (GWAS) for anti- IgG antibody titers, which were validated as a surrogate marker for infection by the correlation with clinical traits, followed by gene-based and pathway analyses, involving up to 140,863 individuals. This included 56,967 in the discovery phase, and 68,211 in the replication phase from Japanese cohorts, and an additional 15,685 from European populations in a cross-ancestry meta-analysis. We reveal significant associations between infection and polymorphisms in the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) class II region within the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC), as well as genes related to innate immunity, including , , , , and . Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis revealed that genetic liability to infection has both positive and negative causal relationships with a variety of diseases, including autoimmune-related diseases such as Type 1 diabetes, Hashimoto's disease, atopic dermatitis, as well as traits like body height and weight. These genetic findings strongly support the notion that genetic liability to infection influences not only gastrointestinal diseases, but also a broader spectrum of health issues, thereby providing valuable insights for public health strategies and personalized medicine approaches. - Source: PubMed

Previously, we found that QHD could ameliorate Candida colitis through Dectin-1 associated pathway, but was rather weak against Candida albicans in vitro. - Source: PubMed

Wang ZixuWang XueLuo QinaiLiu ChengchengZhu HanyuYang LiuWang ChangzhongPeng HuiYu QingshengHu MinShao Jing - Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a re-emerging arbovirus causing acute febrile illness and chronic debilitating arthritis, thereby imposing significant global public health and economic burdens. While robust immune responses involving inflammatory cytokines and immune cell infiltration characterize acute infection, the cellular mechanisms underlying pathogenesis and chronicity remain incompletely defined. In this study, we employed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to comprehensively profile splenic and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) immune responses in rhesus macaques at day 7 post CHIKV infection, an acute phase. Splenic neutrophils marked recruitment, upregulation of , downregulation of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), and functional activation marked by degranulation, enhanced anti-apoptotic pathways, and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) formation, as visualized by multiplex immunofluorescence. Pseudotime trajectories delineated progressive states transitioning from proliferation to effector functions. Splenic T and B cells showed increased abundance with innate-to-adaptive transition signature. Splenic CD4 and CD8 T cell subsets and B cell subsets exhibited enrichment for innate immune pathways and translational machinery. In PBMCs, CD8 T cell subsets and B cell subsets exhibited activation of adhesion, cytokine signaling, and protein homeostasis pathways in infection group. Notably, CHIKV infection induced skewing of T cells toward states enriched for Th1 and Th17 differentiation (marked by expression) in PBMCs. These results delineate the spatiotemporal immune landscape during CHIKV acute phase, in this non-human primate model, identifying neutrophil-mediated inflammation, lymphocyte transcriptional adaptation, and Th1/Th17 polarization as hallmarks of acute phase, offering a detailed cellular map that may inform future investigations into CHIKV pathogenesis and therapeutic strategies. - Source: PubMed

Although the highly effective CFTR modulator therapy (Elexacaftor-Tezacaftor-Ivacaftor, ETI) has dramatically improved respiratory outcomes in pwCF, airway inflammation and bacterial colonization persist in the upper and lower respiratory tracts. - Source: PubMed

However, the molecular basis of neutrophil-driven immunosuppression remains unclear. This study aimed to identify and validate hub genes regulating neutrophil immunosuppression in sepsis to uncover potential therapeutic targets. - Source: PubMed
