Differentiating between bacterial and viral infections by estimated CRP velocity

Michal Largman-Chalamish et al.

Summary: This study utilized estimated C-reactive protein velocity (eCRPv) to differentiate between acute viral and bacterial infections. By dividing the admission CRP level by time from symptom onset, eCRPv can provide a rapid and accurate differentiation, especially for patients with high CRP values.

CD4+CD25+ T regulatory cells in renal transplantation

Jason Cheung et al.

Summary: The immune response to an allograft can activate lymphocytes that cause rejection. The activation of T regulatory cells can reduce allograft rejection and induce immune tolerance. Activated T regulatory cells can be distinguished by various markers. A more detailed characterization of these cells may help reduce non-specific immunosuppression.

FOXP3 exon 2 controls Treg stability and autoimmunity

Jianguang Du et al.

Summary: In this study, researchers discovered that the human FOXP3 gene encodes two major isoforms through alternative splicing. Patients who only express the shorter isoform may develop immunodeficiency and autoimmune diseases. Mice with the deletion of Foxp3 exon 2 also develop autoimmune diseases. The FOXP3 Delta E2 isoform allows increased expression of certain cytokines while decreasing the expression of positive regulators of Foxp3, leading to an unstable regulatory T cell phenotype.

Role of High-Sensitivity C-reactive Protein (Hs-CRP) in Non-communicable Diseases: A Review

Tanvi Banait et al.

Summary: This review article discusses the role of Hs-CRP and its isoforms in the pathogenesis of various disease conditions, factors affecting its serum concentration, its prognostic value, and its comparison with other risk factors. Further, its clinical significance in chronic inflammatory and degenerative diseases of the nervous system and other common non-communicable diseases, including recent advances in the management of various diseases, has also been discussed.

Immunosuppressive Agents and Infectious Risk in Transplantation: Managing the Net State of Immunosuppression

Matthew B. Roberts et al.

Summary: Successful solid organ transplantation requires meticulous attention to immunosuppression details, balancing rejection and infection risks. The state of immune suppression serves as a conceptual framework for infectious risk, with a lack of assays measuring immune function. Adjusting immunosuppression during infections is rarely studied, leading to management largely based on clinical experience.

Basiliximab impairs regulatory T cell (TREG) function and could affect the short-term graft acceptance in children with heart transplantation

Jacobo Lopez-Abente et al.

Summary: The study found that basiliximab (BXM) reduces Treg counts and function in vitro by affecting their proliferation, Foxp3 expression, and IL-10 secretion capacity. In pediatric heart transplant patients, BXM-treated patients showed decreased Treg counts and a diminished Treg/Teff ratio at 6 months post-treatment, returning to baseline values by the end of the 12-month follow-up period. These findings suggest that using BXM could have detrimental effects on Tregs and may impair their protective role during the period of highest incidence of acute graft rejection.

CD4+CD25+CD127-Foxp3+and CD8+CD28-Tregs in Renal Transplant Recipients: Phenotypic Patterns, Association With Immunosuppressive Drugs, and Interaction With Effector CD8+T Cells and CD19+IL-10+Bregs

Mostafa G. G. Aly et al.

Summary: In this study, the relationship between regulatory cells and immunosuppressive drugs in transplant recipients was investigated. The results showed a negative correlation between CD4+CD25+CD127-Foxp3+ Tregs and CD19+IL-10+ Bregs in early transplant recipients, with Tregs being affected by steroid dose and tacrolimus levels, while Bregs seemed less affected by potent immunosuppression. It was also found that CD4+CD25+CD127-Foxp3+ Tregs were lower in patients treated with certain antibodies compared to end-stage kidney disease patients. Early transplant recipients exhibited different patterns of Tregs and Bregs within the first 3 months post-transplant, indicating a complex relationship between these regulatory cells and immunosuppression.

IL-2 Signaling Axis Defects: How Many Faces?

Filippo Consonni et al.

Summary: The proteins CD25, STAT5B, and FOXP3 are crucial in the IL-2 signaling pathway in Tregs, and mutations in these proteins can lead to Treg disorders with autoimmune manifestations. Although these disorders share a common biological background and similar clinical features, each syndrome has specific phenotypes.

The role of C-reactive protein in predicting the severity of COVID-19 disease: A systematic review

Getachew Yideg Yitbarek et al.

Summary: This review evaluated the potential of C-reactive protein as a biomarker in predicting clinical outcomes and severity of COVID-19. Findings suggest that higher levels of C-reactive protein are associated with severe cases of COVID-19, indicating its potential in predicting disease progression. Further large-scale studies are needed to confirm these findings.
