TIF1γ regulates stability of regulatory T cells during inflammation

It is shown that TIF1γ-deficient Treg cells lose Foxp3 expression and acquire effector phenotypes in a cell-intrinsic manner upon inflammatory challenge, and TIF1γ is identified as a critical regulator of Treg cell stability that restrains β-catenin–TCF7 signaling.

Single-cell gene regulatory networks characterize colonic stem and immune cell homeostasis in Nr4a1 knockout mice

Summary Recent findings suggest that the orphan nuclear receptor 4A (NR4A) can regulate cellular energetics and epithelial defenses, contributing to a resilient, disease-resistant phenotype. To further examine the effects of NR4A on intestinal epithelial, stromal, and immune cell homeostasis, we performed single-cell t...

Dysregulated IL-2 signaling and T-cell subset shifts are associated with eosinophilic esophagitis activity

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic immune-mediated disorder of the esophagus. However, the T-cell transcriptional programs distinguishing active disease from remission remain incompletely understood. In this study, we applied single-cell RNA sequencing to esophageal biopsies obtained from normal subjects and p...

TGM2 Activates the ERK Signaling Pathway to Disrupt Intestinal Barrier Function and Aggravate Colitis.

BACKGROUND PANoptosis-related transcriptional programs may contribute to pediatric ulcerative colitis (UC), but the genes most consistently associated with disease activity and epithelial injury remain uncertain. METHODS Public transcriptomic cohorts were integrated with machine-learning feature selection, treatment-...

Propionate promotes CD8+ T-cell infiltration and enhances immunotherapy efficacy in colorectal cancer

Abstract Background Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) produced by the gut microbiota are increasingly recognized as regulators of host immunity, yet the role of individual SCFAs in shaping the tumor immune microenvironment in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains poorly defined. This study aims to investigate the role of propi...
