Meta-Analysis of Genetic Variants Associated With HBV Infection Susceptibility and Hepatocellular Carcinoma Risk. (PubMed, J Viral Hepat)
Based on these results, our meta-analysis brings together many studies to give a clearer picture of the genetic factors that influence HBV infection and HCC in different etiologic pathways. We found that immune-related genes and HLA class II variants seem to have roles in HBV persistence, while metabolic gene variants are major contributors to HCC risk.

IL1R1 blockade augments CD40 agonist mediated immunity in pancreatic cancer. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
The efficacy of the CD40 agonist was partially dependent on CD8⁺ T cells. Our findings underscore the complex role of IL-1 signaling in modulating immune responses in PDAC and caution against pursuing IL-1R1 blockade, either as monotherapy or combined with agonistic CD40 antibodies, in clinical trials for PDAC.

CD83 as a novel prognostic biomarker for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma arising in immune deficiency/dysregulation among rheumatoid arthritis patients treated with methotrexate. (PubMed, J Clin Exp Hematop)
Multivariate analysis identified CD83 IHC high expression as an independent predictor of non-SR cases. High CD83 expression is an independent prognostic factor in MTX-associated IDD-DLBCL, and combined evaluation may refine risk stratification and guide clinical decisions.

New Schiff Base Derivative Triazines: Their Synthesis, Molecular Docking Studies, and Anticancer Activities in Human Lung Cancer Cells. (PubMed, Chem Biol Drug Des)
The drug-likeness potential of the TrzSchf derivatives was evaluated based on Lipinski's Rule of Five parameters. Overall, both experimental and computational results suggest that TrzSchf 1-3 are promising lead candidates for further investigation in lung cancer therapy.

NF-κB pathway gene expression is elevated in the midbrain of people with high-inflammation schizophrenia. (PubMed, Brain Behav Immun)
Together, these findings support that increased NF-κB induces cytokine mRNA expression in schizophrenia midbrain via multiple upstream activators and cell types. The widespread increase in multiple NF-κB transcripts highlights both redundant activation mechanisms and a putative attempt to control NF-κB activation.

A CRISPR-Cas9 screen Reveals STEEP1 as a Key Host Dependency Factor for Epstein-Barr Virus Latent Membrane Protein 1 Trafficking and Signaling. (PubMed, bioRxiv)
This analysis identified an ER-resident protein called STEEP1, previously implicated in support of trafficking of the DNA sensor STING, as a key LMP1 partner.We found that STEEP1 associates with LMP1 and supports LMP1 trafficking out of the endoplasmic reticulum to cellular signaling sites. As STEEP1 knockout impaired LMP1 function and LCL survival, our study identifies the STEEP1/LMP1 complex as a therapeutic target.

Elevation of Liver Elastic Value Following Radiofrequency Ablation Reflected Neutrophils Mediated Abscopal Effect in Liver Cancer. (PubMed, JHEP Rep)
We linked clinical features to neutrophil-mediated immunity post-RFA. Neutrophil-activating therapy like CD40 agonists may prevent HCC relapse after RFA.

Smart nano-assembly from traditional Chinese medicine: manganese-enhanced polysaccharide platform for orchestrated cancer chemo-immunotherapy. (PubMed, J Adv Res)
The LUT@POP-FH-Mn synergistically combines natural compounds and metal ions, improving drug delivery and efficacy through integrated chemotherapy, CDT, and immunotherapy. This work provides an innovative model for modernizing traditional Chinese medicine and demonstrates the promise of natural product-based nanomedicine for combined cancer therapy.

Gene Network Enrichment Analysis and Its Application to Explore Enriched Immune Disease Pathways for Gene Network of Acute Myeloid Leukemia Cell Lines. (PubMed, J Comput Biol)
Our results suggested that "activation of CD40 and CD40LG" and "mutual activation between HLA-DPB1 and IL4R" are potential markers to uncover AML-related mechanisms. Overall, this study demonstrates that GNEA provides a powerful framework for uncovering biologically meaningful interaction-level insights into complex diseases.

Focused Ultrasound Thermal Ablation and CD40 Agonism Reprograms Breast Tumor Immunity to Drive Regression and Memory. (PubMed, bioRxiv)
Together, these findings establish T-FUS as an immune-potentiating partner for CD40 agonism, capable of driving durable, robust BC regression and immunological memory. This work positions T-FUS+CD40 agonism as a clinically scalable, in situ vaccination-like strategy with potential to benefit breast cancers, including luminal subtypes, that remain largely refractory to immune checkpoint blockade.

CD79A/CD40 intracellular domain uses a 4-1BB-like metabolic pathway driven by cholesterol biosynthesis. (PubMed, J Immunother Cancer)
CD79A/CD40 CAR-T cells exhibit unique metabolic adaptations, including early glycolytic activation, sustained OXPHOS, and upregulated cholesterol metabolism, which together may underpin their enhanced proliferation and persistence. Targeting cholesterol metabolism may represent a novel strategy to optimize CAR-T cell function and improve therapeutic outcomes.
