All in ICU were diagnosed critical type upon admission. Blood was taken within 24 hours, followed by examination blood NE level urine level. Other clinical features recorded. A logistic regression model used predict total 83 diagnosed, including 52 cases 31 cases. The group showed significantly elevated Neutrophil%, Cr, D-dimer (DD), Procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP). Meanwhile, CD3-cell, T4-cell, Lymphocyte% lower group.

Although an ongoing understanding of psoriasis vulgaris (PV) pathogenesis, little is known about the proteomic differences between moderate and severe psoriasis. In this cross-sectional study, we evaluated using data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS). 173 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were significantly two groups. Among them, 85 upregulated, while 88 downregulated (FC ≥ ± 1.5, P < 0.05). Eighteen DEPs mainly enriched in IL − 17 signalling pathway, Neutrophil extracellular trap formation, degranulation NF kappa B which associated with pathogenesis. Ingenuity pathway Analysis (IPA) identified TNF TDP53 as top upstream up-regulators, Lipopolysaccharide YAP1 potential down-regulators. The main active pathways antimicrobial peptides PTEN signalling, inhibitory neutrophil degranulation, IL-8 signalling. 4D-parallel reaction monitoring (4D-PRM) suggested that KRT6A Our data identify biomarkers disease severity, are defence response to bacterium. Targeting these molecules measures manage infection may improve psoriasis's severity therapeutic efficacy.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterized by chronic respiratory infections and excessive inflammation, driven both host- pathogen-derived proteases. The dysregulated activity of proteolytic enzymes such as neutrophil elastase (NE), cathepsin G, matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) degrades lung tissue, exacerbates airway remodeling, perpetuates inflammatory cycles. Concurrently, bacterial proteases from pathogens Pseudomonas aeruginosa Staphylococcus aureus contribute to immune evasion tissue destruction, compounding disease severity. Despite advances in antimicrobial anti-inflammatory therapies, protease-driven damage remains a critical challenge. This review examines the dual role host CF pathophysiology, highlighting emerging protease-targeted therapies aimed at mitigating inflammation. Strategies explored include inhibition NE, MMPs, proteases, with focus on innovative therapeutic approaches dual-function inhibitors, biologics, advanced drug delivery systems. By restoring protease–antiprotease balance, these interventions offer potential improve clinical outcomes quality life for patients.

It is estimated that more than 150 million individuals alive in 2020 had survived tuberculosis (TB). A portion of this large population continues to experience chronic respiratory abnormalities, with or without symptoms, due previous active pulmonary TB. This condition known as Post-TB Lung Disease (PTLD), involves a complex interaction between pathogen, host and environmental factors. These interactions are believed drive hyperinflammatory process the lungs during TB, resulting tissue damage, which may lead radiological sequelae, impaired function, clinical such cough, dyspnea, hemoptysis, infections. Such complications impose significant health, financial, social burdens, remain poorly understood inadequately addressed by health care systems. Given heterogeneity immune cells their products infiltrating airways lung parenchyma acute inflammation caused Mycobacterium infection, it evident TB immunopathology multifactorial. Among various components involved, neutrophils have recently emerged critical contributors deleterious response against leading severe damage. In translational narrative review, we aim summarize role primary - proteases (such elastase), matrix metalloproteinases extracellular traps (NETs) We highlight new concepts emerging evidence neutrophil involvement disease, translating these insights from "bench bedside" facilitate dialogue fundamental researchers practitioners.

Neutrophils, as key components of the tumor microenvironment, play a crucial role in cancer progression and prognosis. This study aimed to identify neutrophil-related gene signature improve prognostic predictions explore potential immunotherapy targets for glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients. Through co-expression analysis, 60 neutrophil-associated genes were identified, showing significant enrichment 159 Gene Ontology terms eight KEGG pathways. Among these, 10 significantly associated with patient survival, leading development six-gene risk model termed Neutrophil-Related Prognostic Index (NRGPI). The NRGPI predicted overall survival (OS) both training validation cohorts (p < 0.05), enhanced accuracy when combined clinicopathological factors. Higher scores correlated worse OS, increased mortality, more aggressive disease progression. Immune profiling linked immune cell infiltration, checkpoint expression, mutation burden, suggesting its identifying candidates immunotherapy. identified genes, FN1 emerged central regulator, composition poor Pan-cancer analysis revealed consistent upregulation across types, underscoring broad clinical relevance. Additionally, tissue microarray using multiplex immunofluorescence on 84 GBM samples confirmed FN1, SDC1, TWIST1, higher levels reduced survival.
