By Nzekwe Samuel C, Babarinde Samuel O., Morakinyo Adetoun E., Boladale Abiodun L., Adeyemo Tolulope A., Kehinde Damilale O., Adeyemo Temitayo A., Ogundinmu Marvelous O., Oyebamiji David A., Oladunni Opeyemi, Okorie Anyaele O., Adejumobi Musibau O., Ayeleso Ademola O., Odaibo Alexander B.

Abstract: Lymphatic filariasis (LF) remains a neglected tropical disease affecting millions globally, despite extensive elimination efforts. While the interruption of transmission is a key goal, the long-term immunological effects on individuals with existing complications like elephantiasis remain poorly understood. This study assessed the current transmission status of LF and the haematological profiles of infected individuals across selected Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Osun State, Nigeria. A total of 7,388 individuals from …

Long non-coded RNA, cancer, immune cells, tumor micro-environment, immuno-oncology, immune escape, cancer-immune cycle, lncRNA signature
By Tshetiz Dahal, Prabhat Moktan, Sumit Prajapati

Abstract: Developing data from current research reveals fresh insights into the roles played by long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in immuno-oncology. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) not only influence the aggressiveness of cancer cells but also play a crucial role in controlling different immune cells and stromal cells, which in turn changes the tumor micro-environment and impacts anti-tumor immunity. The significance of predictive indicators derived from long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is underscored by …
