  • Together, METTL3 is a therapeutic target in NAFLD-HCC, especially in conjunction with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. (bvsalud.org)
  • Eat a gut-friendly diet, including lots of plants, that support optimal immune function. (naturalnews.com)
  • While most people understand the importance of a balanced diet, regular exercise, and sufficient sleep for immune function, there is another crucial factor that often goes overlooked: gut health. (peptiko.gr)
  • This network, known as gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT), plays a pivotal role in immune function. (peptiko.gr)
  • Safe, reliable strategies for the induction of full tolerance have not yet been developed. (medscape.com)
  • Given the emerging role of immunotherapies for AML, our findings support the incorporation of immune biomarkers into current AML classification and prognostication algorithms. (ntu.ac.uk)
