This review discusses how PTM changes in macrophages caused by viral infections can lead to a long-lasting, pro-inflammatory state that could tip the balance of intestinal immunity toward chronic IBD. We elucidate the functions of traditional PTMs such as phosphorylation, ubiquitination, SUMOylation, acetylation, and glycosylation, in conjunction with emerging modifications such as lactylation and citrullination (deimination).

Flavivirus infections can cause ocular complications that are usually self-limiting but can result in irreversible visual impairment and vision loss. These complications can affect both the anterior and posterior segments of the eye, and symptoms can range from mild conjunctivitis to more severe conditions like uveitis and even the inflammation of the optic nerve. Ocular inflammation often arises from the immune system's response to viral infections. In ocular Flavivirus infections, the immune response aims to protect the eye, but it can sometimes lead to inflammation and tissue damage.

Additionally, we examine how Type 2 diabetes(T2DM) mellitus impacts this process, as its associated metabolic disturbances exacerbate mitochondrial vulnerability to radiation and create an immunosuppressive milieu that compromises the tumor immune landscape.
