However, menopause, which marks the loss of ovarian function, introduces a significant shift.

The non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse is widely used as an experimental model for T1D because it closely mirrors the genetic and immune characteristics of the human disease. One key similarity between human T1D and the NOD mouse model is the associated HLA/MHC class II variant that alters the repertoire of CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells potentially leading to the initiation of disease. In addition, type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1s) play an essential role in disease development through cross-presentation of β-cell antigens to CD8<sup>+</sup> and CD4<sup>+</sup> T cells. Notably, inhibiting this cross-presentation has been shown to prevent T1D in NOD mice. Therefore, as we strive to find strategies to inhibit T1D onset and progression, insights from NOD mice provide important guidance for understanding human T1D and for developing targeted immunotherapies.</p>","PeriodicalId":74203,"journal":{"name":"Missouri medicine","volume":"123 2","pages":"124-129"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13160472/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147936157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, their autologous nature limits scalability, and increases production time and manufacturing costs. Additionally, CAR-T cell administration can result in severe toxicities, including cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity. To address these issues, allogeneic, natural killer (NK) cells are being explored as an alternative. NK cells are cytotoxic lymphocytes that play a pivotal role in tumor surveillance and eradication. Unlike T cells, NK cells can identify and eliminate targets without MHC restriction or prior sensitization. Furthermore, NK cells exhibit enhanced responses after exposure to virus infections or cytokine activation (cytokine induced memory-like). Allogeneic NK cell therapies offer a promising alternative to autologous cell therapies, with reduced risk of graft-versus-host disease and rapid availability.

Ambient artificial intelligence (AI) scribe technology, such as Nuance's Dragon Ambient eXperience (DAX), has emerged as a tool to automate clinical documentation via transcribing and summarizing patient-clinician interactions. Studies demonstrate reductions in documentation time, after-hours work, and clinician-reported burnout, alongside improvements in efficiency, patient engagement, and patient and clinician satisfaction. Challenges remain, however, regarding data privacy, algorithmic bias, regulatory oversight, and clinical validation. In the future, ambient AI scribes will evolve beyond transcription, integrating prior patient records, and expand into allied health fields, including nursing.
