IMAGE OF THE MONTH JUNE 2026

Parasitic eggs of Trichuris trichuria under microscopic examination of a f***l smear of a 5 year old Temuan Orang Asli boy. These eggs are characteristic in their barrel-shaped appearance, with distinct polar plugs at each end. Intestinal parasitic infections remain a significant public health concern among the Orang Asli, largely due to their low socioeconomic status, inadequate sanitation, and poor hygiene practices.

IMMB Research Talk | IRT Series 03/2026 | 13052026

IMMB was honoured to host Dr. Lam Su Datt from the Department of Applied Physics, Faculty of Science and Technology, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia for an insightful research talk titled “Development of an AI-Based Predictor for Gain- and Loss-of-function Protein Mutations.”
The session highlighted the development of artificial intelligence-based approaches in predicting the functional impact of protein mutations, particularly in distinguishing gain- and loss-of-function variants. The talk also sparked engaging discussions among participants on the growing role of AI and computational biology in advancing precision medicine and biomedical research.

We extend our sincere appreciation to Dr. Lam Su Datt for sharing his valuable knowledge and expertise with the IMMB community.

The Blue Silence

The Blue Silence reveals a quiet surrender within the once vibrant landscape of endothelial cells. What appears as gentle blue staining is, in truth, the signature of time prematurely imposed. Following exposure to hydrogen peroxide, an invisible surge of oxidative stress ripples through the cytoplasm, overwhelming the cell's delicate redox balance. Mitochondria falter, DNA damage signals persist, and the machinery of renewal slowly grinds to a halt. The SA-ẞ-Gal stain does not merely color the cells, it chronicles their transition into senescence, a state where life continues without growth. Each blue marked cell stands as evidence of survival without function, a biological pause enforced by oxidative injury. What should have been a dynamic monolayer of of regeneration becomes a field of arrested vitality, where the echoes of stress are preserved in cobalt hues across the cellular canvas.

Hepatocellular ballooning

The liver of mice fed a high-fat diet (Western-type) under H&E staining captured the enlarged and swollen hepatocytes with collapsed cytoskeleton in rarefied cytoplasm. This is a histologic hallmark of apoptosis and fibrosis, primarily found in liver injuries after persistent inflammation and insulin resistance. This proves that the prolonged consumption of the diet creates a stressful, toxic environment for liver cells, causing the situation beyond the normal insult. Remarkably, this scenario mimics the hypercaloric diet lifestyles among modern societies, as recorded in public health statistics.

IMMB Research Talk | IRT Series 02/2026 | 08042026

IMMB was honoured to host Prof. Dr. Mohd Nasir Bin Mohd Desa from the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Universiti Putra Malaysia for an insightful research talk titled “Pneumococcal Genotyping: From Laboratory to Public Action.”

The session highlighted the significance of pneumococcal genotyping in bridging laboratory research with real-world public health applications. It also fostered meaningful discussions among participants on the role of molecular epidemiology in disease prevention and control.

We extend our sincere appreciation to Prof. Dr. Mohd Nasir for sharing his valuable knowledge and expertise with the IMMB community.

Pagi raya pakai kebaya,
Berseri wajah penuh bahagia,
Andai tersalah kata dan bicara,
Maaf dipinta sepenuh jiwa.

Salam Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir dan Batin.
Terima kasih.

Ikhlas,

An SEM view of a confluent Caco-2 monolayer on a Transwell insert, where a high TEER value (826 Ωcm²) highlights the formation of a tight, functional intestinal epithelial barrier. The Transwell system enables polarised cell growth by separating apical and basolateral compartments, closely mimicking the intestinal epithelium. Under these conditions, Caco-2 cells differentiate into enterocyte-like cells representative of the human small intestine which is used as an in vitro model to study intestinal barrier function and permeability.
