Cellulose acetate phthalate, a common pharmaceutical excipient, inactivates HIV-1 and blocks the coreceptor binding site on the virus envelope glycoprotein gp120 [PDF]

, 2001
BACKGROUND: Cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP), a pharmaceutical excipient used for enteric film coating of capsules and tablets, was shown to inhibit infection by the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and several herpesviruses. CAP formulations

Macrophage Zc3h12c Limits Tissue Inflammation and Injury via Alternative Splicing of Pre‐mRNA

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work defines the context‐dependent function of Zc3h12c in macrophages using the Tnfrsf11a‐Cre system. It reveals Zc3h12c's dual mechanism—regulating RNA degradation and alternative splicing—with STAT1 as a key target. The findings elucidate a novel post‐transcriptional pathway and identify STAT1 isoforms as potential therapeutic targets for kidney

Regulation of CCR5 expression in human placenta: insights from a study of mother-to-child transmission of HIV in Malawi. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
Human promoter polymorphisms in the chemokine co-receptor 5 gene (CCR5) have been noted for association with mother-to-child transmission of HIV (HIV MTCT) as well as reduced receptor expression in vitro, but have not been clearly associated with CCR5 ...

CCR5 promoter polymorphisms, CCR5 59029A and CCR5 59353C, are under represented in HIV-1-infected long-term non-progressors

AIDS, 2000
Objective To determine the influence of CCR5 promoter polymorphisms on HIV-1 progression to AIDS and to evaluate the interaction between CCR5 structural polymorphisms and those occurring in the regulatory region of the same gene. Participants Seventy-one HIV-1-infected long-term non-progressors with a CD4+ T cell count of > 500 x 10(6)/I more than 8

An LCN2‐Dependent Positive‐Feedback Loop Between Gastric Cancer Cells and Tumor‐Associated‐Macrophages Mediates Lymphangiogenesis and Lymphatic Metastasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, the expression and function of LCN2 in GC is aimed to investigate and elucidate the mechanisms by which the LCN2‐dependent positive‐feedback loop between GC cells and TAMs drives lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic metastasis. These findings suggest that LCN2 may serve as a potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target in GC ...

The frequency of CCR5 promoter polymorphisms and CCR5 Δ 32 mutation in Iranian populations.

Iranian journal of basic medical sciences, 2015
Evidence showed that chemokines serve as pro-migratory factors for immune cells. CCL3, CCL4 and CCL5, as the main CC chemokines subfamily members, activate immune cells through binding to CC chemokine receptor 5 or CCR5. Macrophages, NK cells and T lymphocytes express CCR5 and thus, affected CCR5 expression or functions could be associated with altered

Insights into the Mechanisms of Immune‐Checkpoint Inhibitors Gained from Spatiotemporal Dynamics of the Tumor Microenvironment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review summarizes recent advances in the spatiotemporal dynamics of the tumor microenvironment (TME). It highlights the roles of diverse immune and stromal cell populations, spatial architecture of the TME, as well as the gut and tumor microbiota in influencing responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), by integrating insights from single ...

Selective PAR2 Inhibition Attenuates HDM‐Induced Th1/Th2 Responses in Human Epithelial and Murine Models of Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma are involved in complex interactions between Th1 and Th2 inflammatory pathways. House dust mite (HDM) activates protease‐activated receptor 2 (PAR2) to trigger inflammatory responses, but current treatments often provide inadequate control.
