Engineering Biology Beyond Single Genes: Advances and Challenges in Multiplex Genome Editing

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Multiplex genome editing is transforming genome engineering from single‐gene perturbation to network‐level control, yet its broader application remains limited by challenges in gRNA array engineering, delivery technologies, and safety management. Emerging AI‐driven approaches are accelerating guide RNA design and CRISPR effector optimization for ...

T cells, the Next Big Target in Axial Spondyloarthritis?

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by complex immune dysregulation, with T cells playing a central role in its pathogenesis. In this review, we synthesize current knowledge on diverse T cell subsets in axSpA, their pathogenic mechanisms, and emerging therapeutic strategies targeting these cells. We highlight

Bioinformatically analyzed relationships between specific human genes associated with HIV attachment

Инфекция и иммунитет
Introduction. Assessing interaction between the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and human factors is crucial for understanding the disease pathogenesis. HIV triggers an immune response that involves numerous cellular and molecular processes related to

A novel CCR5 mutation common in sooty mangabeys reveals SIVsmm infection of CCR5-null natural hosts and efficient alternative coreceptor use in vivo.

PLoS Pathogens, 2010
In contrast to HIV infection in humans and SIV in macaques, SIV infection of natural hosts including sooty mangabeys (SM) is non-pathogenic despite robust virus replication.

Autoreactivity Versus Autoimmunity: Characteristics of Autoantigen‐Specific CD4 T Cells in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Health

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective CD4 T cells specific for citrullinated (cit) peptides are key players in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) immunopathogenesis. Characterizing these cells and identifying features of healthy and RA‐associated autoreactivity will provide valuable insight into disease mechanisms and form the basis of immune state biomarkers to facilitate the next ...

CCR5 structural plasticity shapes HIV-1 phenotypic properties.

PLoS Pathogens, 2018
CCR5 plays immune functions and is the coreceptor for R5 HIV-1 strains. It exists in diverse conformations and oligomerization states. We interrogated the significance of the CCR5 structural diversity on HIV-1 infection.

Persistent Interleukin‐18 Fuels Expansion of CD38+HLA‐DR+CD8+ T Cells in Still Disease and Macrophage Activation Syndrome

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Still disease (SD) is an autoinflammatory disorder characterized by remarkably high interleukin‐18 (IL‐18) levels. Increasing evidence suggests that adaptive immunity also contributes to its pathogenesis, particularly in refractory courses. Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), one of SD's most severe complications, is associated with further

CCR5 is a suppressor for cortical plasticity and hippocampal learning and memory

eLife, 2016
Although the role of CCR5 in immunity and in HIV infection has been studied widely, its role in neuronal plasticity, learning and memory is not understood.

Extracellular vesicles derived from edible plants and edible fungi: Compositional characteristics, engineering strategies and biofunctions

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Non‐animal extracellular vesicles as bioactive‐compound carriers: compositional characteristics, engineering strategies, and biofunctions. Abstract Animal‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) were widely used for bioactive compound delivery but constrained by complex origins, potential immunogenicity, and pathogen contamination.

Staphylococcus aureus Leukocidin LukED and HIV-1 gp120 Target Different Sequence Determinants on CCR5

mBio, 2016
Leukocidin ED (LukED) is a bicomponent pore-forming toxin produced by Staphylococcus aureus that lyses host cells by targeting the chemokine receptors CC chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5), CXCR1, CXCR2, and DARC.
