Radiation unlocks the therapeutic potential of immune checkpoint blockers in lung cancer patients

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2019
CTLA4 blockers have limited activity in patients with chemorefractory lung cancer. Recent clinical data demonstrate that radiation therapy combined with CTLA4 blockers enables disease control in a sizeable fraction of these patients, correlating with ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Translating whole‐genome doubling into precision medicine in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Whole‐genome doubling creates a WGD‐positive tumor state characterized by persistent chromosomal instability, karyotypic diversification, and cellular stress. These same biological pressures drive aggressive tumor evolution while exposing therapeutic vulnerabilities, providing a rationale for WGD‐informed precision medicine. Whole‐genome doubling (WGD)

cGAS/STING/NLRP3 Signaling Pathway-Mediated Pyroptosis in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Radiotherapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Background: Radiotherapy is a commonly employed treatment modality for cancer; however, its radiobiological effects in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) remain unclear.

Mitophagy curtails cytosolic mtDNA-dependent activation of cGAS/STING inflammation during aging

open access: yesNature Communications
Dysregulated autophagy and mitochondrial function are two well-described hallmarks of aging. Here, the authors describe an unexpected age-associated upregulation of mitophagy in response to neuroinflammation triggered by leaked mtDNA.

Interferon beta drives therapy resistance in a patient‐derived model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Interferon type 1 (IFN‐1) production and signaling is associated with the acquisition of therapy resistance, following chronic DNA damage, via Interferon‐related DNA damage resistance signature (IRDS) gene expression. An alternative, DNA damage‐independent role of sustained IFN‐1 mediated resistance was identified and characterized by the emergence of ...

Cell-free protein synthesis with technical additives – expanding the parameter space of in vitro gene expression

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry
Biocatalysis has established itself as a successful tool in organic synthesis. A particularly fast technique for screening enzymes is the in vitro expression or cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS).

Apoptotic caspases cut down the immunogenicity of radiation

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2019
Caspases are known for their ability to precipitate apoptosis. Our findings indicate that accelerating the terminal inactivation of cells dying in response to radiation therapy limit their immunogenicity as a consequence of reduced type I interferon ...

Nuclear cGAS restricts L1 retrotransposition by promoting TRIM41-mediated ORF2p ubiquitination and degradation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Cyclic GMP–AMP synthase (cGAS), initially identified as a cytosolic DNA sensor, detects DNA fragments to trigger an innate immune response. Recently, accumulating evidence reveals the presence of cGAS within the nucleus. However, the biological functions
