Spores of Clostridium engineered for clinical efficacy and safety cause regression and cure of tumors in vivo. [PDF]
Spores of some species of the strictly anaerobic bacteria Clostridium naturally target and partially lyse the hypoxic cores of tumors, which tend to be refractory to conventional therapies. The anti-tumor effect can be augmented by engineering strains to

A general model for analysis of linear and hyperbolic enzyme inhibition mechanisms
We developed a general enzyme kinetic model that integrates these six basic inhibition mechanism onto a single one. From this model, we deduced a general enzyme kinetic equation that through modulation of simple parameters, γ (the relative inhibitor affinity for two binding sites) and β (the reactivity of the enzyme–substrate–inhibitor complex), is ...

Durable B‐Cell Impairment While Sparing IgA B Cells After Ocrelizumab Therapy in Multiple Sclerosis
ABSTRACT Objectives Ocrelizumab (OCR), a humanized anti‐CD20 monoclonal antibody, is highly efficient in relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis (RR‐MS). We assessed early cellular B‐cell profiles in patients prior to OCR treatment, on OCR treatment, and after 15 months of therapy discontinuation.

Poly(ADP-Ribosyl)ation affects stabilization of CHE-1 protein in response to DNA damage [PDF]
Post-translation modifications play a crucial role in coordinating the cellular response to DNA damage. Double strand DNA breaks (DSBs) trigger the activation of ATM and Chk2 kinases, which represent the primary transducers in the signalling cascade ...

Durability of Response to B‐Cell Maturation Antigen‐Directed mRNA Cell Therapy in Myasthenia Gravis
ABSTRACT Objective We report the 12‐month follow‐up outcomes from a Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT04146051) evaluating Descartes‐08, a BCMA‐directed RNA chimeric antigen receptor T‐cell (rCAR‐T) therapy for refractory generalized myasthenia gravis (MG).

SNUPN‐Related Muscular Dystrophy: Novel Phenotypic, Pathological and Functional Protein Insights
ABSTRACT Objective SNUPN‐related muscular dystrophy or LGMDR29 is a new entity that covers from a congenital or childhood onset pure muscular dystrophy to more complex phenotypes combining neurodevelopmental features, cataracts, or spinocerebellar ataxia. So far, 12 different variants have been described.
