Combined Photothermal and mTOR‐Targeted Therapy Overcomes Immune Evasion and Enhances Checkpoint Blockade Efficacy in Metastatic Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 10, 18 February 2026.
This study reveals that photothermal therapy, while inducing immunogenic cell death in triple‐negative breast cancer, paradoxically activates the oncogenic mTOR pathway to drive immune evasion. To counter this, a smart nanocomposite is engineered to co‐deliver localized hyperthermia and mTOR inhibition.

Gene Variation of Endoplasmic Reticulum Aminopeptidases 1 and 2, and Risk of Blood Pressure Progression and Incident Hypertension among 17,255 Initially Healthy Women

International Journal of Genomics, 2018
Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase (ERAP) in blood pressure (BP) homeostasis. To date, no large prospective, genetic–epidemiological data are available on genetic variation within ERAP and hypertension

Expression analysis of HLA-E and NKG2A and NKG2C receptors points at a role for natural killer function in ankylosing spondylitis [PDF]

, 2018
Background. Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS) is a complex chronic inflammatory disease strongly associated with the majority of HLA-B27 alleles. HLA-E are non-classical MHC class I molecules that specifically interact with the natural killer receptors NKG2A ...

ERAP1 overexpression in HPV-induced malignancies: A possible novel immune evasion mechanism

OncoImmunology, 2017
Immune evasion of tumors poses a major challenge for immunotherapy. For human papillomavirus (HPV)-induced malignancies, multiple immune evasion mechanisms have been described, including altered expression of antigen processing machinery (APM) components.

BiForce Toolbox: powerful high-throughput computational analysis of gene-gene interactions in genome-wide association studies [PDF]

, 2012
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have discovered many loci associated with common disease and quantitative traits. However, most GWAS have not studied the gene–gene interactions (epistasis) that could be important in complex trait genetics. A major

Integrative Multiomics and Single‐Cell Analyses Identify FKBP10 as a Predictor of Radiotherapy Outcome in Colorectal Cancer

Human Mutation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Radiotherapy resistance limits colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment efficacy, with only 15%–20% of patients achieving a complete response. Validated biomarkers predicting treatment response and serving as therapeutic targets are critically needed.

The emerging multifunctional roles of ERAP1, ERAP2 and IRAP between antigen processing and renin-angiotensin system modulation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
The Endoplasmic Reticulum Aminopeptidase 1 and 2 (ERAP1 and ERAP2) and Insulin Regulated Aminopeptidase (IRAP) are three M1 zinc metalloproteases whose role in antigen processing is the refining of peptidome either in the Endoplasmic reticulum (ERAP1 and

Lnc‐CHRM4‐2:1 Inhibits M2 Polarization and Efferocytosis of Macrophages by Downregulating MerTK and SLC2A1 in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Journal of Immunology Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common chronic and systemic autoimmune disease. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been documented to play important roles in the pathogenesis of RA. This study is aimed to investigate the differentially expressed lncRNAs in RA and explore the underlying roles and mechanisms of RA‐specific lncRNAs.

Targeting inflammatory pathways in axial spondyloarthritis. [PDF]

, 2019
The triggers and pathogenesis of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) are not yet completely understood. However, therapeutic agents targeting tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-17 inflammatory pathways have proven successful in suppressing many of the ...
