PRO 140, a humanized anti-HIV monoclonal antibody targeting the cell coreceptor CCR5, is currently under clinical trials, but it only affects CCR5-tropic viruses. In this study, we have engineered two tandem fusion proteins (2P23-PRO140SC and 2P23-PRO140-

The Curious Case of Arenavirus Entry, and Its Inhibition
Arenaviruses comprise a diverse family of enveloped negative-strand RNA viruses that are endemic to specific rodent hosts worldwide. Several arenaviruses cause severe hemorrhagic fevers in humans, including Junín and Machupo viruses in South America and ...

Natural Killer Cells in Paediatric Soft Tissue Sarcomas: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Paediatric soft tissue sarcomas (pSTS) are a rare and heterogeneous group of malignant tumours arising in tissues of mesenchymal origin. The role of natural killer (NK) cells in pSTS remains poorly understood, with evidence fragmented across small preclinical studies and early‐phase clinical trials.

Entry of HIV-1 into target cells is mediated by its envelope (Env) glycoprotein composed of the receptor binding subunit gp120 and the fusion protein gp41. Refolding of the gp41 N- and C-terminal heptad repeats (NHR and CHR) into a six-helix bundle (6-HB)

A fusion inhibitor on endosomes
![Graphic][1] The fusion (right) of early endosomes (left) is inhibited by Hrs. Endocytosed proteins come together in the early endosome to be sorted to different locations. Some endosome fusion is needed to promote this mixing, but the process must be regulated both to stop ...

Geranylgeranylated Snares Are Dominant Inhibitors of Membrane Fusion [PDF]
Exocytosis in yeast requires the assembly of the secretory vesicle soluble N-ethylmaleimide–sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (v-SNARE) Sncp and the plasma membrane t-SNAREs Ssop and Sec9p into a SNARE complex. High-level expression of mutant Snc1 or Sso2 proteins that have a COOH-terminal geranylgeranylation signal instead of a ...

The Role of Chemotherapy in Pediatric Myoepithelial Carcinoma: A Systematic Review of the Literature
ABSTRACT Myoepithelial carcinoma (MEC) in pediatric patients is a rare and aggressive malignancy characterized by heterogeneous morphology and variable molecular features. The optimal role of chemotherapy remains unclear. We conducted a systematic review according to PRISMA 2020 guidelines to evaluate chemotherapy in pediatric and young‐adult patients ...

Clinical perspective of fusion inhibitors for treatment of HIV [PDF]
The number of antiretroviral-experienced HIV patients with multiple resistances against the currently available antiretroviral drug classes is increasing substantially. Therapeutic options for this specific group of patients are limited. The fusion inhibitor enfuvirtide represents the first new therapeutic option from a new drug class for this patient ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.
