Alphaviruses in Gene Therapy [PDF]
Viruses, 2009 Alphaviruses are enveloped single stranded RNA viruses, which as gene therapy vectors provide high-level transient gene expression. Semliki Forest virus (SFV), Sindbis virus (SIN) and Venezuelan Equine Encephalitis (VEE) virus have been engineered as efficient replication-deficient and -competent expression vectors.

Biology of Blood and Marrow Transplantation, 1999 For the past two decades, concerted efforts have been made to treat human disease by replacing nonfunctioning genes in cells or by correcting mutations that produce disease. Successful application of these methods could lead to effective therapies for a variety of genetic and acquired diseases, many of which are not treatable today.

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2012 Over 450 million people worldwide suffer from hearing loss, leading to an estimated economic burden of ∼$750 billion. The past decade has seen significant advances in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms that contribute to hearing, and the environmental and genetic factors that can go awry and lead to hearing loss.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Macrophage Transcriptomic Alterations Driven by Alphavirus-Based Cancer Immunotherapy Vectors
Journal of Immunology ResearchCancer cells promote the polarisation of tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) into pro-tumorigenic M2-like phenotype, contributing to cancer progression. Reprogramming TAMs by viral immunotherapy vectors represents a promising strategy for cancer therapy.

Gene therapy for arthritis [PDF]
Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs, 1994 In the two years since arthritis gene therapy was last reviewed in this journal, there has been rapid progress on several fronts. Although vector development remains a slow process and long-term gene expression is not easily obtained, very encouraging preclinical data in animal models of arthritis are now emerging.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...
