Alphaviral Capsid Proteins Inhibit Stress Granule Assembly via Competitive RNA Binding With G3BP1
Stress granules exert antiviral functions. This study illustrates a conserved function of alphaviral capsid proteins in modulating stress granules. Oligomerization mediated by a helical motif coupled with a positively charged intrinsically disordered region (IDR) directly competes with G3BP1 for RNA binding, thereby disrupting G3BP1‐RNA liquid–liquid ...

Pathology of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus infection
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV, human herpesvirus 8, HHV-8) is a human herpesvirus, classified as a gamma-herpesvirus. KSHV is detected in Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS), primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), and some cases of multicentric Castleman’s ...

Targeting of Prosurvival Pathways as Therapeutic Approaches against Primary Effusion Lymphomas: Past, Present, and Future [PDF]
Constitutively activated prosurvival pathways render cancer cells addicted to their effects. Consequently they turn out to be the Achilles’ heels whose inhibition can be exploited in anticancer therapy.

T Cell Exhaustion in Cancer Immunotherapy: Heterogeneity, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Opportunities
T cell exhaustion limits immunotherapy efficacy. This article delineates its progression from stem‐like to terminally exhausted states, governed by persistent antigen, transcription factors, epigenetics, and metabolism. It maps the exhaustion landscape in the TME and proposes integrated reversal strategies, providing a translational roadmap to overcome

Atomic structures and deletion mutant reveal different capsid-binding patterns and functional significance of tegument protein pp150 in murine and human cytomegaloviruses with implications for therapeutic development. [PDF]
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection causes birth defects and life-threatening complications in immunosuppressed patients. Lack of vaccine and need for more effective drugs have driven widespread ongoing therapeutic development efforts against human CMV (HCMV)

Abstract Dedicator of cytokinesis 8 (DOCK8) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency. Patients with DOCK8 deficiency typically present at early age with allergic manifestations, cutaneous and respiratory infections, raised immunoglobulin E, and they have an increased risk of developing malignancies.

Persistent infection of a human lymphoblastoid cell line with equine herpesvirus 1 [PDF]
Infection of a human lymphoblastoid cell line (Jijoye line derived from a Burkitt lymphoma which contains Epstein-Barr virus) with equine herpesvirus 1, maintained and observed for 53 days, was characterized by the continuous production of infectious extracellular and intracellular virus.

Abstract Childhood obesity is rising and leading to serious co‐morbidities, among which is metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) predisposing individuals to cirrhosis. We describe a young 11‐year‐old Hispanic male who presented with hepatopulmonary syndrome secondary to cirrhotic portal hypertension from metabolic dysfunction‐
