Lymphomas in immunocompromised patients

Annales de Biologie Clinique, 2020
Immunosuppression is a well known risk factor for the development of lymphoid pathologies. The classification of these neoplasias is becoming more precise and complex, some features being common to all immunocompromised patients, primarily the important influence of Epstein-Barr virus.

SARS-CoV-2 in an immunocompromised host: convalescent plasma therapy and viral evolution elucidated by whole genome sequencing [PDF]

, 2023
The evolution of SARS-CoV-2 within immunocompromised hosts who fail to clear the virus over many months has been proposed as a route to the development of Variants of Concern (VoCs). We present a case of an immunocompromised male patient with a prolonged

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

CD47 promotes mitogen‐activated protein kinase and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition molecular programs to drive prometastatic phenotypes in non‐small cell lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Beyond its role in immune evasion, this study identified that CD47 drives tumor‐intrinsic signaling in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Transcriptomic profiling and functional studies revealed that CD47 regulates cell adhesion, migration, and metastasis through an ERK–EMT signaling axis.
