Interferons: Reprogramming the Metabolic Network against Viral Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2018
Viruses exploit the host and induce drastic metabolic changes to ensure an optimal environment for replication and the production of viral progenies.

Tryptophan‐sensing receptor GPR142 expression levels are directly regulated by proinflammatory cytokines in ghrelin‐producing cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
GPR142, a tryptophan‐sensing receptor, stimulates gastrointestinal hormones like ghrelin and is linked to inflammation regulation. Proinflammatory cytokines suppress ghrelin production, while tryptophan levels decrease via IDO1 activation. Our findings reveal that proinflammatory cytokines directly regulate GPR142 expression in ghrelin‐producing cells,

Recombinant Interferon-Beta-1a Plus Ribavirin for the Treatment of Chronic HCV Infection: A Prospective, Randomized, Comparative Pilot Study

open access: yesGut and Liver, 2009
Background/Aims: Interferon beta (IFN-Ղ) has been shown to have antiviral activity, and thus could be useful in treating viral infections. Therefore, we compared the efficacy and safety of recombinant IFN-Ղ (IFN-Ղ-1a) plus oral ribavirin versus ...

Pathogenic Effects of IFIT2 and Interferon-β during Fatal Systemic Candida albicans Infection

open access: yesmBio, 2018

Oropouche Virus Infects, Persists and Induces IFN Response in Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells as Identified by RNA PrimeFlow™ and qRT-PCR Assays

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Oropouche orthobunyavirus (OROV) is an emerging arbovirus with a high potential of dissemination in America. Little is known about the role of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) response during OROV infection in humans.

Contribution of type III interferons to antiviral immunity: location, location, location

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2017
Type I interferons (IFN-α/β) and the more recently identified type III IFNs (IFN-λ) function as the first line of defense against virus infection and regulate the development of both innate and adaptive immune responses.

Interferon in the CNS

open access: yesNeurosignals, 2019
While the role of interferon during systemic disease is well known and its immune modulating functions and its role in antiviral activity were extensively studied, the role of IFN-I in the brain is less clear. Here we summarize the most important literature on IFN in homeostasis of the CNS and induction of an IFN response during viral infection in the ...

Bioengineering facets of the tumor microenvironment in 3D tumor models: insights into cellular, biophysical and biochemical interactions

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The tumor microenvironment is a dynamic, multifaceted complex system of interdependent cellular, biochemical, and biophysical components. Three‐dimensional in vitro models of the tumor microenvironment enable a better understanding of these interactions and their impact on cancer progression and therapeutic resistance.

Information Mining for COVID-19 Research From a Large Volume of Scientific Literature [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
The year 2020 has seen an unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic due to the outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus in 180 countries. In a desperate effort to discover new drugs and vaccines for COVID-19, many scientists are working around the clock. Their valuable time and effort may benefit from computer-based mining of a large volume of health science ...

Comparative single‐cell transcriptomic profiling of patient‐derived renal carcinoma cells in cellular and animal models of kidney cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We generated and characterized clear cell renal cell carcinoma models using the patient‐derived RCC243 cell line—including cell culture, orthotopic, and metastatic tumors—via single‐cell RNA‐sequencing for comparisons between models and patient tumor datasets.
