Identifying a novel region in the Tembusu virus NS5 protein antagonizing type I interferon signaling
Numerous species in the genus Flavivirus have been identified to pose serious threats to public health. Most of them have developed evasion strategies to counteract antiviral activity triggered by type I interferon (IFN-I), making prevention and control ...

Karyopherin β2B participates in mRNA export from the nucleus [PDF]
Transport of macromolecules between the cell nucleus and cytoplasm occurs through the nuclear pores and is mediated by soluble carriers known as karyopherins (Kaps), transportins, importins, or exportins. We report that Kap β2B (transportin-2) forms complexes with the mRNA export factor TAP in the presence of RanGTP, as shown by ...

Multifaceted Roles of Chloroquines in Gastrointestinal Disorders and Beyond
Chloroquine (CQ) and hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) modulate lysosomal activity and autophagy, suppressing gastrointestinal inflammation and reshaping pathogenic microbiota. These mechanisms alleviate inflammatory bowel disease, inhibit associated tumor growth, and provide benefits in certain autoimmune and viral conditions.

Are sperm capacitation and apoptosis the opposite ends of a continuum driven by oxidative stress?
This chapter explores the possibility that capacitation and apoptosis are linked processes joined by their common dependence on the continued generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

The karyopherin CRM1 is required for dendritic cell maturation
Dendritic cells (DC) are the most potent antigen-presenting cells (APC) of the immune system and are specialized to activate T as well as B cell-dependent immune responses. Mature DC are characterized by expression of CD83, a surface molecule that has been postulated to be required for efficient DC activity.

Elucidating the contribution of gut‐organ axes will provide new insights for developing combined therapeutic strategies against sepsis‐associated multiple organ dysfunction. ABSTRACT Sepsis, a life‐threatening clinical syndrome precipitated by a maladaptive host response to infection, is associated with substantial morbidity and high mortality rates ...

Sperm DNA fragmentation, recurrent implantation failure and recurrent miscarriage
Evidence is increasing that the integrity of sperm DNA may also be related to implantation failure and recurrent miscarriage (RM). To investigate this, the sperm DNA fragmentation in partners of 35 women with recurrent implantation failure (RIF ...

ABSTRACT Proteolysis‐targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are heterobifunctional molecules that hijack the ubiquitin‐proteasome system to drive catalytic, sub‐stoichiometric degradation of disease‐associated proteins, offering a mechanistic advantage over occupancy‐driven inhibitors and access to ‘undruggable’ targets.

Functional consequences of necdin nucleocytoplasmic localization. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Necdin, a MAGE family protein expressed primarily in the nervous system, has been shown to interact with both nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins, but the mechanism of its nucleocytoplasmic transport are unknown.
