Gene therapy of malignant glioma with retroviral vectors and tumor-infiltrating progenitor cells [PDF]
Gene therapy as a therapeutic strategy in the treatment of human gliomas is limited by the efficacy of gene transfer and intratumoral distribution of viral vectors.

Immunoproteasomes largely replace constitutive proteasomes during an antiviral and antibacterial immune response in the liver [PDF]
The proteasome is critically involved in the production of MHC class I-restricted T cell epitopes. Proteasome activity and epitope production are altered by IFN-gamma treatment, which leads to a gradual replacement of constitutive proteasomes by ...

Immune Exhaustion in Chronic Infection and Cancer: Signaling Pathways and Therapeutic Interventions
Immune exhaustion is a well‐established hallmark of both cancer and chronic infection. This review proposes a novel “infection–exhaustion–tumor axis” framework, wherein chronic pathogens (e.g., oncogenic viruses) evade immune surveillance by hijacking inflammatory signaling to drive immune cell exhaustion, thereby creating immunosuppressive niches ...

Protective Efficacy of Individual CD8+ T Cell Specificities in Chronic Viral Infection. [PDF]
Specific CD8(+) T cells (CTLs) play an important role in resolving protracted infection with hepatitis B and C virus in humans and lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) in mice.

Congenital Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus [PDF]
Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus is a rodent-borne arenavirus that can cause congenital infection affecting the developing central nervous system. When the infection occurs during pregnancy, the virus targets the fetal brain and retina, potentially causing ventriculomegaly, hydrocephalus, chorioretinitis, and neurodevelopmental abnormalities. It has

The JAK/STAT Pathway in Cancer: From Molecular Mechanisms to Clinical Applications
Dysregulated JAK/STAT signaling and related genetic mutations are strongly associated with cancer progression, including promoting tumor proliferation, suppressing apoptosis, inducing immune suppression, participating in drug resistance. Based on the function of the JAK/STAT pathway in disease pathogenesis, numerous agents targeting the JAK/STAT ...

G-Protein Coupled Receptor 18 Contributes to Establishment of the CD8 Effector T Cell Compartment. [PDF]
The requirements for effector and memory CD8 T cell development are incompletely understood. Recent work has revealed a role for G-protein coupled receptor 18 (GPR18) in establishment of the intestinal CD8αα intraepithelial lymphocyte compartment.

The efficacy of halofantrine in the treatment of acute malaria in nonimmune travelers [PDF]
A multicenter prospective trial was performed to investigate the efficacy and the tolerability of halofantrine in nonimmune patients with malaria imported from areas with drug-resistant falciparum parasites (mainly Africa).

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been a breakthrough in cancer therapy, inducing durable remissions in responding patients. However, they are associated with variable outcomes, spanning from disease hyperprogression to complete responses with the onset of immune‐related adverse events.
