CDK4/6 inhibitors sensitize gammaherpesvirus-infected tumor cells to T-cell killing by enhancing expression of immune surface molecules

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2022
Background The two oncogenic human gammaherpesviruses, Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) and Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), both downregulate immune surface molecules, such as MHC-I, ICAM-1, and B7-2, enabling them to evade T-cell and natural ...

Regulation of Retroviral and SARS-CoV-2 Protease Dimerization and Activity through Reversible Oxidation

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2022
Most viruses encode their own proteases to carry out viral maturation and these often require dimerization for activity. Studies on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), type 2 (HIV-2) and human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV-1) proteases have shown ...

Malignant mesothelioma [PDF]

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2008
Malignant mesothelioma is a fatal asbestos-associated malignancy originating from the lining cells (mesothelium) of the pleural and peritoneal cavities, as well as the pericardium and the tunica vaginalis. The exact prevalence is unknown but it is estimated that mesotheliomas represent less than 1% of all cancers.

Characterizing Expression and Regulation of Gamma-Herpesviral Circular RNAs

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Multiple herpesviruses have been recently found to encode viral circular RNAs. Like cellular circular RNAs, these RNAs lack poly-A tails and their 5′ and 3′ ends have been joined, which confers protection from RNA exonucleases. We examined the expression

High level of pre-treatment C-reactive protein to albumin ratio predicts inferior prognosis in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR) has not been assessed in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL, the most common non-Hodgkin lymphoma). This retrospective study evaluated the prognostic value of CAR in 186 DLBCL patients. A CAR value of 0.158

Evaluating DNA Methylation in Random Fine Needle Aspirates from the Breast to Inform Cancer Risk

open access: yesThe Breast Journal, 2022
Introduction. Critical regulatory genes are functionally silenced by DNA hypermethylation in breast cancer and premalignant lesions. The objective of this study was to examine whether DNA methylation assessed in random fine needle aspirates (rFNA) can be

Microbiome and Malignancy [PDF]

open access: yesCell Host & Microbe, 2011
Current knowledge is insufficient to explain why only a proportion of individuals exposed to environmental carcinogens or carrying a genetic predisposition to cancer develop disease. Clearly, other factors must be important, and one such element that has recently received attention is the human microbiome, the residential microbes including Bacteria ...
