Lanreotide, a Somatostatin Analogue, in Advanced Merkel Cell Carcinoma: A Prospective Single‐Arm Phase II Study

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC) is a rare, aggressive neuroendocrine and epithelial skin cancer. Somatostatin analogues, such as lanreotide, have shown efficacy in managing other neuroendocrine tumors. Retrospective studies suggest that lanreotide may induce partial response or disease stabilization in patients with advanced MCC.

Entering the Age of Specificity in T Cell Immunity

Immunological Reviews, Volume 343, Issue 1, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The discovery of MHC restriction, the resolution of peptide–MHC structure, and the identification of the T cell receptor gene quickly centered epitope‐level specificity as a core concern of T cell biology. Epitope mapping culminated in functional peptide‐based stimulation assays and tetramer staining, which together provide exquisite ...

Prevention of Oncogenic Gammaherpesvirinae (EBV and HHV8) Associated Disease in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients

Transplant International, 2023
Long-term risk for malignancy is higher among solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients compared to the general population. Four non-hepatitis viruses have been recognized as oncogenic in SOT recipients—EBV, cause of EBV-associated lymphoproliferative ...

The Significance of cGAS‐STING Signaling in Response to Oncogenic Viruses

Cell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The cyclic GMP‐AMP synthase (cGAS)‐stimulator of interferon genes (STING) signaling pathway, as a key DNA sensor, plays a significant role in the regulation of innate immune responses. This pathway can be activated by sensing abnormal DNA, and is of great significance for resisting the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms and maintaining ...

Identification of Merkel cell polyomavirus in Merkel cell carcinoma tissue: case report of a Taiwanese patient

Dermatologica Sinica, 2010
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare malignancy with aggressive behavior mostly seen in the elderly and immunosuppressed patients. In 2008, the clonal integration of a new human polyomavirus, named Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV), was found to be ...

Burden and Correlates of Multiple Chronic Infections and Their Associations With Cancer Incidence in Chinese Adults: A Large Case‐Cohort Study

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 5, Page 1282-1295, 1 September 2026.
While several oncogenic pathogens cause site‐specific cancers, uncertainties remain about many other chronic infections and combined pathogen effects, especially in non‐Western populations. Using a large case–cohort study nested within the China Kadoorie Biobank, the authors found that co‐infection was common, with a mean of 10 pathogens per individual.

Next‐Generation Sequencing Methods for Sensitive Hepatitis B Viral Genome Analysis: A European Study

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This multicentre study investigated the utility of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) to detect and generate hepatitis B virus (HBV) genomes in samples of low viral load (from 0.2 to 6207 IU/mL). 23 HBV DNA‐positive plasma samples of genotypes A‐E and one HBV‐negative control sample were assayed blindly via 9 established NGS methods from 6 ...

The Murky Life of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus [PDF]

Cell Host & Microbe, 2016
Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) expressing viral T antigens is a common feature of most Merkel cell carcinomas, a primary neuroendocrine skin tumor. MCPyV has been difficult to propagate in vitro. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Liu et al. (2016) report that human dermal fibroblasts support productive MCPyV infection.
