INO-4800 DNA vaccine induces neutralizing antibodies and T cell activity against global SARS-CoV-2 variants

open access: yesnpj Vaccines, 2021
Global surveillance has identified emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOC) associated with broadened host specificity, pathogenicity, and immune evasion to vaccine-induced immunity. Here we compared humoral and cellular responses against SARS-CoV-2

Immunogenicity of biologic therapies for migraine: a review of current evidence

open access: yesThe Journal of Headache and Pain, 2021
Background Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) pathway have been shown to be effective in migraine prevention. Eptinezumab, erenumab, fremanezumab, and galcanezumb have shown efficacy in clinical trials along

Rare loss of function variants in the hepatokine gene INHBE protect from abdominal obesity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Abdominal fat has been shown to increase cardiometabolic disease risk. In this study, the authors report that loss-of-function variants in the gene INHBE associate with lower BMI-adjusted waist-to-hip ratio, a surrogate measure of abdominal fat.

Selection of GalNAc-conjugated siRNAs with limited off-target-driven rat hepatotoxicity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
A subset of chemically-modified siRNAs conjugated to trivalent GalNAc may fail during nonclinical development due to rat hepatotoxicity. Here, the authors show that hepatotoxicity may be accounted for by microRNA-like off-target effects of siRNA and can ...

Rational Use of Herbal Products in Pediatric Patients Treated With Anticancer Drugs in the European Union

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The use of herbal medical preparation (HMP) is rising among pediatric oncology patients, often to manage treatment‐related symptoms. Their effectiveness remains uncertain, and the risk of herb–drug interactions is underestimated.

A chemical biology screen identifies a vulnerability of neuroendocrine cancer cells to SQLE inhibition

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Cancer cells are metabolically adaptable and the identification of specific vulnerabilities is challenging. Here the authors identify a subset of neuroendocrine cell lines exquisitely sensitive to inhibition of SQLE, an enzyme in the cholesterol ...

Active immunoprophylaxis with a synthetic DNA-encoded monoclonal anti-respiratory syncytial virus scFv-Fc fusion protein confers protection against infection and durable activity

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2020
Respiratory Syncytial virus (RSV) is a major threat to many vulnerable populations. There are currently no approved vaccines, and RSV remains a high unmet global medical need.

Ironic Medications: A Narrative‐Based Psycho‐Educational Intervention to Explore Patient–Provider Communication in Adolescents With Haematological Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adolescents with haematological malignancies face significant emotional and relational challenges, often accompanied by difficulties in communicating their needs within the healthcare context. To address these issues, a narrative‐based psycho‐educational intervention based on the creation and prescription of Ironic Medications was ...

RSPO3 antagonism inhibits growth and tumorigenicity in colorectal tumors harboring common Wnt pathway mutations

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Activating mutations in the Wnt pathway are a characteristic feature of colorectal cancer (CRC). The R-spondin (RSPO) family is a group of secreted proteins that enhance Wnt signaling and RSPO2 and RSPO3 gene fusions have been reported in CRC.

Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Survival in Western Kenya: Reduction in Early Deaths and Treatment Abandonment

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background An earlier study on children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH) in Kenya reported a low event‐free survival (EFS), excess treatment abandonment, and high induction mortality.
