Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Effects of a Peripherally Restricted Hybrid Inhibitor of CB1 Receptors and iNOS on Alcohol Drinking Behavior and Alcohol-Induced Endotoxemia

Molecules, 2021
Alcohol consumption is associated with gut dysbiosis, increased intestinal permeability, endotoxemia, and a cascade that leads to persistent systemic inflammation, alcoholic liver disease, and other ailments.

Purification tags markedly affect self‐aggregation of CPEB3

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Although recombinant proteins are used to study protein aggregation in vitro, uncleaved tags can interfere with accurate interpretation. Our findings demonstrate that His₆‐GFP and His₁₂ tags significantly affect liquid droplet and amyloid fibril formation in the intrinsically disordered region (IDR) of mouse cytoplasmic polyadenylation element‐binding ...

A Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic Simulation to Evaluate Approaches to Mitigate Efavirenz-Induced Decrease in Levonorgestrel Exposure with a Contraceptive Implant

Pharmaceutics
Background: Levonorgestrel implant is a highly effective hormonal contraceptive, but its efficacy may be compromised when used with cytochrome enzyme inducers such as efavirenz. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate methods of mitigating the drug

Oropharyngeal microbiome profiled at admission is predictive of the need for respiratory support among COVID-19 patients

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The oropharyngeal microbiome, the collective genomes of the community of microorganisms that colonizes the upper respiratory tract, is thought to influence the clinical course of infection by respiratory viruses, including Severe Acute Respiratory ...

Circulating histones as clinical biomarkers in critically ill conditions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circulating histones are emerging as promising biomarkers in critical illness due to their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential. Detection methods such as ELISA and mass spectrometry provide reliable approaches for quantifying histone levels in plasma samples.

CB1R and iNOS are distinct players promoting pulmonary fibrosis in Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome

Clinical and Translational Medicine, 2021
Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome (HPS) is a rare genetic disorder which, in its most common and severe form, HPS‐1, leads to fatal adult‐onset pulmonary fibrosis (PF) with no effective treatment.

In Vitro Consequences of Electronic-Cigarette Flavoring Exposure on the Immature Lung. [PDF]

, 2019
Background: The developing lung is uniquely susceptible and may be at increased risk of injury with exposure to e-cigarette constituents. We hypothesize that cellular toxicity and airway and vascular responses with exposure to flavored refill solutions ...

Biological and technical complexities in analyzing extracellular vesicle immune interactions in B‐cell malignancies

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate intercellular communication in tumor immune microenvironments. However, their role in B‐cell malignancies remains poorly defined, owing to biological complexity and technical challenges in EV isolation and analysis.
