cGAS/STING-Independent Induction of Type I Interferon by Inhibitors of the Histone Methylase KDM5B. [PDF]
Mechanism of HEXIM1 regulation of Type I Interferon. ABSTRACT Studies support the role of hexamethylene bis‐acetamide [HMBA] induced protein 1 (HEXIM1) as a tumor suppressor. We previously reported that the histone demethylase, KDM5B, inhibits the expression of HEXIM1, and KDM5B inhibitors (KDM5Bi) upregulate HEXIM1 expression. As a consequence, KDM5Bi

Heterozygous PNPT1 Variants Cause a Sensory Ataxic Neuropathy. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Biallelic variants in polyribonucleotide‐nucleotidyltransferase‐1 (PNPT1) have been associated with a range of phenotypes from syndromic hearing loss to Leigh's syndrome. More recently, heterozygous variants in PNPT1, have been reported in three families with cerebellar ataxia and prominent sensory neuropathy.
