Targeted protein editing technique in living mammalian cells by peptide-fused PNGase
Various precise gene editing techniques at the DNA/RNA level, driven by clustered regularly interspaced short palindrome repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) technology, have gained significant prominence. Yet, research on targeted protein

Immunological backbone of uveal melanoma: is there a rationale for immunotherapy? [PDF]
No standard treatment has been established for metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM). Immunotherapy is commonly used for this disease even though UM has not been included in phase III clinical trials with checkpoint inhibitors.

Novel insights into the synergistic interaction of Bortezomib and TRAIL: tBid provides the link [PDF]
The proteasome inhibitor Bortezomib has been identified as a potent enhancer of TRAIL-induced apoptosis in several human cancers. However, the identification of the underlying molecular mechanisms of this synergistic cell death induction has been ongoing

Apoptotic epitope-specific CD8+ T cells and interferon signaling intersect in chronic hepatitis C virus infection [PDF]
CD8(+) T cells specific to caspase-cleaved antigens derived from apoptotic T cells represent a principal player in chronic immune activation (CIA). Here, we found that both apoptotic epitope (AE)-specific and hepatitis C virus (HCV)-specific CD8(+) T ...

HDAC inhibition potentiates immunotherapy in triple negative breast cancer. [PDF]
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents a more aggressive and difficult subtype of breast cancer where responses to chemotherapy occur, but toxicity is significant and resistance often follows. Immunotherapy has shown promising results in various
