Retroviral replicating vector-mediated gene therapy achieves long-term control of tumor recurrence and leads to durable anticancer immunity. [PDF]

, 2017
BackgroundProdrug-activator gene therapy with Toca 511, a tumor-selective retroviral replicating vector (RRV) encoding yeast cytosine deaminase, is being evaluated in recurrent high-grade glioma patients.

Distribution of adult T‐cell leukaemia/lymphoma subtypes and survival outcomes across geographical regions: An international retrospective cohort study

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Although adult T‐cell leukaemia/lymphoma (ATL) has a higher burden in certain world regions, outcomes have not been directly compared across regions. We conducted a multicentre cohort study comparing the distribution of ATL subtypes and overall survival (OS) across 1090 adults (≥18 years) diagnosed with ATL during 2000–2023 in Japan (n = 366 ...

Mammalian fatty acid synthase: a commonly used viral host dependency factor and a putative target for host-targeted broad-spectrum antiviral therapeutic development

mBio
Viruses regulate host processes to create cellular environments favorable to viral replication. At least 27 viruses that infect humans require host fatty acid synthase (FASN)-dependent de novo fatty acid biosynthesis, including viruses from the ...

Small Cell Lung Cancer Establishes a Metabolic Autocrine Mechanism Through Active Extracellular ATP Transport

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) actively exports ATP through PANX1 channels, triggering P2RX7‐mediated autocrine signaling and promoting tumor proliferation. Inhibition of PANX1 or P2RX7 disrupts this loop and suppresses tumor growth. ABSTRACT Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive malignancy with a 5‐year survival rate of less than 7%.

Molecular Aspects of HTLV-1 Entry: Functional Domains of the HTLV-1 Surface Subunit (SU) and Their Relationships to the Entry Receptors

Viruses, 2011
The initial step in retroviral infection involves specific interactions between viral envelope proteins (Env) and specific receptors on the surface of target cells. For many years, little was known about the entry receptors for HTLV-1.

Homozygous Loss‐of‐Function Variant in SLC20A1 Coding for Ubiquitous Phosphate Transporter PiT1 Is Associated With Multiple Developmental Abnormalities

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Biallelic SLC20A1 loss‐of‐function variant causes a previously unrecognized multisystem developmental disorder. We report the first homozygous case presenting with tetralogy of Fallot, renal agenesis, polydactyly, and growth impairment. Transcriptome analysis of patient‐derived fibroblasts suggests significant dysregulation of pathways critical for ...

Gene Therapy and Gene Editing in Type 1 Diabetes: CRISPR‐Based β‐Cell Replacement and Treg Immune Modulation Approaches

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a chronic autoimmune disease marked by the destruction of pancreatic β‐cells, resulting in lifelong dependence on exogenous insulin. Despite advances in insulin delivery and glucose monitoring technologies, patients remain at risk for acute and long‐term complications, underscoring the need for ...

Feline Foamy Virus is Highly Prevalent in Free-Ranging Puma concolor from Colorado, Florida and Southern California

Viruses, 2019
Feline foamy virus (FFV) is a retrovirus that has been detected in multiple feline species, including domestic cats (Felis catus) and pumas (Puma concolor). FFV results in persistent infection but is generally thought to be apathogenic.

Distinct Effects of Complement C4A and C4B Copy Numbers in Systemic Sclerosis Serological and Clinical Subtypes. [PDF]

Arthritis Rheumatol
Objective Complement component 4 (C4), encoded by C4A and C4B within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6, regulates the immune response and clears immune complexes. The variable copy number (CN) of C4 genes and retroviral human endogenous retrovirus K (HERV‐K) element influence its function.
