Indirect induction of radiation lymphomas in mice. Evidence for a novel, transmissible leukemogen. [PDF]
The transmission of a lymphomagenic agent(s) from the bone marrow of irradiated mice to thymic target cells has been demonstrated by: (a) the induction of T cell lymphomas in nonirradiated thymic grafts implanted in irradiated, Thy-l-congenic mice, (b ...

ProTides for Antiviral Activity Beyond Liver Cells
A strategy for obtaining prodrugs of antiviral nucleotides with broad tissue activity is presented that relies on cycloalkyl or cycloalkylalkyl esters, improving uptake and esterase cleavage, and producing nanomolar inhibitors in kidney, colon, and lung cells.

North American Big Brown Bats (
Bats are the reservoir for a large number of zoonotic viruses, including members of Coronaviridae (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus [SARS-CoV] and SARS-CoV-2), Paramyxoviridae (Hendra and Nipah viruses), Rhabdoviridae (rabies virus), and ...

Identification of a novel retroviral gene unique to human immunodeficiency virus type 2 and simian immunodeficiency virus SIVMAC [PDF]
Human and simian immunodeficiency-associated retroviruses are extraordinarily complex, containing at least five genes, tat, art, sor, R, and 3' orf, in addition to the structural genes gag, pol, and env.

SUMOylation, a dynamic post‐translational modification, acts as a master regulator at the heart of tumor malignancy. Our work delineates how the SUMOylation cycle—mediated by E1/E2/E3 enzymes and reversed by SENPs—orchestrates multiple hallmarks of cancer. The central pathway converges on three critical pathological axes: 1.

MARCH1 protects the lipid raft and tetraspanin web from MHCII proteotoxicity in dendritic cells [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DCs) produce major histocompatibility complex II (MHCII) in large amounts to function as professional antigen presenting cells. Paradoxically, DCs also ubiquitinate and degrade MHCII in a constitutive manner.

Characterization of endonuclease activities in Moloney murine leukemia virus and its replication-defective mutants [PDF]
To study Moloney murine leukemia virus (M-MulV) proteins associated with the integration of proviral DNA into the host chromosome, we isolated endonuclease activities from purified virion preparations of the wild type and two of its replication mutants ...

Human lymphoma mutations reveal CARD11 as the switch between self-antigen-induced B cell death or proliferation and autoantibody production [PDF]
Self-tolerance and immunity are actively acquired in parallel through a poorly understood ability of antigen receptors to switch between signaling death or proliferation of antigenbinding lymphocytes in different contexts.

Current Status of Kidney Xenotransplantation in Basic Research
Kidney xenotransplantation is a potential solution to the organ shortage for end‐stage kidney disease. This review systematically elaborates on the application advances of donor pig gene editing technologies, the molecular mechanisms and regulatory strategies of xenogeneic immune rejection, and the optimization approaches of immune compatibility ...
