Viral Infections and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: New Players in an Old Story

open access: yesViruses, 2021
A causal link between viral infections and autoimmunity has been studied for a long time and the role of some viruses in the induction or exacerbation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in genetically predisposed patients has been proved. The strength

Genetic Engineering Methods in Primary T Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Primary T cells can be engineered to confer them with novel therapeutic functions, allowing them to treat a variety of conditions. Genetic engineering can be either stable or transient, aiming to either express or inhibit a target gene. This review discusses the various genetic engineering tools available as well as their characteristics and ...

Exploring AAV‐Mediated Gene Therapy for Inner Ear Diseases: from Preclinical Success to Clinical Potential

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Current preclinical studies of AAV‐mediated gene therapy explore different strategies based on the characteristics of inner ear diseases. For genetic hearing loss, approaches include the replacement of a “good gene,” removal of a “bad gene,” or direct correction of mutations through base editing.

The Diverse Roles of microRNAs at the Host–Virus Interface

open access: yesViruses, 2018
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. Through this activity, they are implicated in almost every cellular process investigated to date.

RIG‐I‐Inducing Small Molecules Potently Inhibit HMA‐Resistant AML Through Igniting the Overloaded dsRNA Arsenal

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals a novel mechanism of resistance to DNA hypomethylating agents (HMAs) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and identifies all‐trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and tamibarotene (TAM) as potent agents that overcome HMA resistance by reactivating the interferon anticancer immune response. The findings offer promising therapeutic strategies for HMA‐
