Gonadotropin‐Inhibitory Hormone (GnIH) and Its Receptor GPR147 Mediates Acute Stress‐Induced Activation of the Locus Coeruleus‐SAM Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gonadotropin‐inhibitory hormone (GnIH, also known as RFamide‐related peptide‐3, RFRP‐3) is a hypothalamic neuropeptide that regulates vertebrate reproduction via its receptor GPR147. Although GnIH is known to mediate stress‐induced reproductive suppression, its role in broader stress responses remains unclear.

Benzotriazoles Reactivate Latent HIV-1 through Inactivation of STAT5 SUMOylation

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
The presence of latent HIV-1 in infected individuals represents a major barrier preventing viral eradication. For that reason, reactivation of latent viruses in the presence of antiretroviral regimens has been proposed as a therapeutic strategy to ...

Multiply spliced HIV RNA is a predictive measure of virus production ex vivo and in vivo following reversal of HIV latency

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2021
Background: One strategy being pursued to clear latently infected cells that persist in people living with HIV (PLWH) on antiretroviral therapy (ART) is to activate latent HIV infection with a latency reversing agent (LRA).

Engineering Synergistic Intra‐/Intermolecular Conformational Locking via Side‐Chain Branching: A β‐Sheet‐Inspired Strategy for Planar NIR‐II Phototheranostic Aggregates

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A bio‐inspired side‐chain branching strategy is developed to orchestrate a dual noncovalent conformational locking (NoCL) network, enabling the construction of perfectly planar NIR‐II phototheranostic aggregates. Such structural precision maximizes light‐harvesting efficiency and optimizes exciton dynamics, ensuring synchronized enhancements in NIR‐II ...

Targeting Cellular and Tissue HIV Reservoirs With Toll-Like Receptor Agonists

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
The elimination of both cellular and tissue latent reservoirs is a challenge toward a successful HIV cure. “Shock and Kill” are among the therapeutic strategies that have been more extensively studied to target these reservoirs.

Programmable Encapsulation Enables On‐Demand Proliferation of Therapeutic Bacteria for Potent Cancer Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A programmable encapsulation technology is developed to reduce bacterial immunogenicity and proliferation after systemic administration. The cross‐linked polymer networks around individual bacteria enable immunogenic shielding and permit selective proliferation in tumors, allowing the bacteria to convert tumor‐accumulated ammonia into L‐arginine and ...

BCG HSP70 Reprograms Macrophages via Central Trained Immunity to Suppress Prostate Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
BCG‐derived HSP70 (Dnak) safely induces central trained immunity via epigenetic, metabolic, and O‐GlcNAcylation reprogramming of bone marrow progenitors, driving tumor‐associated macrophages toward an M1‐like phenotype to suppress prostate cancer. ABSTRACT Trained immunity offers a promising yet clinically challenging strategy for cancer immunotherapy,

Blood Cell‐Camouflaged Liquid Metal Nanoconjugates Orchestrate Treg Depletion and STING‐Amplified Photothermal Immunity for Metastatic Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐blood biomimetic engineering transforms liquid metal nanoparticles into a tripartite immunotherapeutic platform that orchestrates regulatory T‐cell depletion, photothermal‐induced immunogenic cell death, and activation of the stimulator of interferon genes pathway.

Pan-caspase inhibitors induce secretion of HIV-1 latency reversal agent lymphotoxin-alpha from cytokine-primed NK cells

open access: yesCell Death Discovery
The persistence of HIV-1 latency reservoirs in CD4+ T cells is a significant obstacle for curing HIV-1. Shock-and-kill strategies, which aim to reactivate latent HIV-1 followed by cytotoxic clearance, have shown limited success in vivo due to ...
