The Role of Long Noncoding RNAs in Human Papillomavirus-associated Pathogenesis

Pathogens, 2020
Infections with high-risk human papillomaviruses cause ~5% of all human cancers. E6 and E7 are the only viral genes that are consistently expressed in cancers, and they are necessary for tumor initiation, progression, and maintenance.

Redefining CHI3L1: Therapeutic Opportunities at the Crossroads of Immune Suppression and Disease Progression

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chitinase‐3‐like‐1 (CHI3L1, also known as YKL‐40) has been recognized as a biomarker of inflammation and tissue remodeling and has now emerged as a pseudoenzymatic immune checkpoint. Recent structural, immunological, and translational studies redefine it as an active regulator of immune suppression rather than a passive disease marker. Despite

Sickle Cell Disease: Historical Overview and Current Therapies

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects millions worldwide, yet the limited treatment options currently available do not always adequately control the disease and carry significant side effects. At present, the only curative treatment is hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation, a procedure that carries considerable challenges and numerous ...

Immunomodulatory Properties of Withania somnifera: Regulation of Innate Immune Cells and Clinical Implications

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Withania somnifera (L.) Dunal (WS), commonly known as Ashwagandha, is a prominent medicinal herb in Ayurveda, with extensive therapeutic potential attributed to its diverse phytochemical profile. This review critically examines the immunomodulatory properties of WS, focusing on innate immune cell populations, including neutrophils, eosinophils,

Non-Coding RNAs and Immune Evasion in Human Gamma-Herpesviruses

Viruses
Herpesviruses are DNA viruses that evade the immune response and persist as lifelong infections. Human gamma-herpesviruses Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) and Kaposi’s sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV) are oncogenic; they can lead to cancer.

Nanomedicine applications in lymphoma: Advancing precision diagnostics, targeted therapeutics, and prospective developments

VIEW, EarlyView.
Lymphoma is a group of blood cancers that can appear in lymph nodes, blood, bone marrow, spleen, liver, or the central nervous system, which makes drug delivery and disease monitoring difficult. This review summarizes how nanomedicine technologies may improve targeted treatment and imaging, while carefully separating approved or guideline‐supported ...

Red lines and green lights: Gene therapy for inherited erythroid disorders beyond the haemoglobinopathies

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Gene therapy is revolutionizing treatment paradigms for haemoglobinopathies, establishing a translational framework for disorders that impact red blood cell development. In their paper, Joshi et al. describe the preclinical and early clinical landscape of gene therapies for non‐haemoglobinopathy erythroid disorders and highlight common thematic ...

Prognostic impact of blood Epstein–Barr virus‐DNA in patients with peripheral T‐cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Peripheral T‐cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL‐NOS), is a heterogeneous nodal T‐ and natural killer (NK)‐cell lymphoma with limited prognostic biomarkers. A subset of PTCL‐NOS characterized by Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) involvement in tumour cells has recently been recognized as EBV‐positive nodal T‐ and NK‐cell lymphoma (EBV+ nPTCL ...

Covalent drug discovery: Progress against key targets, emerging strategies and lessons learnt

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Covalent drug discovery is currently experiencing a boom in industrial and academic interest. To date, at least 75 covalent drugs have received regulatory approval, targeting both traditional target classes and more challenging proteins for which other approaches failed. In many cases, unique aspects of covalent targeting are essential for the
