Non-invasive plasma glycomic and metabolic biomarkers of post-treatment control of HIV
Current HIV cure-focused clinical trials rely on analytic treatment interruption (ATI) to evaluate post-treatment control (PTC). Here, combining untargetted metabolomics and glycomics in two HIV clinical cohorts, in vitro assays, and machine learning ...

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is associated with 10% of human gastric carcinomas, which are distinguished by a CpG island methylator phenotype. In gastric carcinoma tumors and cell lines, the EBV genome also exhibits a high degree of 5-methyl cytosine (5mC ...

Effect of an extract of Centella asiatica on the biodistribution of sodium pertechnetate (Na99mTcO4) and on the fixation of radioactivity on blood constituents [PDF]
This study evaluates the effects of an acute treatment with a Centella asiatica (CA) extract on the biodistribution of the radiopharmaceutical Na99mTcO4 and on the fixation of technetium-99m on blood constituents. Wistar rats were treated with CA extract

Caloric restriction that extends lifespan induces the expression of PGC‐1α and MIPEP in white adipose tissue. In this study, co‐overexpression of Pgc‐1α and Mipep upregulated the gene expression of PHOSPHO1. These findings provide new insights into mitochondria‐related mechanisms underlying the effects of caloric restriction in adipocytes.

SWI/SNF catalytic subunits’ switch drives resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in ARID1A-mutated cells
The mechanism of resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in cancers with inactivating SWI/SNF mutations is unknown. Here, the authors demonstrate that the switch of the SWI/SNF catalytic subunits from SMARCA4 to SMARCA2 drives resistance to EZH2 inhibitors in ...

Blockade of alpha 2-adrenergic receptors in prelimbic cortex: impact on cocaine self-administration in adult spontaneously hypertensive rats following adolescent atomoxetine treatment [PDF]
RATIONALE: Research with the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) model of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder demonstrated that chronic methylphenidate treatment during adolescence increased cocaine self-administration established during adulthood ...

Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate (EGCG) acutely inhibited gluconeogenesis and enhanced glycolysis, glycogenolysis, and fatty acid oxidation in perfused rat livers. Mechanistic assays revealed mitochondrial uncoupling, inhibition of pyruvate carboxylation and glucose‐6‐phosphatase, shift of NADH/NAD+ ratios toward oxidation, and loss of membrane integrity ...

Histone variant H2A.Z cooperates with EBNA1 to maintain Epstein-Barr virus latent epigenome
Chromatin structure plays a central role in the regulation of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latency. The histone variant H2A.Z.1 has been implicated in chromatin structures associated with the initiation of transcription and DNA replication.

TERRA G-quadruplex RNA interaction with TRF2 GAR domain is required for telomere integrity
Telomere dysfunction causes chromosomal instability which is associated with many cancers and age-related diseases. The non-coding telomeric repeat-containing RNA (TERRA) forms a structural and regulatory component of the telomere that is implicated in ...
