Management strategies for common viral infections in pediatric renal transplant recipients
World J Transplant. 2024 Mar 18;14(1):89978. doi: 10.5500/wjt.v14.i1.89978.ABSTRACTViral infections have been considered as a major cause of morbidity and mortality after kidney transplantation in pediatric cohort. Children are at high risk of acquiring virus-related complications due to immunological immaturity and the enhanced alloreactivity risk that led to maintenance of high immunosuppressive regimes. Hence, prevention, early detection, and prompt treatment of such infe ctions are of paramount importance. Among all viral infections, herpes viruses (herpes simplex virus, varicella zoster virus, Epstein-Barr virus, cyto...

While immunotherapies like immune checkpoint inhibitors and CAR-T cells have demonstrated impressive results, their limitations in inducing complete tumour regression have spurred researchers to explore new approaches targeting tumours resistant to current immunotherapies. OVs, both natural and genetically engineered, selectively replicate within cancer cells, inducing their lysis while sparing normal tissues. Rec...

Viruses, Vol. 16, Pages 567: Oncolytic Adenovirus for the Targeting of Paclitaxel-Resistant Breast Cancer Stem Cells
Davydova Adjuvant systemic therapies effectively reduce the risk of breast cancer recurrence and metastasis, but therapy resistance can develop in some patients due to breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs). Oncolytic adenovirus (OAd) represents a promising therapeutic approach as it can specifically target cancer cells. However, its potential to target BCSCs remains unclear. Here, we evaluated a Cox-2 promoter-controlled, Ad5/3 fiber-modified OAd designed to encode the human sodium iodide symporter (hNIS) in breast cancer models. To confirm the potential of OAds to target BCSCs, we employed BCSC-enriched estrogen receptor...

Augmented Mitochondrial Transfer Involved in Astrocytic PSPH Attenuates Cognitive Dysfunction in db/db Mice
AbstractDiabetes-associated cognitive dysfunction (DACD) has ascended to become the second leading cause of mortality among diabetic patients. Phosphoserine phosphatase (PSPH), a pivotal rate-limiting enzyme in L-serine biosynthesis, has been documented to instigate the insulin signaling pathway through dephosphorylation. Concomitantly, CD38, acting as a mediator in mitochondrial transfer, is activated by the insulin pathway. Given that we have demonstrated the beneficial effects of exogenous mitochondrial supplementation on DACD, we further hypothesized whether astrocytic PSPH could contribute to improving DACD by promoti...

Overexpression of HSP27 accelerates stress-induced gastric ulcer healing via the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis
Clin Exp Pharmacol Physiol. 2024 May;51(5):e13857. doi: 10.1111/1440-1681.13857.ABSTRACTChronic stress often triggers gastrointestinal complications, including gastric injury and ulcers. Understanding the role of heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) in stress-induced gastric ulcers could unveil novel therapeutic targets. Here, we established a stress-induced gastric ulcer rat model using water immersion restraint stress and administered adenovirus-packaged HSP27 overexpression vector. Gastric ulcer severity was scored, and mucosal changes were assessed. Gastric epithelial and endothelial cells were treated with lipopolysaccharide...
