Fight Aging! Newsletter, August 14th 2023
This study demonstrates just how vital the thymus is to maintaining adult health." « Back to Top Does Amyloid-β Aggregation Cause Broad Disruption of Proteostasis? https://www.fightaging.org/archives/2023/08/does-amyloid-%ce%b2-aggregation-cause-broad-disruption-of-proteostasis/ Researchers here speculate on the ability of insoluble amyloid-β aggregates to be broadly disruptive of the solubility of many other proteins, and thus disruptive to cell and tissue function. Is this important in aging? The evidence here shows the existence of the mechanism in a lower species, but that doesn't n...

Viral nanoparticles: Current advances in design and development
Biochimie. 2023 Aug 10:S0300-9084(23)00197-9. doi: 10.1016/j.biochi.2023.08.006. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTViral nanoparticles (VNPs) are self-assembling, adaptable delivery systems for vaccines and other therapeutic agents used in a variety of biomedical applications. The potential of viruses to invade and infect various hosts and cells renders them suitable as potential nanocarriers, possessing distinct functional characteristics, immunogenic properties, and improved biocompatibility and biodegradability. VPNs are frequently produced through precise genetic or chemical engineering, which involves adding diverse seque...

Alphaviruses in cancer immunotherapy
Int Rev Cell Mol Biol. 2023;379:143-168. doi: 10.1016/bs.ircmb.2023.03.011. Epub 2023 Jun 14.ABSTRACTAlphaviruses have frequently been engineered for cancer therapy, cancer immunotherapy, and cancer vaccine development. As members of self-replicating RNA viruses, alphaviruses provide high levels of transgene expression through efficient self-amplifying of their RNA genome in host cells. Alphavirus vectors can be used as recombinant viral particles or oncolytic viruses. Alternatively, either naked or nanoparticle-encapsulated RNA and DNA replicons can be utilized. In the context of cancer prevention and treatment, antitumor...
