CSF-contacting neurons respond to Streptococcus pneumoniae and promote host survival during central nervous system infection

Ludovic Pierre Gustave Keiser, Laura Desban

The pathogenic bacterium Streptococcus pneumoniae (S. pneumoniae) can invade the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and cause meningitis with devastating consequences. Whether and how sensory cells in the central nervous system (CNS) become activated during bacteri ...

The influence of human genetic variation on Epstein–Barr virus sequence diversity

Jacques Fellay, Dylan Lawless, Olivier Noël Marie Naret, Christian Hammer, Sina Rüeger

Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is one of the most common viruses latently infecting humans. Little is known about the impact of human genetic variation on the large inter-individual differences observed in response to EBV infection. To search for a potential imp ...

Immune Checkpoint Inhibition in Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma: From Early Achievements towards New Perspectives

Filipe Amândio Brandão Sanches Vong Martins

Immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) became one of the major breakthroughs in cancer treatment over the past decade and entered into therapy within standard oncohematology practice. ICI has demonstrated impressive response rates as salvage therapy in relapse ...

An Interferon Regulated MicroRNA Provides Broad Cell-Intrinsic Antiviral Immunity through Multihit Host-Directed Targeting of the Sterol Pathway

Mathieu Blanc

In invertebrates, small interfering RNAs are at the vanguard of cell-autonomous antiviral immunity. In contrast, antiviral mechanisms initiated by interferon (IFN) signaling predominate in mammals. Whilst mammalian IFN-induced miRNA are known to inhibit sp ...

The anti-lymphoma activity of APO866, an inhibitor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide biosynthesis, is potentialized when used in combination with anti-CD20 antibody

Pierre Vogel, Somi Reddy Majjigapu, Bernard Sordat

APO866 is an inhibitor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) biosynthesis that exhibits potent anti-lymphoma activity. Rituximab (RTX), an anti-CD20 antibody, kills lymphoma cells by direct apoptosis and antibody- and complement-dependent cell-mediate ...

Frequent disruption of the RB pathway in indolent follicular lymphoma suggests a new combination therapy

Elisa Oricchio, Giovanni Ciriello

Loss of cell cycle controls is a hallmark of cancer and has a well-established role in aggressive B cell malignancies. However, the role of such lesions in indolent follicular lymphoma (FL) is unclear and individual lesions have been observed with low freq ...

Host miRNA regulation of human cytomegalovirus immediate early protein translation promotes viral latency

Jiri Vanicek

Reactivation of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a significant cause of disease and death in immunocompromised patients underscoring the need to understand how latency is controlled. Here we demonstrate that HCMV has evolved to utilize cellular miRNAs in ce ...

Absence of the steroid receptor coactivator-3 induces B-cell lymphoma

Johan Auwerx

Steroid receptor coactivator 3 (SRC-3/ACTR/AIB-1/pCIP/RAC3/TRAM-1) is a member of the p160 family of nuclear receptor coactivators that plays an important role in mammary gland growth, development, and tumorigenesis. We show that deletion of SRC-3 gene dec ...

Contribution of proteoglycans to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 brain invasion

Didier Trono

As a neurotropic virus, human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) invades the brain and causes severe neuronal, astrocyte, and myelin damage in AIDS patients. To gain access to the brain, HIV-1 must migrate through brain microvascular endothelial cells ( ...

Lentiviral-mediated gene transfer into haematopoietic stem cells

Didier Trono

OBJECTIVES: Lentiviral vectors can transduce nondividing cells. As most haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are nondividing in vivo, lentiviral vectors are promising viral vectors to transfer genes into HSCs. DESIGN AND SETTING: We have used HIV-1 based lenti ...
