The TRRAP transcription cofactor represses interferon-stimulated genes in colorectal cancer cells

Dylane Detilleux et al.

Summary: Transcription factor TRRAP plays a crucial role in transcription activation as part of the SAGA and TIP60 complexes. Recent studies have revealed the involvement of the TTT subunit TELO2 in TRRAP assembly and its regulatory roles in colorectal cancer cells, including the regulation of MYC target genes and the unexpected induction of interferon genes. This study proposes a model in which TRRAP directly represses the transcription of IRF9, a master regulator of interferon-stimulated genes, revealing an unexpected repressor role for TRRAP.

Emerging Canonical and Non-Canonical Roles of Granzyme B in Health and Disease

Ellis Tibbs et al.

Summary: Granzyme B (GzmB) is a potent cytotoxic molecule used by cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells to kill infected or cancerous cells. Recent studies have shown that GzmB plays a role in tissue development and repair, in addition to cell death. Understanding the function of GzmB in different clinical conditions is important for a comprehensive understanding of the immune system and tissue development.

Biallelic variants in coenzyme Q10 biosynthesis pathway genes cause a retinitis pigmentosa phenotype

Neringa Jurkute et al.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate the defects in the biosynthesis pathway of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ(10)) in inherited retinal dystrophy. By performing exome or genome sequencing on individuals with inherited retinal dystrophy, patients carrying biallelic variants in CoQ(10) biosynthesis pathway genes were identified. The study provides evidence of CoQ(10) biosynthesis pathway gene defects leading to non-syndromic retinitis pigmentosa in some cases. Intronic variants outside of the canonical splice-sites were shown to be an important cause of the disease.

Whole-Exome Sequencing of Patients With Recurrent HSV-2 Lymphocytic Mollaret Meningitis

Alon Schneider Hait et al.

Summary: Recurrent lymphocytic meningitis, also known as Mollaret meningitis, is a rare neurological disease characterized by reactivation of herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) from sensory ganglia. Through whole-exome sequencing, rare host genetic variants predicted to be deleterious, as well as reduced antiviral interferon responses in patient cells, were identified. These findings could enhance understanding of disease pathogenesis and immunity to HSV, potentially leading to improved prophylaxis and treatment strategies.

Summary: NK cells are effector cells of the innate immune system involved in defense against virus-infected and transformed cells. A study showed that in the absence of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR), NK cells have reduced capacity to migrate and infiltrate tumors. AHR regulates the expression of Asb2 and filamin A, affecting the migration ability of NK cells.

Change in Cav3.2 T-Type Calcium Channel Induced by Varicella-Zoster Virus Participates in the Maintenance of Herpetic Neuralgia

Rongzhen Li et al.

Summary: Pain is the most common neurological complication of herpes zoster, including postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), and the occurrence and development of PHN are still elusive. However, research has found that VZV may participate in zoster-associated pain by upregulating the expression of Cav3.2 in DRG and SDH, providing a new promising drug target for relieving PHN.

The Role of Autophagy in Varicella Zoster Virus Infection

Johanna Heinz et al.

Summary: Autophagy is an evolutionary conserved cellular process that degrades cytosolic organelles or foreign material to maintain cellular homeostasis, and has emerged as an important process in complex interactions with viral pathogens during infection. The role of autophagy in Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) infection appears to be complex and sometimes opposing, with evidence suggesting both proviral and antiviral effects depending on the specific virus and cellular context.
