Btk SH2-kinase interface is critical for allosteric kinase activation and its targeting inhibits B-cell neoplasms

Matteo Dal Peraro, Oliver Hantschel, Florence Pojer, Sandrine Madeleine Suzanne Georgeon, Maria Josefina Marcaida Lopez, Allan Joaquim Lamontanara, Grégory La Sala, Tim Kükenshöner, Daniel Pereira Duarte

Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) is critical for B-cell maturation and activation. Btk loss-of-function mutations cause human X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA). In contrast, Btk signaling sustains growth of several B-cell neoplasms which may be treated with ...

Allosteric regulation and targeting of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) in B-cell lymphoma

Daniel Pereira Duarte

Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) is a key component of BCR signaling required for B-cell maturation and activation. Loss-of-function mutations throughout the Btk protein cause human X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), a heritable genetic disorder characterize ...

Variability in Disinfection Resistance between Currently Circulating Enterovirus B Serotypes and Strains

Tamar Kohn, Simon Meister, Matthew Eric Verbyla

The susceptibility of waterborne viruses to disinfection is known to vary between viruses and even between closely related strains, yet the extent of this variation is not known. Here, different enteroviruses (six strains of coxsackievirus B5, two strains ...

Inflammatory arthritis and systemic bone loss are attenuated by gastrointestinal helminth parasites

Nicola Harris, Mario Michael Zaiss, Manuel Kulagin

Infections with different helminth species have been observed to ameliorate a variety of chronic inflammatory diseases. Herein, we show that the natural murine helminth species, Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri (Hp) is capable of attenuating disease severi ...

Exome Sequencing Reveals Primary Immunodeficiencies in Children with Community-Acquired Pseudomonas aeruginosa Sepsis

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren, Istvan Bartha, Samira Asgari

One out of three pediatric sepsis deaths in high income countries occur in previously healthy children. Primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) have been postulated to underlie fulminant sepsis, but this concept remains to be confirmed in clinical practice. Pseu ...

Different flavors of Toll guide olfaction

Bruno Lemaitre, Claudine Danielle Patricia Öngen

Toll-like receptors are historically linked to immunity across animal phyla, but accumulating evidence suggests they play additional roles in neuronal networks and in cell-cell interactions. Ward and colleagues now identify Toll-6 and Toll-7 as instructive ...

Identification of genetic insulator elements to increase the safety of viral gene therapy vectors

Haematopoeitic system diseases, both acquired and inherited, can be currently cured by allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This treatment provides highly successful immune function recovery for patients receiving grafts of HLA-compatible d ...

Oncogenesis Following Delivery of a Nonprimate Lentiviral Gene Therapy Vector to Fetal and Neonatal Mice

Didier Trono

Gene therapy by use of integrating vectors carrying therapeutic transgene sequences offers the potential for a permanent cure of genetic diseases by stable vector insertion into the patients' chromosomes. However, three cases of T cell lymphoproliferative ...
