Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy is one of the most promising cancer treatments. However, different hurdles are limiting its application and efficacy. In this context, how aging influences CAR-T cell outcomes is largely unknown. Here we show ...
Noroviruses and enteroviruses are major causes of endemic gastrointestinal disease associated with substantial disease burden. However, viral gastroenteritis is often diagnosed based on symptoms, with etiology infrequently tested or reported, so little inf ...
Proteins are macromolecular machines central to virtually every fundamental biological function. Three-dimensional protein structures, determined by their amino acid composition, are directly linked to their function. Research into structure-function relat ...
HIV-1 remains a global health crisis(1), highlighting the need to identify new targets for therapies. Here, given the disproportionate HIV-1 burden and marked human genome diversity in Africa(2), we assessed the genetic determinants of control of set-point ...
Acute graft versus host disease (aGvHD) is a life-threatening complication of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) inflicted by alloreactive T cells primed in secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and subsequent damage to aGvHD target tissue ...
Objective: Disturbances in NAD+ metabolism have been described as a hallmark for multiple metabolic and age-related diseases, including type 2 diabetes. While alterations in pancreatic (3-cell function are critical determinants of whole-body glucose homeos ...
The stress on the environment is increasing as the human population living on it increases. Water eutrophication, a leading cause of impairment of many freshwater and coastal marine ecosystems in the world, is a typical consequence of anthropogenic pressur ...
Mycolactone is a polyketide toxin produced by Mycobacterium ulcerans (Mu), the causative agent of the skin disease Buruli ulcer (BU). Surprisingly, infected tissues lack inflammatory infiltrates. Structural similarities between mycolactone and immunosuppre ...
