[Comparative analysis of different types of tampons used after septoplasty, conchotomy of the inferior turbinates].

Unlabelled: In otorhinolaryngology, the question of improving the tactics of early postoperative management in patients who have undergone surgery on the structures of the nasal cavity remains open. The timing of rehabilitation, the possible outcome of postoperative inflammation of the mucous membrane and the patient's ability to work depend on the choice of tactics. The nasal cavity differs from other anatomical areas in its rich blood supply, and therefore the problem of adequate hemostasis in the early stages after undergoing surgical treatment is still extremely relevant.

Actin-Dependent Mechanism of Tumor Progression Induced by a Dysfunction of p53 Tumor Suppressor.

Cancer cell aggressiveness, marked by actin cytoskeleton reconfiguration critical for metastasis, may result from an imbalanced ratio favoring γ-actin. Dysfunctional p53 emerges as a key regulator of invasiveness and migration in various cancer cells, both in vitro and in vivo. P53 inactivation (via mutants R175H, R248W, R273H, or TP53 repression) significantly enhanced the migration, invasion, and proliferation of human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells in vitro and in vivo, facilitating intrapulmonary xenograft metastasis in athymic mice.

Recombinant Strains of Oncolytic Vaccinia Virus for Cancer Immunotherapy.

Cancer virotherapy is an alternative therapeutic approach based on the viruses that selectively infect and kill tumor cells. Vaccinia virus (VV) is a member of the Poxviridae, a family of enveloped viruses with a large linear double-stranded DNA genome. The proven safety of the VV strains as well as considerable transgene capacity of the viral genome, make VV an excellent platform for creating recombinant oncolytic viruses for cancer therapy.

Oncolytic therapy with recombinant vaccinia viruses targeting the interleukin-15 pathway elicits a synergistic response.

We developed recombinant variants of oncolytic vaccinia virus LIVP strain expressing interleukin-15 (IL-15) or its receptor subunit alpha (IL-15Rα) to stimulate IL-15-dependent immune cells. We evaluated their oncolytic activity either alone or in combination with each other and using the murine CT26 colon carcinoma and 4T1 breast carcinoma models. We demonstrated that the admixture of these recombinant variants could promote the generation of the IL-15/IL-15Rα complex.

Oncolytic Efficacy of a Recombinant Vaccinia Virus Strain Expressing Bacterial Flagellin in Solid Tumor Models.

Oncolytic viral therapy is a promising novel approach to cancer treatment. Oncolytic viruses cause tumor regression through direct cytolysis on the one hand and recruiting and activating immune cells on the other. In this study, to enhance the antitumor efficacy of the thymidine kinase-deficient vaccinia virus (VV, Lister strain), recombinant variants encoding bacterial flagellin (subunit B) of (LIVP-FlaB-RFP), firefly luciferase (LIVP-Fluc-RFP) or red fluorescent protein (LIVP-RFP) were developed.

Recent Developments in Glioblastoma Therapy: Oncolytic Viruses and Emerging Future Strategies.

Glioblastoma is the most aggressive form of malignant brain tumor. Standard treatment protocols and traditional immunotherapy are poorly effective as they do not significantly increase the long-term survival of glioblastoma patients. Oncolytic viruses (OVs) may be an effective alternative approach.

2-Deoxyglucose, an Inhibitor of Glycolysis, Enhances the Oncolytic Effect of Coxsackievirus.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is one of the most common types of brain tumor. Despite intensive research, patients with GBM have a poor prognosis due to a very high rate of relapse and significant side effects of the treatment, with a median survival of 14.6 months.

Multiomic Profiling Identified EGF Receptor Signaling as a Potential Inhibitor of Type I Interferon Response in Models of Oncolytic Therapy by Vesicular Stomatitis Virus.

Cancer cell lines responded differentially to type I interferon treatment in models of oncolytic therapy using vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). Two opposite cases were considered in this study, glioblastoma DBTRG-05MG and osteosarcoma HOS cell lines exhibiting resistance and sensitivity to VSV after the treatment, respectively. Type I interferon responses were compared for these cell lines by integrative analysis of the transcriptome, proteome, and RNA editome to identify molecular factors determining differential effects observed.

Multi-Omics Analysis of Glioblastoma Cells' Sensitivity to Oncolytic Viruses.

Oncolytic viruses have gained momentum in the last decades as a promising tool for cancer treatment. Despite the progress, only a fraction of patients show a positive response to viral therapy. One of the key variable factors contributing to therapy outcomes is interferon-dependent antiviral mechanisms in tumor cells.

[The State of The Jak/Stat Pathway Affects the Sensitivity of TumorCells to Oncolytic Enteroviruses].

A test of the sensitivity of seven colon cancer cell lines to a panel of 12 nonpathogenic human enteroviruses revealed significant differences in the ability of tumor cells to become infected and replicate different viral strains. Among the factors that can affect the sensitivity of cells to viruses are differences in the state of the mechanisms of antiviral protection, associated with a reaction to type I interferons. Using the two colon cancer cell lines CaCo2 and LIM1215 as a model, significant differences were revealed in the ability of cells to defend themselves against virus infection after 16 hours of treatment with 1000 units/mL of interferon-alpha.

Mitochondrial localization of SESN2.

SESN2 is a member of the evolutionarily conserved sestrin protein family found in most of the Metazoa species. The SESN2 gene is transcriptionally activated by many stress factors, including metabolic derangements, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and DNA-damage. As a result, SESN2 controls ROS accumulation, metabolism, and cell viability.

p53-inducible SESTRINs might play opposite roles in the regulation of early and late stages of lung carcinogenesis.

SESTRINs (SESN1-3) are proteins encoded by an evolutionarily conserved gene family that plays an important role in the regulation of cell viability and metabolism in response to stress. Many of the effects of SESTRINs are mediated by negative and positive regulation of mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase complexes 1 and 2 (mTORC1 and mTORC2), respectively, that are often deregulated in human cancers where they support cell growth, proliferation, and cell viability. Besides their effects on regulation of mTORC1/2, SESTRINs also control the accumulation of reactive oxygen species, cell death, and mitophagy.

Directed evolution as a tool for the selection of oncolytic RNA viruses with desired phenotypes.

Viruses have some characteristics in common with cell-based life. They can evolve and adapt to environmental conditions. Directed evolution can be used by researchers to produce viral strains with desirable phenotypes.

Oncolytic Activity of the Vaccine Strain of Type 3 Poliovirus on the Model of Rat Glioma C6 Cells.

Rat glioma cell line C6 expressing human poliovirus receptor (PVR) and susceptible to polioviruses (C6-PVR-BFP) was used to produce a clone with knockout of IFNα/β (Ifnar1) receptor subunit 1 gene (Ifnar1). The sensitivity of C6-PVR-BFP cells to the vaccine strain of poliovirus type 3 (PV3) depended on the signaling pathways of the cell response to type 1 IFN. Using the model of subcutaneous tumor xenografts, we demonstrated oncolytic activity of PV3 against C6-PVR-BFP cells that depended on the expression of PVR and increased considerably upon disturbances in IFN response pathways.

NLRX1 regulates TNF-α-induced mitochondria-lysosomal crosstalk to maintain the invasive and metastatic potential of breast cancer cells.

An increased level of proinflammatory cytokines, including TNF-α in tumor microenvironment regulates the bioenergetic capacity, immune evasion and survival of cancer cells. Emerging evidences suggest that mitochondrial immune signaling proteins modulates mitochondrial bioenergetic capacity, in addition to the regulation of innate immune response. The optimal oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) capacity is required for the maintenance of functional lysosomes and autophagy flux.

Relationship between Cell Receptors and Tumor Cell Sensitivity to Oncolytic Enteroviruses.

Replicative ability of 5 oncolytic enterovirus strains was evaluated on a panel of 18 human normal and tumor cells. The capacity of each cell line to support replication of enterovirus strains varied. Cell lines weakly replicating one virus could be highly sensitive to another viral strain.

Defects in interferon pathways as potential biomarkers of sensitivity to oncolytic viruses.

Increased sensitivity of cancer cells to viruses is a prerequisite for the success of oncolytic virotherapy. One of the major causes of such a phenotype is the disruption of innate antiviral defenses associated with dysfunction of type 1 interferons (IFNs) that permits unlimited replication of viruses in cancer cells. Defects in IFN pathways help cancer progression by providing additional advantages to tumor cells.

[Oncolytic Paramyxoviruses: Mechanism of Action, Preclinical and Clinical Studies].

Preclinical studies demonstrate that a broad spectrum of human and animal malignant cells can be killed by oncolytic paramyxoviruses, which includes cells of ecto-, endo- and mesodermal origin. In clinical trials, significant reduction or even complete elimination of primary tumors and established metastases has been reported. Different routes of virus administration (intratumoral, intravenous, intradermal, intraperito-neal, or intrapleural) and single- vs.

NLRX1 resides in mitochondrial RNA granules and regulates mitochondrial RNA processing and bioenergetic adaptation.

The role of mitochondria is emerging in regulation of innate immunity, inflammation and cell death beyond its primary role in energy metabolism. Mitochondria act as molecular platform for immune adaptor protein complexes, which participate in innate immune signaling. The mitochondrial localized immune adaptors are widely expressed in non-immune cells, however their role in regulation of mitochondrial function and metabolic adaption is not well understood.

Oncolytic Sendai Virus Therapy of Canine Mast Cell Tumors (A Pilot Study).

Canine mastocytomas (mast cell tumors) represent a common malignancy among many dog breeds. A typical treatment strategy for canine mastocytomas includes surgery, chemo- and radio-therapy, although in many cases the therapy fails and the disease progression resumes. New treatment approaches are needed.

Expression of long non-coding RNA LINC00973 is consistently increased upon treatment of colon cancer cells with different chemotherapeutic drugs.

Early prediction of tumor relapse depends on the identification of new prognostic cancer biomarkers, which are suitable for monitoring tumor response to different chemotherapeutic drugs. Using RNA-Seq, RT-qPCR, bioinformatics, and studies utilizing the murine tumor xenograft model, we have found significant and consistent changes in the abundance of five lincRNAs (LINC00973, LINC00941, CASC19, CCAT1, and BCAR4) upon treatment of both HT-29 and HCT-116 cells with 5-fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan at different doses and durations; both in vitro and in vivo. The most frequent changes were detected for LINC00973, whose content is most strongly and consistently increased upon treatment of both colon cancer cell lines with all three chemotherapeutic drugs.

Profiling modifications for glioblastoma proteome using ultra-tolerant database search: Are the peptide mass shifts biologically relevant or chemically induced?

Peptide mass shifts were profiled using ultra-tolerant database search strategy for shotgun proteomics data sets of human glioblastoma cell lines demonstrating strong response to the type I interferon (IFNα-2b) treatment. The main objective of this profiling was revealing the cell response to IFN treatment at the level of protein modifications. To achieve this objective, statistically significant changes in peptide mass shift profiles between IFN treated and untreated glioblastoma samples were analyzed.

Implication of KRT16, FAM129A and HKDC1 genes as ATF4 regulated components of the integrated stress response.

The ATF4 transcription factor is a key regulator of the adaptive integrated stress response (ISR) induced by various stresses and pathologies. Identification of novel transcription targets of ATF4 during ISR would contribute to the understanding of adaptive networks and help to identify novel therapeutic targets. We were previously searching for genes that display an inverse regulation mode by the transcription factors ATF4 and p53 in response to mitochondrial respiration chain complex III inhibition.
