The potential of RNA-based liquid biopsy is increasingly being recognized in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. This study explores the cell-free transcriptome in a humanized DLBCL patient-derived tumor xenograft (PDTX) model. Blood plasma samples (n = 171) derived from a DLBCL PDTX model, including 27 humanized (HIS) PDTX, 8 HIS non-PDTX, and 21 non-HIS PDTX non-obese diabetic (NOD)-scid IL2Rgnull (NSG) mice were collected during humanization, xenografting, treatment, and sacrifice.

However, its pleiotropic nature leads to severe dose-limiting toxicities that blunt its therapeutic potential. To achieve selective targeting of specific immune or tumor cells, AcTakines (Activity-on-Target Cytokines), i.

Here, we describe the identification of a class of compounds called ReS19-T, which are able to restore calcium homeostasis in cell-based models of tau pathology. Aberrant tau accumulation leads to uncontrolled activation of store-operated calcium channels (SOCCs) by remodeling septin filaments at the cell cortex.

- The study investigates the interaction between the transcription factor PPARα and the orphan nuclear receptor ERRα, highlighting its dependence on specific ligands and potential physiological significance.
- Various assays confirmed that ERRα functions as a transcriptional repressor of PPARα target genes, implying a complex relationship between these two receptors.
- The research utilized mutagenesis and transactivation studies to characterize the interaction and suggested that ERRα influences PPARα activity through coregulators, especially under conditions like serum deprivation.
