Hyperglycemia secondary to phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) inhibition.

Summary: Phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) is a critical intracellular pathway that regulates cell growth, metabolism, and survival and has been implicated in most human cancers. Targeting this pathway has been approved as a therapeutic option for breast cancer and lymphoma (e.g.

Immune Cell Profiles of Patients with Sickle Cell Disease during Parvovirus B19-Induced Transient Red Cell Aplasia.

Parvovirus B19 frequently infects children and targets cells of the erythroid lineage. Although healthy children rarely suffer severe disease, children with sickle cell disease (SCD) can experience transient red cell aplasia (TRCA), hospitalization, and life-threatening anemia upon first virus exposure. Given that children with SCD can also suffer chronic inflammation and that parvovirus B19 has been associated with autoimmune disease in other patient populations, we asked if parvovirus B19 infections contributed to acute and chronic immune abnormalities in children with SCD.

HEX17(Neumifil): An intranasal respiratory biotherapeutic with broad-acting antiviral activity.

Broad-acting antiviral strategies to prevent respiratory tract infections are urgently required. Emerging or re-emerging viral diseases caused by new or genetic variants of viruses such as influenza viruses (IFVs), respiratory syncytial viruses (RSVs), human rhinoviruses (HRVs), parainfluenza viruses (PIVs) or coronaviruses (CoVs), pose a severe threat to human health, particularly in the very young or old, or in those with pre-existing respiratory conditions such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Although vaccines remain a key component in controlling and preventing viral infections, they are unable to provide broad-spectrum protection against recurring seasonal infections or newly emerging threats.
