Article Synopsis
- Understanding how viruses like influenza A interact with cellular processes can help develop treatments targeting host cells.
- Researchers found that specific components of the Cullin 4-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases (CRL4), essential for virus replication, change their interactions during infection.
- The study revealed that IAV infection alters protein associations, impacting cellular functions such as protein folding and stress responses, which could lead to new antiviral strategies.
Background: Pacific Islanders are underrepresented in vaccine efficacy trials. Few studies describe their immune response to COVID-19 vaccination. Yet, this characterization is crucial to re-enforce vaccination strategies adapted to Pacific Islanders singularities.

- The European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) has established a continental registry over 30 years, currently housing data on over 700,000 patients and 800,000 transplants, which supports various research and benchmarking efforts in hematopoietic cell transplantation.
- The introduction of CAR-T cell therapies, which could significantly impact blood and marrow transplantation practices, prompted EBMT to create a Cellular Therapy Form that registers CAR-T cell treated patients and collects detailed outcome data.
- The EBMT Registry received approval from the European Medicines Agency in 2019 and now holds information on more than 9,000 patients treated with CAR-T cells, facilitating analyses and evaluations of these therapies' medical value within different contexts
Antibodies play a pivotal role in protecting from SARS-CoV-2 infection, but their efficacy is challenged by the continuous emergence of viral variants. In this study, we describe two broadly neutralizing antibodies cloned from the memory B cells of a single convalescent individual after infection with ancestral SARS-CoV-2. Cv2.
