Interleukin-13 Receptor Subunit Alpha 2 Induces Chemokine Expression and Macrophage Polarization to Promote Inflammation and Fibrosis.

Purpose: Interleukin-13 (IL-13) is a known mediator of radiation-induced lung injury (RILI). IL-13Rα2 has an accepted role in antagonizing IL-13 signaling by acting as a decoy receptor. We sought to understand the role of IL-13Rα2 in the progression of RILI.

Whole-blood RNA biomarkers for predicting survival in non-human primates following thoracic radiation.

Radiation injury, either from radiotherapy or a mass-casualty event requires a health care system that can efficiently allocate resources to patients. We conducted a comprehensive transcriptome analysis of whole blood from a nonhuman primate model that received upper thoracic radiation (9.8-10.

and mutations in a patient with a neurodevelopmental disorder and immunodeficiency.

The Tousled-like kinases 1 and 2 (TLK1/TLK2) regulate DNA replication, repair and chromatin maintenance. TLK2 variants underlie the neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD) 'Intellectual Disability, Autosomal Dominant 57' (MRD57), characterized by intellectual disability and microcephaly. Several TLK1 variants have been reported in NDDs but their functional significance is unknown.

Corrigendum: Glioblastoma survival is associated with distinct proteomic alteration signatures post chemoirradiation in a large-scale proteomic panel.

Multiomic-Based Molecular Landscape of FaDu Xenograft Tumors in Mice after a Combinatorial Treatment with Radiation and an HSP90 Inhibitor Identifies Adaptation-Induced Targets of Resistance and Therapeutic Intervention.

Treatments involving radiation and chemotherapy alone or in combination have improved patient survival and quality of life. However, cancers frequently evade these therapies due to adaptation and tumor evolution. Given the complexity of predicting response based solely on the initial genetic profile of a patient, a predetermined treatment course may miss critical adaptation that can cause resistance or induce new targets for drug and immunotherapy.
