The role of integrins previously implicated as rotavirus receptors in determining cellular susceptibility to SA11 rotavirus was studied, using phorbol dibutyrate (PDB) treatment of K562 cells to induce megakaryocytic differentiation. Expression of alpha2beta1 integrin was detected after 2 days in PDB, and peaked after PDB treatment for 4-7 days. SA11 titres were increased by 1.8- to 10.8-fold over untreated cells after PDB treatment for 2-7 days, and correlated with levels of alpha2beta1 integrin expression in PDB-treated K562 cells.

5-Methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) are crucial epigenetic modifications in eukaryotic genomic DNA that regulate gene expression and are associated with the occurrence of various cancers. Here, we combined bisulfite conversion with 4-acetamido-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-oxopiperridinium tetrafluoroborate (ACTBF, TCI) oxidation to develop a label-free and sequence-independent isothermal amplification (BTIA) assay for a genome-wide 5mC and 5hmC analysis. The BTIA strategy can distinguish 5mC and 5hmC signatures from other bases with high sensitivity and good specificity, avoiding sophisticated chemical modifications and expensive protein labeling.

Background: A number of immunotherapeutic approaches have been developed and are entering the clinic. Bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) are one of these modalities and induce robust efficacy by endogenous T cells in several hematological malignancies. However, most of the treated patients experience only a temporary benefit.

: Treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has revolutionized disease management and has transformed CML from a life-threatening disease to a chronic condition for many patients. However, overcoming resistance, particularly related to leukemic stem cells (LSC) that can persist even when the bulk of the leukemic cells are eliminated, remains a significant challenge. : K562 and KU812 cell lines were treated in vitro with the TKI Imatinib (IM).

The hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway has been demonstrated to play a pivotal role in the process of high-altitude adaptation. PHD2, a key regulator of the HIF pathway, has been found to be associated with erythropoiesis. However, the relationship between changes in Phd2 abundance and erythroid differentiation under hypoxic conditions remains to be elucidated.
