Article Synopsis
  • High ATP levels in tumors lead to the production of adenosine, which suppresses T cells and NK cell function, creating an immunosuppressive environment detrimental to anti-tumor immunity.
  • CD73 plays a key role in converting ATP to adenosine, and high CD73 levels are associated with worse cancer outcomes, making it an important target for therapy.
  • A new series of non-nucleoside inhibitors have been developed to specifically target CD73, with one compound showing promise in enhancing immune response against tumors when used alongside other treatments.

Schizophrenia risk proteins ZNF804A and NT5C2 interact in cortical neurons.

Eur J Neurosci

April 2024

Department of Basic and Clinical Neuroscience, The Maurice Wohl Clinical Neuroscience Institute, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King's College London, London, UK.

The zinc finger protein 804A (ZNF804A) and the 5'-nucleotidase cytosolic II (NT5C2) genes are amongst the first schizophrenia susceptibility genes to have been identified in large-scale genome-wide association studies. ZNF804A has been implicated in the regulation of neuronal morphology and is required for activity-dependent changes to dendritic spines. Conversely, NT5C2 has been shown to regulate 5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase activity and has been implicated in protein synthesis in human neural progenitor cells.

Background - Retinoblastoma (RB) is an intraocular malignancy usually observed in children. The zinc finger protein, FOG family member 2 (ZFPM2)-antisense RNA 1 (AS1), an anomalous long non-coding RNA, is detected in many cancers. This study aimed to evaluate the role and underlying mechanism of ZFPM2-AS1 in RB.

Effect of Maternal Marginal Zinc Deficiency on Development, Redox Status, and Gene Expression Related to Oxidation and Apoptosis in an Avian Embryo Model.

Oxid Med Cell Longev

February 2022

Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Animal Nutrition and Regulation, College of Animal Science, South China Agricultural University, Guangzhou 510000, China.

Maternal severe zinc (Zn) deficiency resulted in growth retardation and high mortality during embryonic development in human. Therefore, this study is aimed at evaluating the effect of maternal marginal Zn deficiency on the development and redox status to avoid severe Zn deficiency using an avian model. A total of 324 laying duck breeders at 214 days old were randomly allotted into 3 dietary Zn levels with 6 replicates of 18 ducks per replicate.
