Histidine triad nucleotide-binding protein 1 (HINT1) is a member of a superfamily of histidine triad proteins named by the conserved nucleotide-binding motif histidine-x-histidine-x-histidine-xx, in which x represents hydrophobic amino acid. HINT1 is implicated in pathological progress of many human diseases including cancer and schizophrenia; however, little is known about the essential role and pathological consequences of HINT1 in cellular physiology and diseases. Therefore, we summarize the structure, distribution, and physiological function of HINT1 in cells and tissues as well as the correlation between HINT1 and human diseases.

Background: Autosomal recessive inherited pathogenetic variants in the histidine triad nucleotide-binding protein 1 () gene are responsible for an axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy associated with neuromyotonia, a phenomenon resulting from peripheral nerve hyperexcitability that causes a spontaneous muscle activity such as persistent muscle contraction, impaired relaxation and myokymias.

Methods: Herein, we describe two brothers in whom biallelic variants were identified following a multidisciplinary approach.

Results: The younger brother came to our attention for clinical evaluation of moderate intellectual disability, language developmental delay, and some behavioral issues.

This study aims to investigate the mechanism by which Histidine triad nucleotide-binding protein 1 (HINT1) promotes hippocampal neuronal apoptosis, triggering schizophrenia (SZ)-like behavior in rats. By establishing a rat SZ-like model, we assessed learning, memory, emotional response, and cognitive function through the Morris Water Maze, auditory startle response, and open field tests. HINT1 expression in the hippocampus was analyzed via RT-PCR and Western blot.

Bemnifosbuvir (AT-527) and AT-752 are guanosine analogues currently in clinical trials against several RNA viruses. Here, we show that these drugs require a minimal set of 5 cellular enzymes for activation to their common 5'-triphosphate AT-9010, with an obligate order of reactions. AT-9010 selectively inhibits essential viral enzymes, accounting for antiviral potency.

Novel GNAI3 mutation in a Chinese family with auriculocondylar syndrome and treatment of severe dentofacial deformities: a 5-year follow-up case report.

Background: Auriculocondylar syndrome (ARCND) is an extremely rare autosomal dominant or recessive condition that typically manifests as question mark ears (QMEs), mandibular condyle hypoplasia, and micrognathia. Severe dental and maxillofacial malformations present considerable challenges in patients' lives and clinical treatment. Currently, only a few ARCND cases have been reported worldwide, but most of them are related to genetic mutations, clinical symptoms, and ear correction; there are few reports concerning the treatment of dentofacial deformities.

Blau syndrome is a rare familial autoinflammatory disorder characterized by the triad of granulomatous dermatitis, polyarthritis, and uveitis. Blau syndrome exhibits an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern and can be caused by a gain-of-function mutation in nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain 2 (NOD2), a member of the NOD-like receptor family of pattern recognition receptors. Mutations in NOD2 cause upregulation of inflammatory cytokines and resultant autoinflammation.
