Human papillomavirus 16 and human papillomavirus 18 have been associated with different life-threatening cancers, including cervical, lung, penal, vulval, vaginal, anal, and oropharyngeal cancers, while cervical cancer is the most prominent one. Several research studies have suggested that the oncoproteins E6 and E7 are the leading cause of cancers associated with the human papillomavirus infection. Therefore, we developed two mRNA vaccines (V1 and V2) targeting these oncoproteins.

Background: We previously identified that high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) is increased and undergoes post-translational modifications (PTMs) in response to alcohol consumption. Here, we hypothesized that specific PTMs, occurring mostly in hepatocytes and myeloid cells, could contribute to the pathogenesis of alcohol-associated liver disease (AALD).

Methods: We used the Lieber-DeCarli (LD) model of early alcohol-induced liver injury, combined with engineered viral vectors and genetic approaches to regulate the expression of HMGB1, its PTMs (reduced [H], oxidized [O], acetylated [Ac], both [O + Ac]), and its receptors (RAGE, TLR4) in a cell-specific manner (hepatocytes and/or myeloid cells).

Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) play a critical role in the regeneration of periodontal tissue. Forkhead box protein A1 (FOXA1) has been implicated in the inflammatory mechanisms of various diseases. However, the role of FOXA1 in periodontal inflammation and its effect on the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs remains unclear.
