Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative disorder that accounts for ~10% of all newly diagnosed leukemia cases. Early diagnosis is essential for long‑term beneficial outcomes. The present study observed that interferon‑induced protein with tetratricopeptde repeats 2 (IFIT2) expression levels were reduced in bone marrow samples from CML patients compared with control samples using RNA sequencing and reverse transcription‑PCR. IFIT2 expression levels were restored in patients treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. To investigate the effect of IFIT2 on CML patients, a stable IFIT2 expressing K562 cell line was established. It was demonstrated that IFIT2 overexpression in K562 cells inhibits cell proliferation and arrests the cell cycle at the G1 phase. In addition, it was demonstrated by western blotting that IFIT2 inhibits the BCR‑ABL oncoprotein and regulates its downstream AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. IFIT2 could induce cell cycle arrest‑associated gene p27kip1 by degrading cullin1‑mediated E3 ligases. In summary, the present study demonstrated that IFIT2 was efficacious in inhibiting CML and is a potential therapeutic target.

Elevated inflammatory reactions are a significant component in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI). Activation of α7-Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor (α7nAChR) reduces stroke-induced inflammation in rats, but the anti-inflammatory pathway in microglia under CIRI condition remains unclear. This study employed qRT-PCR, protein assays, NanoString analysis, and bioinformatics to examine the effects of PNU282987 treatment (α7nAChR agonist) on BV2 microglial functional differentiation in oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGDR) condition.

Exploration of common pathogenesis and candidate hub genes between HIV and monkeypox co-infection using bioinformatics and machine learning.

Sci Rep

This study explored the pathogenesis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and monkeypox co-infection, identifying candidate hub genes and potential drugs using bioinformatics and machine learning. Datasets for HIV (GSE 37250) and monkeypox (GSE 24125) were obtained from the GEO database. Common differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in co-infection were identified by intersecting DEGs from monkeypox datasets with genes from key HIV modules screened using Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis (WGCNA).

Article Synopsis
  • - The interferon (IFN) system is crucial for protecting mammals from viral infections by inducing the production of proteins that inhibit virus replication in neighboring cells.
  • - Researchers found that the IFN-induced protein IFIT2 is essential for protecting mice against infections from neurotropic RNA viruses like vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), particularly when expressed in neuronal cells.
  • - Using genetically modified mouse models, the study demonstrated that without IFIT2's RNA-binding activity, mice became highly susceptible to neurological diseases from VSV, highlighting the importance of IFIT2 in the antiviral response.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) and porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV) are the two most prevalent swine enteric coronaviruses worldwide. They commonly cause natural coinfections, which worsen as the disease progresses and cause increased mortality in piglets. To better understand the transcriptomic changes after PEDV and PDCoV coinfection, we compared LLC porcine kidney (LLC-PK) cells infected with PEDV and/or PDCoV and evaluated the differential expression of genes by transcriptomic analysis and real-time qPCR.

Apoptosis-enhancing nuclease (AEN), which shares close evolutionary relationships with the interferon-stimulated gene 20 protein (ISG20) homologs in humans, is a member of the DEDDh exonuclease family. Numerous studies on various pathogens have identified the essential roles of ISG20 in inhibiting virus replication. However, the fundamental functions of AEN during viral infection remain largely unknown.
