Purpose: In this study, we identified and diagnosed a novel inherited condition called Dyschromatosis, Ichthyosis, Deafness, and Atopic Disease (DIDA) syndrome. We present a series of studies to clarify the pathogenic variants and specific mechanism.
Methods: Exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing was conducted in affected and unaffected family members. A variety of human and cell studies were performed to explore the pathogenic process of keratosis.
Results: Our finding indicated that DIDA syndrome was caused by compound heterozygous variants in the oxysterol-binding protein-related protein 2 (OSBPL2) gene. Furthermore, our findings revealed a direct interaction between OSBPL2 and Phosphoinositide phospholipase C-beta-3 (PLCB3), a key player in hyperkeratosis. OSBPL2 effectively inhibits the ubiquitylation of PLCB3, thereby stabilizing PLCB3. Conversely, OSBPL2 variants lead to enhanced ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of PLCB3, leading to epidermal hyperkeratosis, characterized by aberrant proliferation and delayed terminal differentiation of keratinocytes.
Conclusions: Our study not only unveiled the association between OSBPL2 variants and the newly identified DIDA syndrome but also shed light on the underlying mechanism.

Adoptive NK cell therapy in AML: progress and challenges.

Immunology Department, Leibniz Research Center for Working Environment and Human Factors at TU Dortmund (IfADo), Dortmund, Germany.
Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) using natural killer (NK) cells has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), addressing challenges such as chemotherapy resistance and high relapse rates. Over the years, clinical trials and studies have explored various sources of NK cells, including ex vivo expanded NK cell lines, CAR-NK cells, peripheral blood-derived NK cells, and umbilical cord blood-derived NK cells. These therapies have demonstrated varying degrees of therapeutic efficacy, ranging from transient anti-leukemia activity to sustained remission in select patient groups.

A short-cut review was carried out to establish whether haloperidol is effective at treating the symptoms of cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome (CHS). One study was directly relevant to the question. The author, date and country of publication, patient group studied, study type, relevant outcomes, results and study weaknesses of that paper were tabulated.

Src is a nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase that is expressed widely throughout the central nervous system and is involved in diverse biological functions. Mice homozygous for a spontaneous mutation in Src (Src (thl/thl) ) exhibited hypersociability and hyperactivity along with impairments in visuospatial, amygdala-dependent, and motor learning as well as an increased startle response to loud tones. The phenotype of Src (thl/thl) mice showed significant overlap with Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS), a disorder caused by the deletion of several genes, including General Transcription Factor 2-I (GTF2I).
