Published: November 2024

Herpesviruses are ubiquitous DNA viruses that can establish latency and cause a range of mild to life-threatening diseases in humans. Upon infection, herpesviruses trigger the activation of several host antiviral defense programs that play critical roles in curbing virus replication and dissemination. Recent work from many groups has integrated our understanding of TRIM () proteins, a specific group of E3 ligase enzymes, as pivotal orchestrators of mammalian antiviral immunity. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the modulation of innate immune signaling by TRIM proteins during herpesvirus infection, with a focus on the detection of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1, a prototype herpesvirus) by cGAS-STING, RIG-I-like receptors, and Toll-like receptors. We also review the latest progress in understanding the intricate relationship between herpesvirus replication and TRIM protein-regulated autophagy and apoptosis. Finally, we discuss the maneuvers used by HSV-1 and other herpesviruses to overcome TRIM protein-mediated virus restriction.

Aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) is a leading cause of primary aldosteronism (PA), a condition marked by excessive aldosterone secretion. CYP11B2, the aldosterone synthase, plays a critical role in aldosterone biosynthesis and the development of APA. Despite its significance, encoding regulatory mechanisms governing CYP11B2, particularly its degradation, remain poorly understood.

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most lethal malignant tumors that lacks effective treatment, and gemcitabine-based chemoresistance occurs frequently. Therefore, new therapeutic strategies for PC are urgently needed. Tripartite motif containing 59 (TRIM59) plays an important role in breast and lung cancer chemoresistance.

Zygotic genome activation occurs in two-cell (2C) embryos, and a 2C-like state is also activated in sporadic (~1%) naïve embryonic stem cells in mice. Elevated chromatin accessibility is critical for the 2C-like state to occur, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. Zscan4 exhibits burst expression in 2C embryos and 2C-like cells.

Objective: The aim of this study was to identify key parameters of a scoring system to be developed to predict the homozygous M694V genotype in patients clinically diagnosed with familial Mediterranean fever.

Methods: This study was a cross-sectional analysis of 472 pediatric familial Mediterranean fever patients with a homozygous genotype on exon 10, followed at our tertiary pediatric rheumatology clinic between June 2016 and June 2023. The patients were categorized into 2 groups based on their genotypes: group 1 comprised 402 patients (85.
