Genomics Proteomics Bioinformatics

September 2024

Innovation Center for Diagnostics and Treatment of Thalassemia, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Platelets are key indicators of blood clotting issues like hypercoagulability, and their traits are influenced by multiple genes; however, little is known about how these traits vary in β-thalassemia patients.
  • A study analyzed platelet count and mean platelet volume in 1020 β-thalassemia patients and used whole genome sequencing to find genetic variants associated with these traits.
  • The research revealed significant variability in platelet traits among the patients and identified new genetic links, suggesting specific targets for future treatments or interventions related to platelet disorders in β-thalassemia.

Due to overactive inflammation and hindered angiogenesis, self-healing of diabetic wounds (DW) remains challenging in the clinic. Platelet-derived exosomes (PLT-Exos), a novel exosome capable of anti-inflammation and pro-angiogenesis, show great potential in DW treatment. However, previous administration of exosomes into skin wounds is topical daub or intradermal injection, which cannot intradermally deliver PLT-Exos into the dermis layer, thus impeding its long-term efficacy in anti-inflammation and pro-angiogenesis.

Gram-negative species are facultative intracellular bacteria that can survive in the harsh intracellular milieu of host cells. They have evolved strategies to evade detection and degradation by the host immune system, which ensures their proliferation in the host. Following infection, alters the initial immunogenic surface-exposed proteins to evade immune recognition via antigen or phase variation.

Achilles' Heel of currently approved immune checkpoint inhibitors: immune related adverse events.

Front Immunol

February 2024

Department of Pharmacy, Hunan Cancer Hospital, The Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Xiangya School of Medicine, Central South University, Changsha, China.

Article Synopsis
  • Immunotherapy, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), has advanced cancer treatment but also led to increased immune-related adverse events (irAEs).
  • Common side effects of irAEs include skin issues, hormone problems, digestive issues, and liver damage, while severe cases can result in life-threatening conditions affecting the nervous, heart, and lung systems.
  • Effective management of irAEs requires careful monitoring and may involve glucocorticoid treatment, with the potential need to halt ICI therapy; a multidisciplinary approach is essential for addressing the diverse impacts of these events.

A photocontrolled one-pot isothermal amplification and CRISPR-Cas12a assay for rapid detection of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variants.

Microbiol Spectr

March 2024

Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Tropical Disease Research, Department of Epidemiology, School of Public Health, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China.

CRISPR-Cas technology has widely been applied to detect single-nucleotide mutation and is considered as the next generation of molecular diagnostics. We previously reported the combination of nucleic acid amplification (NAA) and CRISPR-Cas12a system to distinguish major severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants. However, the mixture of NAA and CRISPR-Cas12a reagents in one tube could interfere with the efficiency of NAA and CRISPR-Cas12a cleavage, which in turn affects the detection sensitivity.
