The incidence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is increasing with age. DNA fragments known to accumulate in certain autoimmune diseases, but the mechanistic relationship among ageing, and RA pathogenesis remain unexplored. Here we show that accumulation fragments, age regulated by exonuclease TREX1, promotes abnormal activation immune system an adjuvant-induced (AIA) rat model. Local overexpression TREX1 suppresses synovial inflammation rats, while conditional genomic deletion AIA rats result...

Alterations in histone modification have been linked to cancer development and progression. Celastrol, a Chinese herbal compound, shows potent anti-tumor effects through multiple signaling pathways. However, the involvement of modifications this process has not yet illustrated. In study, barcode sequencing eukaryotic genome-wide deletion library revealed that modifications, especially acetylation associated with NuA4 acetyltransferase complex, were involved anti-proliferation actions...

Blockade of immune checkpoints as a strategy cancer cells to overcome the response has received ample attention in research recently. In particular, expression PD-L1 by various become paradigm this respect. Delivery its site action occurs either local diffusion, or else transport via small extracellular vesicles (sEVs, commonly referred exosomes). Many steps sEVs formation, their packaging with and release into space have been studied detail. The likely dependence on Ca2+ -signaling,...

Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs), carrying PD-L1, have been implicated in immune evasion and tumor progression. However, understanding how PD-L1 sEVs are secreted still needs to be improved. We found that the secretion dynamics of is similar other sEVs. Intracellular calcium associated downstream PKC signaling plays pivotal roles releasing non-small cell lung cancer cells (NSCLC). Particularly, we observed knocking down PKCα has profound impacts on secretion, especially resting state...

Drug resistance is becoming an obstacle in anti-cancer therapies. For target-based therapy of lung cancer, gefitinib, as the first generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), demonstrated good initial response to non-small cell cancer (NSCLC) patients whom harbors epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation. However, within one year, additional EGFR mutation occurred, leading eventual gefitinib-resistance. Therefore, it urgently discover novel effective small molecule for those...

The survival time of patients with leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) lung cancer is very short, and the clinical characteristics LM are varied, making diagnosis difficult. At present, a positive CSF fluid (CSF) cytology result remains gold standard for diagnosing in cancer; however, process collecting traumatic far less convenient than blood collection. With development technology, an increasing number studies prefer to use liquid biopsy diagnose or predict occurrence disease. Therefore, we...
