Article Abstract

The immunophenotype of bladder cancer plays a pivotal role in the prognosis of cancer, but the effect of different epigenetic factors on different immunophenotypes in bladder tumours remains unclear. This study used multi-omics data analysis to provide molecular basis support for different immune phenotypes. Unsupervised cluster analysis revealed distinct subclusters with higher (subcluster B2) or lower cytotoxic immune phenotypes (subcluster A1) related to PD-L1 and IFNG expression. Mutational landscape analyses showed that the mutation level of TP53 in subcluster B1 was highest than other subclusters, and subcluster B1 had a lower frequency of concurrent mutation than subcluster A2. A total of 2364 differentially expressed genes were identified between subclusters A2 and B1, and the main functions of the up-regulated genes in subcluster B1 were enriched in the activation of T cells and other related pathways. We found that STAT1 was a key gene in a gene regulatory network related to immune phenotypes in bladder cancer. Finally, we constructed a prognostic prediction model by LASSO Cox regression which could distinguish high-risk and low-risk cases significantly. In conclusion, the present study addressed a field synopsis between genetic and epigenetic events in immune phenotypes of bladder cancer.

Mechanisms and treatment of cancer therapy-induced peripheral and central neurotoxicity.

Nat Rev Cancer

Neurotoxicity is a common and potentially severe adverse effect from conventional and novel cancer therapy. The mechanisms that underlie clinical symptoms of central and peripheral nervous system injury remain incompletely understood. For conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy or radiotherapy, direct toxicities to brain structures and neurovascular damage may result in myelin degradation and impaired neurogenesis, which eventually translates into delayed neurodegeneration accompanied by cognitive symptoms.

CD4 T follicular helper (T) cells support tailored B cell responses against multiple classes of pathogens. To reveal how diverse T phenotypes are established, we profiled mouse T cells in response to viral, helminth and bacterial infection. We identified a core T signature that is distinct from CD4 T follicular regulatory and effector cells and identified pathogen-specific transcriptional modules that shape T function.

Manipulating Zika virus RNA tertiary structure for developing tissue-specific attenuated vaccines.

Traditional live attenuated vaccines (LAVs) are typically developed through serial passaging or genetic engineering to introduce specific mutations or deletions. While viral RNA secondary or tertiary structures have been well-documented for their multiple functions, including binding with specific host proteins, their potential for LAV design remains largely unexplored. Herein, using Zika virus (ZIKV) as a model, we demonstrate that targeted disruption of the primary sequence or tertiary structure of a specific viral RNA element responsible for Musashi-1 (MSI1) binding leads to a tissue-specific attenuation phenotype in multiple animal models.

The purpose of this study was to investigate how Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) signaling regulates glial phenotype, neuroprotection, and reprogramming of Müller glia (MG) into neurogenic MG-derived progenitor cells (MGPCs) in the adult male and female mouse retina. We found that S1P-related genes were dynamically regulated following retinal damage. (S1P receptor 1) and (sphingosine kinase 1) are expressed at low levels by resting MG and are rapidly upregulated following acute damage.
