Article Abstract
More than 40 years into the pandemic, HIV remains a global burden and as of now, there is no cure in sight. Fortunately, highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has been developed to manage and suppress HIV infection. Combinations of two to three drugs targeting key viral proteins, including compounds inhibiting HIV reverse transcriptase (RT), have become the cornerstone of HIV treatment. This review discusses nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), including chain terminators, delayed chain terminators, nucleoside reverse transcriptase translocation inhibitors (NRTTIs), and nucleotide competing RT inhibitors (NcRTIs); focusing on their history, mechanism of action, resistance, and current clinical application, including long-acting regimens.

Background: Metabolic reprogramming is an important hallmark of cervical cancer (CC), and extensive studies have provided important information for translational and clinical oncology. Here we sought to determine metabolic association with molecular aberrations, telomere maintenance and outcomes in CC.
Methods: RNA sequencing data from TCGA cohort of CC was analyzed for their metabolic gene expression profile and consensus clustering was then performed to classify tumors into different groups/subtypes.

Polyploidy, a conserved mechanism involved in normal development and tissue homeostasis, plays a paradoxical role in cancer by facilitating both tumor progression and therapeutic vulnerability. Although polyploidization may confer survival advantages to cancer cells, its controlled induction could represent an effective anticancer strategy. Aurora B kinase, a critical regulator of mitosis, plays a pivotal role in ensuring chromosomal integrity and preventing polyploidy.

Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs) are enzymes catalyzing the post-translational addition of chains of ADP-ribose moieties to proteins. In most eukaryotic cells, their primary protein targets are involved in DNA recombination, repair, and chromosome maintenance. Even though this group of enzymes is quite common in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes, no PARP homologs have been described so far in ascomycetous yeasts, leaving their potential roles in this group of organisms unexplored.

Built environment surveillance has shown promise for monitoring COVID-19 burden at granular geographic scales, but its utility for surveillance across larger areas and populations is unknown. Our study aims to evaluate the role of built environment detection of SARS-CoV-2 for the surveillance of COVID-19 across broad geographies and populations. We conducted a prospective city-wide sampling study to examine the relationship between SARS-CoV-2 on floors and COVID-19 burden.
