KRASG12C inhibitors, like sotorasib and adagrasib, potently and selectively inhibit KRASG12C through a covalent interaction with the mutant cysteine, driving clinical efficacy in KRASG12C tumors. Since amino acid sequences of the three main RAS isoforms-KRAS, NRAS and HRAS-are highly similar, we hypothesized that some KRASG12C inhibitors might also target NRASG12C and/or HRASG12C, which are less common but critical oncogenic driver mutations in some tumors. While some inhibitors, like adagrasib, were highly selective for KRASG12C, others also potently inhibited NRASG12C and/or HRASG12C...

Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy is the new standard of care in fit patients with refractory or early relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). However, there may still be a role for salvage chemotherapy (ST) and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in certain circumstances (eg, lack of CAR-T resources, chemosensitive relapses, etc). We retrospectively studied 230 patients with refractory or early relapsed DLBCL who underwent ST and ASCT. Median line of ST was 1 (range 1-3). Best response before ASCT was complete response (CR) in 106 (46%) and partial response (PR) in 124 (54%) patients...

Poxviruses such as variola virus (smallpox) and monkeypox cause diseases in humans. Other poxviruses, including vaccinia and modified vaccinia Ankara, are used as vaccine vectors. Given their importance, a greater structural understanding of poxvirus virions is needed. We now performed cryo-electron tomography of purified intact vaccinia virions to study the structure of the palisade, a protein lattice that defines the viral core boundary. We identified the main viral proteins that form the palisade and their interaction surfaces and provided new insights into the organization of the viral core...

Abstract COVID-19 remains a major public health concern. Monoclonal antibodies have received emergency use authorization (EUA) for pre-exposure prophylaxis against COVID-19 among high-risk groups for treatment of mild to moderate COVID-19. In addition to recombinant biologics, engineered synthetic DNA-encoded antibodies (DMAb) are an important strategy for direct in vivo delivery of protective mAb. A DMAb cocktail was synthetically engineered to encode the immunoglobulin heavy and light chains of two different two different Fc-engineered anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies...

Epithelial cells are covered in carbohydrates (glycans). This glycan coat or "glycocalyx" interfaces directly with microbes, providing a protective barrier against potential pathogens. Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a condition associated with adverse health outcomes in which bacteria reside in direct proximity to the vaginal epithelium. Some of these bacteria, including Gardnerella , produce glycosyl hydrolase enzymes. However, glycans of the human vaginal epithelial surface have not been studied in detail. Here, we elucidate key characteristics of the "normal" vaginal epithelial glycan landscape and analyze the impact of resident microbes on the surface glycocalyx...

Outcomes are poor for patients with relapsed and/or refractory (R/R) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) post chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy. Two CD19-directed therapies, tafasitamab- cxix plus lenalidomide (tafa-len) and loncastuximab tesirine (loncaT) are approved in R/R LBCL. The efficacy of these CD19 directed therapies in patients who relapse after CD19 directed CAR-T (CD19-CART) therapy is not well understood. We conducted a multi-center study of patients with R/R LBCL that received either tafa-len or loncaT at any timepoint for R/R disease after CD19-CART therapy...

Anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CART) has revolutionized the outcomes of relapsed and/or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. However, CART is still limited by its availability, toxicity, and response durability. Not all patients make it to the CART infusion phase due to disease progression. Among those who receive CART, a significant number of patients experience life-threatening cytokine release syndrome toxicity, and less than half maintain a durable response with the majority relapsing in pre-existing sites of disease present pre-CART...

The molecular basis of reduced autofluorescence in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells relative to normal cells has been speculated to be due to lower levels of free flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). This speculation, along with differences in the intrinsic optical properties of extracellular collagen, lies at the foundation of the design of currently-used clinical optical detection devices. Here, we report that free FAD levels may not account for differences in autofluorescence of OSCC cells, but that the differences relate to FAD as a co-factor for flavination...
