City of Hope researchers develop new brain cancer therapy

Pharmaceutical Technology

For this approach, the team leveraged an oncolytic herpes simplex virus for releasing chemokines, which are signalling proteins that aid in attracting immune cells to tumours. These viruses are engineered genetically for killing cancer. The antibody is produced by the tumour cells infected by the oncolytic virus.

UNC team discovers interactions vital for hepatitis A virus replication

Pharmaceutical Technology

Researchers at the UNC School of Medicine have discovered that hepatitis A virus (HAV) replication needs particular interactions between the human protein ZCCHC14 and TENT4 poly(A) polymerases, a group of enzymes. In addition, the scientists later found that the HAV needs TENT4A/B for its replication.
