- Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is an important complication in elderly patients with cancer, yet traditional clinical scoring systems insufficiently capture its molecular heterogeneity. This study aimed to construct a VTE-related molecular risk stratification framework for elderly cancer patients, identify molecular features that remain stable across datasets, and clarify the potential inflammation-coagulation interaction mechanisms underlying high-risk states. - Source: PubMed

Li LinenZhu HuilingCao KunChen Hao - The P-TEFb transcriptional kinase complex regulates the pause release checkpoint step in transcription by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII). We sought to identify hypoxia-specific interactions that could direct P-TEFb activity to hypoxia-responsive genes. Using a biochemical purification approach, we discovered a hypoxia-specific, chromatin-associated interaction between the P-TEFb subunit cyclin T1 (CCNT1), nuclear localized mitochondrial chaperone Tim8-Tim13 complexes, and the hypoxia-inducible, DNA binding transcription factor BHLHE40. This interaction is confirmed across multiple human cell lines. Tim8-Tim13 complex disruption and BHLHE40 silencing both impair the transcriptional response to acute hypoxia. HIF is not involved in the CCNT1/BHLHE40/Tim8-Tim13 interaction, and neither genetic HIF-1β knockout nor pharmacological HIF-2α inhibition (belzutifan) eliminates BHLHE40 expression. Finally, BHLHE40 depletion compromises the proliferation of 786-O clear cell renal carcinoma cells, which constitutively express HIF-2α and hypoxia-responsive genes. Together, these findings reveal a partially HIF-independent regulatory axis, in which Tim8-Tim13 complexes and BHLHE40 modulate P-TEFb activity in the transcriptional response to hypoxia. - Source: PubMed

P-TEFb activity drives release of RNA polymerase II from promoter-proximal pausing for eukaryotic and HIV-1 transcription. The molecular mechanism by which 7SK binding overcomes an intrinsic Hexim autoinhibition for subsequent P-TEFb inactivation has remained unresolved. Here, using NMR and biophysical methods we demonstrate that Hexim1 homodimer engages two high-affinity sites on 7SK RNA. This dual-site binding triggers a conformational rearrangement in Hexim1's disordered central region that unmasks the Cdk9-binding site, which is otherwise sequestered within an inter-monomer dimer interface. These findings reveal how Hexim autoinhibition dictates its specificity for 7SK RNA and prevents premature P-TEFb inhibition in the absence of 7SK, thereby providing a mechanistic understanding of Hexim/P-TEFb assembly into the 7SK RNP and further considerations for understanding Hexim-Tat competition during viral transcription. - Source: PubMed

Yang YuanMurrali Maria GraziaGalvan SabrinaWang YaqiangStephen ChristineAjjampore NehaWang XiaoyuFeigon Juli - Activated immune cells are highly susceptible to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Vitamin D (VitD) induces antimicrobial responses and reduces cellular activation. We investigated VitD effects on HIV-1 replication, glucose uptake, and gene regulation using computational and in vitro approaches. CD4 T cells from healthy male donors were treated with VitD and infected with HIV-1. After 72 h, p24 protein was measured to assess viral replication. VitD effects on anti- and pro-HIV genes were analyzed by a Boolean network model based on curated databases and the literature. CCR5 and CXCR4 coreceptor expression, AKT phosphorylation, and glucose uptake were evaluated by flow cytometry, and expression of some model-identified genes was quantified by qPCR. VitD reduced p24 by 53.2% ( = 0.0078). Boolean network modeling predicted that VitD upregulates antiviral, migration, and cell-differentiation related genes, while downregulating genes related to cellular activation, proliferation, glucose metabolism, and HIV replication, notably and . In vitro, VitD reduced AKT phosphorylation by 26.6% ( = 0.0156), transcription of by 22.7% ( = 0.0391), and glucose uptake by 22.8% ( = 0.0039) without affecting classic antiviral genes or coreceptor expression. These findings suggest an anti-HIV effect of VitD, mediated through AKT and glucose metabolism downmodulation, both involved in cell activation and HIV-1 replication. - Source: PubMed
