Saturated Transposon Analysis in Yeast as a one-step method to quantify the fitness effects of gene disruptions on a genome-wide scale. by Enzo Kingma, Floor Dolsma, Leila Iñigo de la Cruz, Liedewij Laan

“…For example, TIS has been used to identify essential genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, screen for antibiotic resistance genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae and determine the set of genes required for virulence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. While providing valuable insights, these applications of TIS focus on (conditional) gene essentiality and neglect possibly interesting but subtle differences in the importance of genes for fitness. …”

Protein tyrosine phosphatase delta is a STAT3-phosphatase and suppressor of metabolic liver disease by Thomas F Baumert, Charlotte Bach, Patrick Pessaux, Catherine Schuster, Frank Jühling, Sarah C Durand, Yujin Hoshida, Fabien Zoulim, Atish Mukherji, Naoto Fujiwara, Marine A Oudot, Armando Andres Roca Suarez, Michel L Tremblay, Barbara Testoni, Joachim Lupberger, Romain Parent, Laurent Mailly, Nassim Dali-Youcef, Emanuele Felli, Maria Saez-Palma, Julien Moehlin, Alessia Virzì, Nicolas Brignon, Eugenie Schaeffer, Romain Martin, Laura Meiss-Heydmann, Zakaria Boulahtouf, Lea Girard, Emma Osswald, Carole Jamey, Daniel Brumaru, Bhuvaneswari Koneru

“…Objective Impaired hepatic expression of protein tyrosine phosphatase delta (PTPRD) is associated with increased STAT3 transcriptional activity and reduced survival from hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection. However, the PTPRD-expressing hepatic cell types, signalling pathways responsive to PTPRD and their role in non-viral liver disease are largely unknown.Methods We studied PTPRD expression in single-cell and bulk liver transcriptomic data from mice and humans, and established a Ptprd-deficient mouse model for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). …”

Telaprevir in treatment of chronic hepatitis C: safety issues by T. M. Ignatova

“…Investigations carried out to the present time demonstrated, that addition of telaprevir to standard therapy by pegilated interferon-alpha and ribavirin increases frequency of achievement sustained virologic response in CHC patients with the 1 genotype of virus almost 2-fold. Tolerability of treatment with addition of telaprevir was satisfactory as a whole; however frequency of skin rashes and pruritus (over 50%), anemia (about 40%) and anorectal symptoms (26%) was higher, than at standard double therapy (placebo group). …”
