Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor necrosis factor alpha gene expression and the response to interferon in chronic hepatitis C

TL;DR: There is an enhanced expression of TNF-alpha in HCV infection and high levels of this cytokine may play a role in the resistance to interferon therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

N-terminal acetylome analyses and functional insights of the N-terminal acetyltransferase NatB

TL;DR: Overall, combining quantitative N-terminomics with yeast studies and knockdown of hNatB in human cell lines led to the unambiguous identification of 180 human and 110 yeast NatB substrates, Interestingly, these substrates included Met-Gln- N- termini, which are thus now classified as in vivo NatB substrateates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Upregulation of Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase in Hepatitis C Virus Infection

TL;DR: In infected chimpanzees, hepatic IDO expression decreased in animals that cured the infection, while it remained high in those that progressed to chronicity, and induction of IDO may dampen T-cell reactivity to viral antigens in chronic HCV infection.

N-terminal acetylome analyses and functional insights of the N-terminal acetyltransferase NatB

TL;DR: In this article, the evolutionary traits of NATB from yeast to human and demonstrate that ectopically expressed hNatB-Δ yeast strain partially complements the natBΔ phenotypes and partially restores the yNatB Nt-acetylome.
