TL;DR: The MYC proto-oncogene encodes a transcription factor that has been implicated in the genesis of many human tumours and one of these genes encodes USP28, an ubiquitin-specific protease required for MYC stability in human tumour cells.
Abstract: The MYC proto-oncogene encodes a transcription factor that has been implicated in the genesis of many human tumours Here, we used a bar-code short hairpin RNA (shRNA) screen to identify multiple genes that are required for MYC function One of these genes encodes USP28, an ubiquitin-specific protease USP28 is required for MYC stability in human tumour cells USP28 binds to MYC through an interaction with FBW7alpha, an F-box protein that is part of an SCF-type ubiquitin ligase Therefore, it stabilizes MYC in the nucleus, but not in the nucleolus, where MYC is degraded by FBW7gamma High expression levels of USP28 are found in colon and breast carcinomas, and stabilization of MYC by USP28 is essential for tumour-cell proliferation

TL;DR: The updated taxonomy of the order Mononegavirales is presented as now accepted by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV).
Abstract: In 2016, the order Mononegavirales was emended through the addition of two new families (Mymonaviridae and Sunviridae), the elevation of the paramyxoviral subfamily Pneumovirinae to family status (Pneumoviridae), the addition of five free-floating genera (Anphevirus, Arlivirus, Chengtivirus, Crustavirus, and Wastrivirus), and several other changes at the genus and species levels. This article presents the updated taxonomy of the order Mononegavirales as now accepted by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses (ICTV).

TL;DR: Findings demonstrate that TNF-alpha synthesis in macrophages is up-regulated by cGMP and down- regulated by cAMP, which indicates that cyclic nucleotides act as intracellular messengers for extracellular signals of macrophage activation.
Abstract: PGE2 has previously been shown to suppress various leukocyte functions. In this study, we examined whether PGE2 would affect release of TNF-alpha from rat resident peritoneal macrophages. Two different, dose-dependent effects were observed: low PGE2 concentrations (0.1 to 10 ng/ml) stimulated, whereas higher concentrations (greater than 10 ng/ml) suppressed TNF-alpha release. PGE2-stimulated TNF-alpha production was dependent on de novo protein synthesis and was associated with an intracellular rise of cGMP. The importance of cGMP as an intracellular messenger for PGE2 was confirmed by the following evidence: (1) low PGE2 concentrations preferentially increased cGMP and not cAMP and (2) cGMP, either exogenously added or endogenously generated by sodium nitroprusside, were efficient stimulators of TNF-alpha production. In contrast, agents increasing intracellular cAMP concentrations such as PGE1, higher PGE2 doses, isoproterenol, and theophylline, all suppressed TNF-alpha synthesis. Only resident, but not casein-elicited or Corynebacterium parvum-activated macrophages, were stimulated by low PGE2 concentrations to increase TNF-alpha production. In tumor cytotoxicity assays, PGE2-activated macrophages were active only against TNF-alpha-sensitive target cells. These findings demonstrate that TNF-alpha synthesis in macrophages is up-regulated by cGMP and down-regulated by cAMP, which indicates that cyclic nucleotides act as intracellular messengers for extracellular signals of macrophage activation.
