Recent advances in CRISPR technology have also shown promise in addressing other kidney diseases like AKI, CKD, and DKD. CRISPR-Cas holds promise to edit genetic mutations underlying these conditions, potentially leading to more effective and long-lasting treatments. Furthermore, the adaptability of CRISPR-Cas systems allows for developing tailored therapeutic strategies that specifically target the genetic and molecular mechanisms contributing to different kidney diseases. Beyond DNA modifications, CRISPR-Cas technologies also enable editing noncoding RNA, such as lncRNAs and miRNAs, in kidney diseases.

Osmolyte - casein interplay is of particular interest as these osmolytes have been found to affect the conformational flexibility and functional properties of casein proteins and thus can affect their overall behavior in the cellular environment. The present chapter delves into this by discussing the unique structural and functional properties of casein IDPs and the influence of osmolytes on their structure, stability, and chaperone activity. Elucidation of the osmolyte effects on the structural-functional integrity of caseins should advance our understanding of the dynamics of protein structure and function in complex biological environments and also offer practical perceptions for their future applications.","PeriodicalId":49280,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science","volume":"211 ","pages":"17-38"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143415895","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The innate immune system, a multifaceted network encompassing pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) and effector cells, assumes a pivotal function in detecting and countering this viral assailant. Toll-like receptors (TLRs), situated on immune cell surfaces and within endosomes, play a central role in recognizing SARS-CoV-2. TLR-2 and TLR-4 discern specific viral constituents, such as the spike (S) protein, setting off inflammatory signaling cascades and catalyzing the generation of type I interferons. Intracellular PRRs, including the RIG-I-like receptors (RLRs), RIG-I and MDA5, detect viral RNA within the cytoplasm of infected cells, provoking antiviral responses by initiating the synthesis of type I interferons. The equilibrium between interferons and pro-inflammatory cytokines dictates the outcomes of the disease. Interferons play an indispensable role in governing viral replication, while unregulated cytokine production can result in tissue harm and inflammation. This intricate dynamic underpins therapeutic strategies aimed at regulating immune responses in individuals grappling with COVID-19. Natural killer (NK) cells, with their capacity to recognize infected cells through the \"missing self\" phenomenon and activating receptors, make significant contributions to the defense against SARS-CoV-2. NK cells play a pivotal role in eliminating infected cells and boosting immune responses through antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). In conclusion, comprehending the interplay among PRRs, interferons, and NK cells within innate immunity is paramount for discerning and combatting SARS-CoV-2. This comprehension illuminates therapeutic interventions and vaccine development, casting light on our endeavors to confront this worldwide health crisis.","PeriodicalId":49280,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science","volume":"213 ","pages":"31-71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144036567","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

T cells and virus-specific T lymphocytes are required to guard against viral infection, particularly COVID-19. Delayed immunological reconstitution (IR) and cytokine storm (CS) continue to be significant barriers to COVID-19 cure. While severe COVID-19 patients who survived the disease had considerable lymphopenia and increased neutrophils, especially in the elderly, their T cell numbers gradually recovered. Exhausted T lymphocytes and elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL6, IL10, IL2, and IL17, are observed in peripheral blood and the lungs. It implies that while convalescent plasma, IL-6 blocking, mesenchymal stem cells, and corticosteroids might decrease CS, Thymosin α1 and adaptive COVID-19-specific T cells could enhance IR.

In fact, the dysregulation of this process constitutes a scenario in the pathogenesis of several diseases, including non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes, and neurological disorders. NCDs represents a staggering ca. 75% of all deaths worldwide. Although traditional treatments have played a crucial role against NCDs, innovative therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. The modulation of regulated cell death (RCD) has emerged as a promising therapy because recent research has revealed different pathways capable of killing damaged cells with the activation of a cell-specific immune response for NCD types. Apoptosis, autophagy, pyroptosis, necroptosis, ferroptosis and cuproptosis are the main forms of RCD identified. The complexity of the mechanism and interconnectivity of the different RCD pathways have constituted the greatest challenges for applied analytical approaches, but the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning promotes an expectation to catalyze the understanding of cell death processes.

In certain contexts, genetically regulated cell death can enable surviving cells to thrive, safeguarding the genotype from extinction. Recent research on bacteria and archaea has revealed an ancient defense mechanism involving CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) and Cas (CRISPR-associated) proteins. These systems identify and eliminate invading genetic elements, such as bacteriophages, transposons, and plasmids, using sequence-specific RNA-guided targeting. A protease complex called Craspase, activated by non-self RNA, regulates Cas nuclease activity, facilitating this primitive form of immunity. Interestingly, this pathway shows structural and mechanistic similarities to apoptosis, the first recognized form of programmed mammalian cell death, characterized by chromatin condensation, nuclear fragmentation, and membrane blebbing. Other regulated cell death pathways, including necroptosis and pyroptosis, also share overlapping features. Comparative genomic studies reveal a conserved molecular framework underpinning these diverse death pathways across life forms.

In cancer, the regulation of RCD is disrupted to allow tumor cells to resist apoptosis, modify their function to survive microenvironmental stresses, and become resistant to standard therapies. Beyond apoptosis, new modalities of RCD including necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and parthanatos, play multifaceted roles in tumor suppression and progression, determined by interactions with the tumor microenvironment (TME). These RCD pathways possess unique molecular regulators and exhibit distinctive immunological and pathological connotations with novel therapeutic potential. Here, in the current study, the mechanistic complexity of RCD pathways and their interactions with the TME, particularly in their immune evasion, tumor progression and therapy resistance roles, are reviewed. Furthermore, the therapeutic potential of the modulation of RCD pathways by using small-molecule inhibitors, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and combination therapies that repurpose the TME, were tested. The newly emerging technologies, such as nanotechnology and biomimetic delivery systems, are proposed to deliver novel solutions to escalating the specificity and potency of RCD-targeted therapy and confronting systemic toxicity as well as adaptive resistance.
