Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

An epithelial GPR35 isoform supports tumor‐associated transcriptional and metabolic phenotypes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
GPR35 generates two functionally distinct isoforms with previously unresolved roles. GPR35‐short mediates immune‐cell chemotaxis, while GPR35‐long is enriched in colorectal cancer epithelium, where it supports increased metabolism, proliferation, and tumor‐associated transcriptional programs.

Inhibition of cyclin‐dependent kinases 12/13 using CT7439 as a treatment for colorectal cancer with CDK12 upregulation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The proposed mechanism of action for the CDK12/13 inhibitor and cyclin K degrader, CT7439. CDK12/13 inhibition interrupts transcription elongation, leading to increased DNA damage that results in cell death. This agent is a potentially novel treatment option for patients with colorectal cancer. Created in BioRender. Cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) 12 and

Patch-to-Seq and Transcriptomic Analyses Yield Molecular Markers of Functionally Distinct Brainstem Serotonin Neurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Synaptic Neuroscience, 2022
Acute regulation of CO2 and pH homeostasis requires sensory feedback from peripheral (carotid body) and central (central) CO2/pH sensitive cells – so called respiratory chemoreceptors.

Preoperative circulating tumor cells integrated with imaging analysis for prognostic evaluation in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Detecting circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood before surgery may help predict outcomes in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Here, we show when combined with tumor size and lymph node involvement from routine imaging, CTC status identifies high‐risk patients with poorer survival—offering a simple, minimally invasive tool ...

A Phase 2 clinical trial of PF-05212377 (SAM-760) in subjects with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease with existing neuropsychiatric symptoms on a stable daily dose of donepezil

open access: yesAlzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2018
Background Symptomatic benefits have been reported for 5-HT6 receptor antagonists in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) trials. SAM-760 is a potent and selective 5-HT6 receptor antagonist that has demonstrated central 5-HT6 receptor saturation in humans at a dose ...

Somatostatin receptor 4 (SSTR4) is a tumor suppressor in cutaneous and head & neck squamous cell carcinomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

Role of 5-HT1A and 5-HT7 Receptors in Memory Regulation and the Importance of Their Coexpression: A Systematic Review

open access: yesBiomolecules
The 5-HT1A and 5-HT7 receptors play a key role in regulating cognitive processes and have been widely linked to the pathophysiology of depression, anxiety, and schizophrenia—disorders often associated with memory impairment.

IFN-γ inhibits 5-HT-induced melanin biosynthesis via downregulation of 5-HT receptors in vivo/in vitro

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2019
Hypopigmentation disorders, such as vitiligo, are difficult for treatment due to complicated pathogenesis, resulting from multiple factors including neural and immune elements. 5-HT and IFN-γ both play crucial roles in these skin diseases.
