Navigating the cholesterol maze: Key insights on use of statins in neurodegenerative disorders

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract encapsulates the dual neuroprotective mechanisms of statins in neurodegenerative diseases, highlighting both cholesterol‐dependent and cholesterol‐independent pathways. By inhibiting 3‐hydroxy‐3‐methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG‐CoA) reductase, statins reduce cholesterol synthesis, leading to altered lipid raft structures that ...

Brain Pericytes and Wnt/β‐Catenin Signaling Induce Functional Blood–Brain Barrier Phenotype in Human iPSC‐Derived Model

Small Methods, EarlyView.
This study shows that human iPSC‐derived endothelial cells acquire a functional blood–brain barrier phenotype when co‐cultured with brain pericytes and stimulated with CHIR‐99021, a Wnt/β‐catenin activator. This model recapitulates key barrier properties, inflammatory responses, and transcriptomic features of the native human BBB, offering new ...

Therapeutic Strategies to Overcome Payload Resistance of Trastuzumab Deruxtecan in HER2‐Positive Cancers

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
Overexpression of ABC transporters, especially ABCG2 and ABCB1, mediates acquired resistance to T‐DXd in HER2‐positive cancers. Inhibition of these transporters restored T‐DXd efficacy, highlighting efflux‐mediated resistance as a potential therapeutic target. ABSTRACT Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are emerging as a promising class of targeted cancer

Frequency estimation of disease-causing mutations in the Belgian population of some dog breeds, part 1 : shepherds [PDF]

, 2016
In light of improving breeding advice, the frequency was estimated for all the disease-causing mutations that were known at the start of the study and that are potentially relevant for a group of dog breeds, which are relatively popular or in which the ...

Pharmacological treatment with inhibitors of nuclear export enhances the antitumor activity of docetaxel in human prostate cancer [PDF]

, 2017
Background and aims: Docetaxel (DTX) modestly increases patient survival of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) due to insurgence of pharmacological resistance. Deregulation of Chromosome Region Maintenance (CRM-1)/ exportin-1 (XPO-1)-

A mini‐review of chronic suppression of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis in animals with P‐glycoprotein deficiency

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
This mini‐review describes the pathophysiology of the disrupted hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis in dogs, and probably cats, with the MDR1 (ABCB1) mutation, ABCB1‐1Δ in dogs and ABCB11930‐1931del TC in cats. Clinical consequences in affected animals are discussed and therapeutic interventions to consider are presented.

Diversification and expression of the PIN, AUX/LAX, and ABCB families of putative auxin transporters in \u3cem\u3ePopulus\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]

, 2012
Intercellular transport of the plant hormone auxin is mediated by three families of membrane-bound protein carriers, with the PIN and ABCB families coding primarily for efflux proteins and the AUX/LAX family coding for influx proteins. In the last decade

Arabidopsis ROOT UVB SENSITIVE2/WEAK AUXIN RESPONSE1 is required for polar auxin transport [PDF]

, 2010
Auxin is an essential phytohormone that regulates many aspects of plant development. To identify new genes that function in auxin signaling, we performed a genetic screen for Arabidopsis thaliana mutants with an alteration in the expression of the auxin ...

Functional Characterization of the Cat and Dog Wild‐Type and Mutant MDR1 Carrier Proteins and Frequency of the MDR1 Gene Mutation in 800 Cats From Germany

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ATP‐binding cassette transporter MDR1 P‐glycoprotein (syn. ABCB1) is an efflux carrier at the cell membrane that regulates drug absorption, distribution, and elimination. At the blood–brain barrier, MDR1 restricts brain entry of potentially neurotoxic drugs, such as ivermectin. In dogs and cats, MDR1 (syn.
