MITF maintains genome stability in nonmelanocyte lineages

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
MITF is essential for melanocyte survival and acts as an oncogene in 10%–20% of melanomas. We show that MITF depletion causes genome instability in nonmelanocytic cells, leading to LATS2‐mediated P53 activation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. This study highlights the role of MITF as a genome maintenance factor beyond the melanocyte lineage. Created

Oncogenic DMTF1β promotes cancer cell motility by regulating autophagy through ULK1 stabilization

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the current study, we demonstrate that the oncogene DMTF1β regulates ULK1 stability by reducing its proteasomal degradation in cancer cells. This stabilization enables ULK1 to induce autophagy, which in turn facilitates cancer cell migration. Consequently, reduced DMTF1β levels lead to decreased autophagy and impaired cancer cell migration.

Multiphase-based predictive framework construction of abrasive wear performance in C–V–Cr–Mo alloys

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology
Abrasive wear persists as the dominant failure mechanism in crushing equipment, driving the demand for predictive models to guide wear-resistant alloy design and equipment lifespan assessment.

Epigenetic silencing of the liver‐specific lncRNA LUNAR promotes liver cancer progression via NOTCH activation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...

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 (↑).

A study of the wear process related to twin-screw extruders [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Extruders are used in a wide range of process industries and high reliability is essential if cost effective manufacturing is to be maintained. A critical part of twin-screw extruders is the barrel that must withstand many different wear and corrosion ...

Effect of aging temperature on microstructure and properties of maraging steel for ultra-low temperature

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology
An 18Ni(200) maraging steel ingot was prepared using vacuum smelting, and after undergoing forging and two solution treatments at 1000 °C + 800 °C, the effect of aging treatment at 350–600 °C on the evolution of the microstructure and mechanical ...

Mass Distribution of Particulate Matter Produced During Abrasion af Asphalt Mixtures in Laboratory

open access: yesCommunications, 2016
Non-exhaust emissions of particulate matter from road traffic can come from abrasion of vehicle parts (tyres, brake linings, clutch and bodywork) or from pavement surface abrasion and also from resuspension of dust. A differentiation between PM emissions

Paclitaxel induces NM2‐dependent cellular contraction through GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and RhoA/ROCK activation in cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Taxanes are widely used chemotherapeutics whose effects on cellular mechanics remain poorly understood. We show that paclitaxel induces rapid cellular contraction by promoting GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and non‐muscle myosin II activation through RhoA/ROCK.
