Annexin-V stabilizes membrane defects by inducing lipid phase transition

Nature Communications, 2020
Annexins are cytoplasmic proteins, which bind to membranes exposing negatively charged phospholipids in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Here the authors use high-speed atomic force microscopy and other techniques to show that annexin-V self-assembles into ...

CD4+ Tregs Drive Post‐Ischemic Sprouting Angiogenesis via Endothelial YY1/MAML1 Reactivation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microvascular complications of diabetes are chronic diseases of small vessels. We previously found that CD4+ regulatory T‐cells (Tregs) are markedly reduced in type 2 diabetes (T2D) after ischemic injury in both mice and humans, and that Treg deficiency in immunodeficient mice impairs vascular regeneration.

Role of the Annexin A protein family in liver diseases: insights and therapeutic opportunities

Frontiers in Pharmacology
The Annexin (ANXA) protein family, which is ubiquitously expressed across various tissues, encodes versatile calcium (Ca2+)- and phospholipid-binding proteins that play crucial roles in modulating inflammation and cell signaling pathways.

[Annexins in mitochondria].

Postepy biochemii, 2016
Annexins form a family of membrane- and calcium-binding proteins, widely distributed in vertebrates. Their interactions with membranes are regulated by changes of intracellular concentration of calcium ([Ca2+]in.), pH, and the presence of negatively charged phospholipids as well as cholesterol in membranes.

Annexin 2-mediated enhancement of cytomegalovirus infection opposes inhibition by annexin 1 or annexin 5

Journal of General Virology, 2007
Biochemical studies have suggested that annexin 2 (A2) may participate in cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. In the current work, effects of A2 monomer (p36) and heterotetramer (A2t; p362p112) were investigated. Demonstrating a role for endogenous A2, the four stages of infection that were followed were each inhibited by anti-p36 or anti-p11 at 37 °C ...

Chemoproteomic Identification of AKT2 as a Paclitaxel‐Binding Protein via C─C Bond‐Linked Probe PTX‐4 in Paclitaxel‐Resistant Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Breast cancer remains one of the most prevalent malignancies among women, and taxane‐based chemotherapies such as paclitaxel and docetaxel are central to standard treatment regimens. However, drug resistance in breast cancer limits therapeutic efficacy and contributes to recurrence and metastasis.

TSPYL5 Promotes Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Metastasis by Antagonizing USP10‐Mediated PTEN Stabilization to Unleash a ZEB1‐Dependent EMT Program

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The hyperactivation of PI3K/AKT signaling in PTEN wild‐type triple‐negative breast cancer represents a clinical paradox. We delineate a novel post‐translational regulatory axis wherein the oncogene TSPYL5 competitively antagonizes the deubiquitinase USP10.

Synthetic Toll‐Like Receptors for Control of Innate Immunity With Far‐Red Light

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Synthetic Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) are engineered by replacing their natural sensing regions with a far‐red‐light‐responsive module from a bacterial phytochrome. These synthetic receptors enable light‐controlled regulation of immune signaling in mammalian cells.

β‐Elemene Rescues Radiation‐Induced Enteritis by Orchestrating a Host‐Microbiome Circuit That Fuels Epigenetic DNA Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates that β‐elemene promotes cellular uptake of L. gasseri‐derived lactate by enhancing the membrane translocation of MCT1 in a CD147‐dependent manner. Intracellular lactate, through the lactylation of RBBP4 at the K26 site, recruits EP300 to the promoter regions of downstream genes (POLD1/POLD3), catalyzing H3K27ac modification.
