Autophagy in Tumor Immunity and Viral-Based Immunotherapeutic Approaches in Cancer
Autophagy is a fundamental catabolic process essential for the maintenance of cellular and tissue homeostasis, as well as directly contributing to the control of invading pathogens.

A better understanding of multiple myeloma (MM) biology has led to the development of novel therapies. However, MM is still an incurable disease and new pharmacological strategies are needed. Dinaciclib, a multiple cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor,

Regulated IRE1α-dependent decay (RIDD)-mediated reprograming of lipid metabolism in cancer
IRE1α cleaves several mRNAs upon accumulation of misfolded proteins. Here the authors show that active IRE1α cleaves DGAT2 mRNA encoding the rate-limiting enzyme in the synthesis of triacylglycerols, suggesting a role of IRE1α in reprogramming lipid ...

Immunogenic cell death (ICD) has been proposed to be a crucial process for antitumor immunosurveillance. ICD is characterized by the exposure and emission of Damage Associated Molecular Patterns (DAMP), including calreticulin (CRT).

Combined proteomics and CRISPR‒Cas9 screens in PDX identify ADAM10 as essential for leukemia in vivo
Background Acute leukemias represent deadly malignancies that require better treatment. As a challenge, treatment is counteracted by a microenvironment protecting dormant leukemia stem cells. Methods To identify responsible surface proteins, we performed

Bim and Bmf synergize to induce apoptosis in Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection [PDF]
: Bcl-2 family proteins including the pro-apoptotic BH3-only proteins are central regulators of apoptotic cell death. Here we show by a focused siRNA miniscreen that the synergistic action of the BH3-only proteins Bim and Bmf is required for apoptosis ...

A cardinal role for cathepsin D in co-ordinating the host-mediated apoptosis of macrophages and killing of pneumococci [PDF]
The bactericidal function of macrophages against pneumococci is enhanced by their apoptotic demise, which is controlled by the anti-apoptotic protein Mcl-1.
