Expression of Bcl-2 Family Member Bid in Normal and Malignant Tissues

Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2002
Bid is the only known Bcl-2 family member that can function as an agonist of proapoptotic Bcl-2-related proteins such as Bax and Bak. Expression of the proapoptotic Bcl-2 family protein Bid was assessed by immunoblotting and immunohistochemical methods ...

Identification of novel genes involved in apoptosis of HIV-infected macrophages using unbiased genome-wide screening

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2021
Background Macrophages, besides resting latently infected CD4+ T cells, constitute the predominant stable, major non-T cell HIV reservoirs. Therefore, it is essential to eliminate both latently infected CD4+ T cells and tissue macrophages to completely ...

YAP1::TFE3 mediates endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal plasticity in epithelioid hemangioendothelioma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The YAP1::TFE3 fusion protein drives endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndMT) plasticity, resulting in the loss of endothelial characteristics and gain of mesenchymal‐like properties, including resistance to anoikis, increased migratory capacity, and loss of contact growth inhibition in endothelial cells.

Modeling hepatic fibrosis in TP53 knockout iPSC‐derived human liver organoids

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study developed iPSC‐derived human liver organoids with TP53 gene knockout to model human liver fibrosis. These organoids showed elevated myofibroblast activation, early disease markers, and advanced fibrotic hallmarks. The use of profibrotic differentiation medium further amplified the fibrotic signature seen in the organoids.

Recent progress in the discovery of small molecules for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2013
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder with few therapeutic options. While several gene mutations have been implicated in ALS, the exact cause of neuronal dysfunction is unknown and motor neurons of affected individuals

PYCR1 inhibition in bone marrow stromal cells enhances bortezomib sensitivity in multiple myeloma cells by altering their metabolism

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study investigated how PYCR1 inhibition in bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) indirectly affects multiple myeloma (MM) cell metabolism and viability. Culturing MM cells in conditioned medium from PYCR1‐silenced BMSCs impaired oxidative phosphorylation and increased sensitivity to bortezomib.

NK92 cells stably transfected with CD16 are efficient against multiple myeloma cells ex vivo and in vivo, especially if combined with daratumumab

OncoImmunology
Adoptive cell therapy and the use of monoclonal antibodies are two therapeutic modalities implemented in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). In this study, we combined the anti-CD38 therapeutic mAb daratumumab with different types of NK cells ...

Meru couples planar cell polarity with apical-basal polarity during asymmetric cell division

eLife, 2017
Polarity is a shared feature of most cells. In epithelia, apical-basal polarity often coexists, and sometimes intersects with planar cell polarity (PCP), which orients cells in the epithelial plane. From a limited set of core building blocks (e.g.

Notch3 regulates Mybl2 via HeyL to limit proliferation and tumor initiation in breast cancer

Cell Death and Disease, 2023
Notch signaling is a conserved signaling pathway that participates in many aspects of mammary gland development and homeostasis, and has extensively been associated with breast tumorigenesis.

Inhibition of CDK9 enhances AML cell death induced by combined venetoclax and azacitidine

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The CDK9 inhibitor AZD4573 downregulates c‐MYC and MCL‐1 to induce death of cytarabine (AraC)‐resistant AML cells. This enhances VEN + AZA‐induced cell death significantly more than any combination of two of the three drugs in AraC‐resistant AML cells.
