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.

Autophagy Induction via STING Trafficking Is a Primordial Function of the cGAS Pathway

Nature, 2019
Cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) synthase (cGAS) detects infections or tissue damage by binding to microbial or self DNA in the cytoplasm1. Upon binding DNA, cGAS produces cGAMP that binds to and activates the adaptor protein STING, which then activates the ...

A synthetic benzoxazine dimer derivative targets c‐Myc to inhibit colorectal cancer progression

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Benzoxazine dimer derivatives bind to the bHLH‐LZ region of c‐Myc, disrupting c‐Myc/MAX complexes, which are evaluated from SAR analysis. This increases ubiquitination and reduces cellular c‐Myc. Impairing DNA repair mechanisms is shown through proteomic analysis.

Relationship between time to clinical remission and relapse in adults with steroid-sensitive minimal change disease: a retrospective cohort study

Annals of Medicine
Objective Minimal change disease (MCD) is a common nephrotic syndrome that is usually steroid-sensitive and has high relapse rate. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between time to clinical remission and recurrence after the ...

Patient‐specific pharmacogenomics demonstrates xCT as predictive therapeutic target in colon cancer with possible implications in tumor connectivity

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates transcriptomic profiling of matched tumor and healthy tissues from 32 colorectal cancer patients with functional validation in patient‐derived organoids, revealing dysregulated metabolic programs driven by overexpressed xCT (SLC7A11) and SLC3A2, identifying an oncogenic cystine/glutamate transporter signature linked to ...

Exploring the role of gut microbiota modulation in the long-term therapeutic benefits of early MSC transplantation in MRL/lpr mice

Cellular & Molecular Biology Letters
Background Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), influenced by gut microbiota dysbiosis, is characterized by autoimmune and inflammatory responses. Human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell (hUC-MSC) transplantation is an effective and safe ...

Characterization of WAC interactions with R2TP and TTT chaperone complexes linking glucose and glutamine availability to mTORC1 activity

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TTT and R2TP chaperone complexes are required for the assembly and activation of mTORC1. WAC directly interacts with components of TTT, R2TP, and mTORC1, and these interactions are affected by the availability of glucose and glutamine, correlating with changes in mTORC1 activity.
