Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Cancer Trends: Cervical cancer

open access: yes, 2017
In the period 2013-2015, invasive cancer of the cervix uteri (ICD10: C53) accounted for just over 1% of all invasive cancers (excluding non-melanoma skin cancer) in Ireland, with an average of 262 cases diagnosed per year.

Patient-specific cancer genes contribute to recurrently perturbed pathways and establish therapeutic vulnerabilities in esophageal adenocarcinoma

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Identifying driver genes in unstable, heterogenous tumour types can be challenging. Here, Mourikis, Benedetti, Foxall and colleagues present a machine learning algorithm to tackle this problem in esophageal adenocarcinoma.

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Dissecting regulated cell death states and transformation mechanisms in the evolutionary trajectory of 30 cancers

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Cancer is a heterogeneous disease driven by dysregulated cell death, which influences tumor progression and treatment responses. It is important to construct a systematic landscape that characterizes the dysregulation of regulated cell death ...

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Cancer Trends: Cancer of the liver and biliary tract

open access: yes, 2010
Liver cancer consists of two main types—hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) which accounts for about 60% of cases, and intrahepatic bile duct cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), which accounts for about 20%. The liver is one of the less common cancer sites, about 0.

Human tissue in systems medicine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Histopathology, the examination of an architecturally artefactual, two dimensional, static image remains a potent tool allowing diagnosis and empirical expectation of prognosis.

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses
