Control of stress-activated Cdc42 dynamics by the MAP kinase Sty1—NDR kinase Orb6 regulatory axis

iScience
Summary: Cdc42 is a Rho-family GTPase that controls cell polarization from yeast to human cells. In fission yeast, under normal growth conditions, Cdc42-GTP oscillates between cell tips to promote polarized growth.

Understanding extracellular vesicle biology, isolation, and characterization: The theory of EV‐erything

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs), especially exosomes, are nanoparticles increasingly recognized as key regulators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological aspects. Despite rapid progress, inconsistencies in nomenclature, isolation, and characterization continue to restrict translational advancement.

Excessive training does not induce mitochondrial dysfunction or impair insulin signalling within skeletal muscle

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Three weeks of overtraining in trained endurance athletes reduced exercise performance without impairing glucose tolerance. In skeletal muscle, overtraining was associated with increased expression of lipid metabolism‐related proteins, enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis and preserved insulin signalling, despite elevated oxidative ...

Hypoxia and the cytoskeleton

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic outlining the activation of hypoxia‐sensitive pathways, the influence of hypoxia and associated pathways on the cytoskeleton, and the impact of these on disease progression. Abstract A highly‐regulated and dynamic cytoskeleton is vital for functional cellular physiology and the maintenance of homeostasis.

miR-29a Negatively Affects Glucose-Stimulated Insulin Secretion and MIN6 Cell Proliferation via Cdc42/β-Catenin Signaling

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2019
Background. Diabetes is a progressive metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia. Functional impairment of islet β cells can occur to varying degrees.

Trafficking and potentiation of Nav1.7 and Nav1.8 channels are mediated by IQGAP1

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend IQGAP1 binds to the voltage‐gated Nav1.7 and Nav1.8 channels and TRPA1 channels in sensory neurons. Inflammatory mediators (IM), including PGE2 and TNFα, released during nerve injury and inflammation activate intracellular signalling messengers such as PKA, p38 MAPK and Cdc42 through their respective receptors.

Mutation in CDC42 Gene Set as a Response Biomarker for Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy

Cancer Medicine
Background Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have achieved great success; however, a subset of patients exhibits no response. Consequently, there is a critical need for reliable predictive biomarkers.

Peripheral regeneration of Aβ low‐threshold mechanoreceptors is limited despite activation of regenerative transcriptional pathways

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The regeneration of Aβ low‐threshold mechanoreceptors (Aβ‐LTMRs), sensory neurons responsible for discriminative touch, has not previously been explored. Here, we took advantage of the selective expression of Calb1 in Aβ‐LTMRs to generate two genetic mouse models for studying their regenerative response after nerve injury.

Mechanisms and Predisposing Conditions for Statin‐Induced New‐Onset Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Paradox Relative to Their Pleiotropic Metabolic Effects

Endocrinology, Diabetes &Metabolism, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.
The primary function of statins is to inhibit cholesterol synthesis, which contributes to their antidiabetic effects. However, the majority of the diabetic effects of statins are due to inhibition of isoprenoid synthesis. Atorvastatin, simvastatin and rosuvastatin possess the most pronounced diabetogenic properties. In contrast, lovastatin, fluvastatin,

CDC42 supports HBV entry by NTCP translocation to the plasma membrane and macropinocytosis

EMBO Reports
CDC42 is a member of Rho GTPase family that regulates various biological processes and its activity can be hijacked by invading pathogens. Here, we discovered that the level of active CDC42 in hepatocytes positively correlates with the entry capacity of ...
