Chloroquine Attenuates Oxidative Stress in Gentamicin-Induced Nephrotoxicity in Rats

Dose-Response, 2022
The wider application of gentamicin is limited by potential adverse effects (nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity). The goal of our study was to investigate the effects of chloroquine on biochemical and oxidative stress parameters in gentamicin-induced ...

Predictors of response and rational combinations for the novel MCL‐1 inhibitor MIK665 in acute myeloid leukemia

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study characterizes the responses of primary acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patient samples to the MCL‐1 inhibitor MIK665. The results revealed that monocytic differentiation is associated with MIK665 sensitivity. Conversely, elevated ABCB1 expression is a potential biomarker of resistance to the treatment, which can be overcome by the combination ...

Variation of the Chloroquine Resistance Transporter (Crt) Gene in Chloroquine-Resistant and Chloroquine-Sensitive Plasmodium berghei [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Parasitology, 2008
Background: The emergence and spread of chloroquine resistant Plasmodium falciparum in the world stimulated some investigators to consider different aspects of chloroquine resistance in human and rodent Plasmodia.

ATG4B is required for mTORC1‐mediated anabolic activity and is associated with clinical outcomes in non‐small cell lung cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The relationship between anabolic and catabolic processes governing lung cancer cell growth is nuanced. We show that ATG4B, an autophagy regulator, is elevated in lung cancer and that high ATG4B is associated with worse patient outcomes. Targeting ATG4B in cells reduces growth, protein synthesis, and mTORC1 activity, demonstrating a new relationship ...

Evaluation of the effect of probiotic as add-on therapy with conventional therapy and alone in malaria induced mice

BMC Research Notes, 2021
Objective Chloroquine is used as a conventional drug therapy for the treatment of malaria. The existence of resistance to chloroquine shown among various species of Plasmodium leads to the search for more efficacious therapy to treat malaria.

DDX3X induces mesenchymal transition of endothelial cells by disrupting BMPR2 signaling

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Elevated DDX3X expression led to downregulation of BMPR2, a key regulator of endothelial homeostasis and function. Our co‐immunoprecipitation assays further demonstrated a molecular interaction between DDX3X and BMPR2. Notably, DDX3X promoted lysosomal degradation of BMPR2, thereby impairing its downstream signaling and facilitating endothelial‐to ...

Metformin promotes mitochondrial integrity through AMPK‐signaling in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Metformin mediates mitochondrial quality control in Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) fibroblasts carrying mtDNA mutations. At therapeutic levels, metformin activates AMPK signaling to restore mitochondrial dynamics by promoting fusion and restraining fission, while preserving mitochondrial mass, enhancing autophagy/mitophagy and biogenesis ...

Prevalence, determinants and outcomes of low disease activity and remission attainment in SLE patients with clinically active disease

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives This study aimed to identify the frequency and determinants of Lupus Low Disease Activity State (LLDAS) and Definition of Remission in SLE (DORIS‐remission) attainment in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with clinically active disease, and the frequency and determinants of flare and damage accrual after target attainment.

p53 is required for chloroquine-induced atheroprotection but not insulin sensitization[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2010
An intact genotoxic stress response appears to be atheroprotective and insulin sensitizing. ATM, mutated in ataxia telangiectasia, is critical for the genotoxic stress response, and its deficiency is associated with accelerated atherosclerosis and ...
