Exploiting metabolic adaptations to overcome dabrafenib treatment resistance in melanoma cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We show that dabrafenib‐resistant melanoma cells undergo mitochondrial remodeling, leading to elevated respiration and ROS production balanced by stronger antioxidant defenses. This altered redox state promotes survival despite mitochondrial damage but renders resistant cells highly vulnerable to ROS‐inducing compounds such as PEITC, highlighting redox

Maternal hypoxia increases hippocampal cell susceptibility to ischemia after middle cerebral artery occlusion in rat offspring

Folia Neuropathologica, 2017
Introduction : Maternal hypoxia induces an adverse uterine environment and may induce long-term effects in offspring. This study investigated whether maternal hypoxia increases hippocampal cell vulnerability and exacerbates neurological impairments in ...

Homogeneous Cytochrome 579 Is an Octamer That Reacts Too Slowly With Soluble Iron to Be the Initial Iron Oxidase in the Respiratory Chain of Leptospirillum ferriphilum

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The exact role that cytochrome 579 plays in the aerobic iron respiratory chain of Leptospirillum ferriphilum is unclear. This paper presents genomic, structural, and kinetic data on the cytochrome 579 purified from cell-free extracts of L.

Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The ruthenium‐based metallodrug plecstatin exerts its anticancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) primarily through selective targeting of plectin. By disrupting plectin‐mediated cytoskeletal organization, plecstatin inhibits anchorage‐dependent growth, cell polarization, and tumor cell dissemination.

Structure of an electron transfer complex. II. Chemical modification of carboxyl groups of cytochrome c peroxidase in presence and absence of cytochrome c.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1985
Cytochrome c peroxidase forms an electron transfer complex with cytochrome c. The complex is governed by ionic bonds between side chain amino groups of cytochrome c and carboxyl groups of peroxidase. To localize the binding site for cytochrome c on the peroxidase, we have used the method of differential chemical modification.

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

The Functional Role of Thiol Groups in Protease-Solubilized NADPH-Cytochrome c Reductase from Pork-Liver Microsomes [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1977
The total —SH content of protease-solubilized NADPH—cytochrome c reductase (EC 1.6.2.4) from pork liver microsomes was determined to be 5.9 ± 0.3 mol thiol groups per mol of protein. Only three —SH groups of the protease-solubilized NADPH – cytochrome c reductase could be modified by 0.34 or 1.0 mM 5,5′-dithio-bis(2-nitrobenzoate) at pH 7.5 and + 4°C ...

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...

Carboxyl group protonation upon reduction of the Paracoccus denitrificans cytochrome c oxidase: direct evidence by FTIR spectroscopy [PDF]

FEBS Letters, 1996
The redox reactions of the cytochrome c oxidase from Paracoccus denitrificans were investigated in a thin‐layer cell designed for the combination of electrochemistry under anaerobic conditions with UVIVIS and IR spectroscopy. Quantitative and reversible electrochemical reactions were obtained at a surface‐modified electrode for all cofactors as ...

Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...
