PAK1 activation drives divergent resistance mechanisms to aromatase inhibition and tamoxifen in a luminal: A breast cancer model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Breast cancer remains a major cause of cancer death in women, frequently developing endocrine therapy resistance. This study demonstrates that upregulated p21‐activated kinase 1 (PAK1) activity drives resistance to tamoxifen and long‐term estrogen deprivation in ER+ breast cancer models.

Solubility of cytoskeletal proteins in immunohistochemistry and the influence of fixation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
For accurate and quantitative immunohistochemical localization of antigens it is crucial to know the solubility of tissue proteins and their degree of loss during processing. In this study we focused on the solubility of several cytoskeletal proteins in

Targeting transcription factors associated with hemoglobinopathies: Lessons from successful interventions and implications for cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the transcription factors, repressive chromatin‐modifying complexes, and epigenetic mechanisms that control fetal hemoglobin repression. Notably, many regulators of γ‐globin silencing also function in transcriptional and epigenetic networks that drive cancer, highlighting opportunities to translate advances in hemoglobinopathy ...

Desmin and dystrophin abnormalities in upper airway muscles of snorers and patients with sleep apnea

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2019
Background The pathophysiology of obstruction and swallowing dysfunction in snores and sleep apnea patients remains unclear. Neuropathy and to some extent myopathy have been suggested as contributing causes.

Large‐scale bidirectional arrayed genetic screens identify OXR1 and EMC4 as modifiers of αSynuclein aggregation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.

Stopping Transformed Growth with Cytoskeletal Proteins: Turning a Devil into an Angel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
SummaryThe major hallmark of cancer cells is uncontrollable growth on soft matrices (transformed growth), which indicates that they have lost the ability to properly sense the rigidity of their surroundings.

Distribution of cytoskeletal and adhesion proteins in adult zebrafish skeletal muscle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The organization of cytoskeletal and adhesion proteins in skeletal muscle is critical for its contractile function. Zebrafish has become a paramount model for studies of vertebrate biology, including muscle.

RoundMi: A quantitative method to analyze mitochondrial morphology in mitotic cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
RoundMi is a workflow for rapid analysis of mitochondrial morphology in mitotic cells. By combining adaptive preprocessing with automated segmentation and quantification, it enables accurate measurements from single focal plane images, reducing acquisition time and computational demands while remaining compatible with high‐throughput fixed and live ...

A proteomic analysis of differentiating dopamine neurons derived from human embryonic stem cells

open access: yesAnimal Cells and Systems, 2019
Human embryonic stem cells (hESC) are being exploited for potential use in cell transplantation due to their capacity for self-renewal and pluripotency. Dopamine (DA) neurons derived from hESC represent a promising source of cell replacement therapy for ...

The C‐terminal region of KIF26B is indispensable for nephron progenitor condensation and kidney formation in mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KIF26B plays an important role in kidney development. We engineered mice lacking the C‐terminal region of KIF26B and found severe kidney defects, including bilateral renal agenesis, similar to full Kif26b knockout mice. The mutation disrupted nephron progenitor condensation and reduced Gdnf‐Wnt11 signaling, showing that the KIF26B C‐terminal region is ...
