Unlocking the potential of cell‐permeable nanobodies for intracellular applications
This review outlines current strategies for delivery of nanobodies into cells and highlights recent examples of functional applications. By addressing and manipulating intracellular targets, these molecules hold great potential for treating cancer, respiratory diseases and neurological disorders, making this a vibrant area of research in the biomedical

Death Receptors 4 and 5 and Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an irreversible lethal interstitial lung disease with an unknown cause, killing about 40,000 people per year. In IPF, lung fibroblasts become abnormally activated during tissue repair process, creating excessive ...

How structural disorder and polyelectrolyte properties of prothymosin α enable its large interactome
In this review, complexes of the fully disordered and highly negatively charged prothymosin α are collected, described, and discussed. Linked to its poly‐electrostatic character, prothymosin α engages a large interactome through multiple different binding modes ranging from fully disordered complexes to short linear motif (SLiM)‐driven interactions ...

Combining chemotherapeutic agents and netrin‐1 interference potentiates cancer cell death
The secreted factor netrin‐1 is upregulated in a fraction of human cancers as a mechanism to block apoptosis induced by netrin‐1 dependence receptors DCC and UNC5H. Targeted therapies aiming to trigger tumour cell death via netrin‐1/receptors interaction

Mitochondrial translation and coordinated cytosolic translation in metabolic homeostasis and disease
Mitochondrial function depends on coordinated protein production from the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. This review highlights how cytosolic and mitochondrial translation, mRNA localization, protein import, and respiratory complex assembly are integrated to maintain mitochondrial proteostasis and function.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

TGF beta type II receptor signaling controls Schwann cell death and proliferation in developing nerves [PDF]
During development, Schwann cell numbers are precisely adjusted to match the number of axons. It is essentially unknown which growth factors or receptors carry out this important control in vivo.
