Proteostasis of organelles in aging and disease
Cells rely on regulated proteostasis mechanisms to keep their internal compartments functioning properly. When these mechanisms fail, damaged proteins accumulate, disrupting organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi, and lysosomes, as well as membraneless organelles, such as stress granules, processing bodies, the ...

Cell‐Specific Expression and Cellular Compartmental Regulation in Camptothecin Biosynthesis
ABSTRACT Plant secondary metabolites such as monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) show tightly regulated biosynthesis and accumulation in specific organelles of distinct cell types. However, the cell‐specific expression patterns of anticancer MIA camptothecin biosynthetic genes in Ophiorrhiza pumila and the regulatory mechanisms of camptothecin ...

RAD51 and RAD51 paralog inhibition sensitizes nonreplicating quiescent keratinocytes to UV radiation
UV radiation and other compounds generate DNA adducts that block transcription and induce cell death if not removed by the nucleotide excision repair system. In this work, we used a small‐scale pharmacological screen to discover that inhibition of the recombinase RAD51 sensitized nonreplicating quiescent keratinocytes to both UVR and other agents that ...

Piperazine‐based monodentate and S,N‐bidentate Ru(II)‐p‐cymene complexes were synthesized through distinct coordination strategies and evaluated for antimelanoma activity. Among the investigated compounds, the S,N‐bidentate complex 2b exhibited significantly enhanced cytotoxicity (IC50 = 6.1 ± 0.8 ) against melanoma cells, particularly the A375 cell ...
