EXT2 promotes sarcoma progression and immune evasion via the AKT/c-Myc/PD-L1 axis: a multi-omics and validation study [PDF]
Background Sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of mesenchymal malignancies with diverse histological subtypes, limited treatment options, and generally poor outcomes in advanced disease. EXT2, a glycosyltransferase involved in heparan sulfate biosynthesis,

4-HIAA Blocks Methamphetamine-Induced Conditioned Place Preference in Mice Through Modulation of the 5-HT Pathway in the Nucleus Accumbens. [PDF]
4‐HIAA crosses the blood–brain barrier. Treatment (1‐mg/kg) inhibited CPP acquisition, promoted extinction and prevented relapse. These behavioural effects were associated with changes in nucleus accumbens 5‐HT expression. ABSTRACT 4‐hydroxyindole‐3‐acetic acid (4‐HIAA) is a metabolite of psilocin.

Cellular SLC35B4 promotes internalization during influenza A virus entry [PDF]
SLC35B4, a nucleotide sugar transporter that mediates the transport of UDP-GlcNAc and UDP-xylose, was found to be required for the replication of influenza A virus (IAV) of the H5N1 subtype in our genome-wide siRNA library screen. We found that defective

Proteomic Analysis of Complement Proteins in Membranous Nephropathy
Introduction: Membranous nephropathy (MN) is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in Caucasian adults. Phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R)– and exostosin 1 (EXT1)/exostosin 2 (EXT2)–associated MN represent the most common primary and secondary forms
