Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
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 ...

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 ...

Genes and genetics in eye diseases: a genomic medicine approach for investigating hereditary and inflammatory ocular disorders [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ophthalmology, 2018
Past 25y have witnessed an exponential increase in knowledge and understanding of ocular diseases and their respective genetic underpinnings. As a result, scientists have mapped many genes and their variants that can influence vision and health of our ...

Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (Leber\u27s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy)

open access: yes, 2022
Hereditary Optic Neuropathy - A hereditary optic neuropathy is caused by a genetic variant (or mutation) that causes dysfunction of the neurons (nerve cells) which form the optic nerve.

Hereditary angioedema (HAE) in children and adolescents : a consensus on therapeutic strategies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Hereditary angioedema due to C1 inhibitor (C1 esterase inhibitor) deficiency (types I and II HAE-C1-INH) is a rare disease that usually presents during childhood or adolescence with intermittent episodes of potentially life-threatening angioedema ...

Adenosine triphosphate as a modulator of protein interactions and stability

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ATP is best known as the cell's energy currency, but it also shapes how proteins fold, interact, aggregate and form biomolecular condensates. This review explains the emerging physical principles behind these effects, including weak binding to charged protein regions, magnesium‐dependent behaviour and concentration‐dependent control of protein ...

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

Genetic heterogeneity in autosomal dominant optic atrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Purpose: Autosomal dominant optic atrophy is a hereditary optic neuropathy characterized by progressive visual loss in childhood, color vision anomalies, visual field defects and temporal pallor of the optic disc. This disease has been mapped to a 1.4 cM
