Drosophila as a model system to study nonautonomous mechanisms affecting tumour growth and cell death [PDF]
, 2018 The study of cancer has represented a central focus in medical research for over a century. The great complexity and constant evolution of the pathology require the use of multiple research model systems and interdisciplinary approaches.

Validating an artificial organelle: Studies of lipid droplet-specific proteins on adiposome platform
iScience, 2021 Summary: New strategies are urgently needed to characterize the functions of the lipid droplet (LD). Here, adiposome, an artificial LD mimetic platform, was validated by comparative in vitro bioassays.

Systems biology and cancer, [Editorial] [PDF]
, 2011 The systems approach to complex biological problems has rapidly gained ground during the first decade of this century. There are several reasons for this development. An important one is that while the achievement of sequencing the complete human genome,

Poroptosis: A form of cell death depending on plasma membrane nanopores formation
iScience, 2022 Summary: Immunogenic cell death (ICD) in malignant cells can decrease tumor burden and activate antitumor immune response to obtain lasting antitumor immunity, leading to the elimination of distant metastases and prevention of recurrence. Here, we reveal

miRNAs link metabolic reprogramming to oncogenesis [PDF]
, 2013 The most profound biochemical phenotype of cancer cells is their ability to metabolize glucose to lactate, even under aerobic conditions. This alternative metabolic circuitry is sufficient to support the biosynthetic and energy requirements for cancer ...

Glycemia Regulation: From Feedback Loops to Organizational Closure. [PDF]
, 2020 Endocrinologists apply the idea of feedback loops to explain how hormones regulate certain bodily functions such as glucose metabolism. In particular, feedback loops focus on the maintenance of the plasma concentrations of glucose within a narrow range ...

GSDME-Dependent Incomplete Pyroptosis Permits Selective IL-1α Release under Caspase-1 Inhibition
iScience, 2020 Summary: Pyroptosis is a form of regulated cell death that is characterized by gasdermin processing and increased membrane permeability. Caspase-1 and caspase-11 have been considered to be essential for gasdermin D processing associated with inflammasome

BRCA1 mediates protein homeostasis through the ubiquitination of PERK and IRE1
iScience, 2022 Summary: Tumors with BRCA1 mutations have poor prognoses due to genomic instability. Yet this genomic instability has risks and BRCA1-deficient (def) cancer cells must develop pathways to mitigate these risks.
