JNK signaling coordinates epithelial cell turnover through exocytosis in Drosophila ribosomal protein mutants

iScience
Summary: Robust tissue growth is orchestrated by the precise coordination of cell death and cell proliferation. In the developing wing pouches of Drosophila Minute/+ animals, both cell death and compensatory cell proliferation are increased, thereby ...

Identifying feasible operating regimes for early T-cell recognition: The speed, energy, accuracy trade-off in kinetic proofreading and adaptive sorting

, 2018
In the immune system, T cells can quickly discriminate between foreign and self ligands with high accuracy. There is evidence that T-cells achieve this remarkable performance utilizing a network architecture based on a generalization of kinetic ...

Penfluridol targets septin7 to suppress endometrial cancer by septin7-Orai/IP3R-Ca2+-PIK3CA pathway

iScience
Summary: Phenotypic screening of existing drugs is a good strategy to discover new drugs. Herein, 33 psychotherapeutic drugs in our drug library were screened by phenotypic screening and penfluridol (PFD) was found to exhibit excellent anti-endometrial ...

Endothelial calcium firing mediates the extravasation of metastatic tumor cells

iScience
Summary: Metastatic dissemination is driven by genetic, biochemical, and biophysical cues that favor the distant colonization of organs and the formation of life-threatening secondary tumors.

Is the Cell Really a Machine? [PDF]

, 2019
It has become customary to conceptualize the living cell as an intricate piece of machinery, different to a man-made machine only in terms of its superior complexity.

Mitochondrial F0F1-ATP synthase governs the induction of mitochondrial fission

iScience
Summary: Mitochondrial dynamics is a process that balances fusion and fission events, the latter providing a mechanism for segregating dysfunctional mitochondria. Fission is controlled by the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), optic atrophy 1 (OPA1)

β-adrenergic signaling modulates breast cancer cell mechanical behaviors through a RhoA-ROCK-myosin II axis

iScience
Summary: The ability of cancer cells to deform and generate force is implicated in metastasis. We previously showed that β-adrenergic agonists increase cancer cell stiffness, which was associated with enhanced motility and invasion.

USP7 upregulated by TGF-β1 promotes ferroptosis via inhibiting LATS1-YAP axis in sepsis-induced acute lung injury

iScience
Summary: Our work aimed to investigate the interactive roles of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 7 (USP7), and Yes-associated protein (YAP) in ferroptosis during sepsis-secondary acute lung injury (ALI).
