Targeting hexokinase 2 to induce breast cancer cell senescence

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Hexokinase 2 (HK2) is a key enzyme linked to high tumour cell proliferation. Its inhibitors such as 3‐bromopyruvic acid (3‐BP) induce cancer cell death, highlighting HK2 modulation as potential anti‐cancer treatment. However, standard chemotherapies often cause the emergence of senescent cancer cells, which goes along with cell ...

Neurokinin‐1 receptor activation protects against cardiac fibrosis, inflammation and diastolic dysfunction in type 2 diabetic mice

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose The pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)‐induced cardiomyopathy involves cardiac fibrosis that leads to diastolic dysfunction. We established that replacement of lost substance P (SP) that occurs in T2DM reduces cardiac fibrosis and decreases inflammation in T2DM mice and non‐human primates.

The Diagnostic Odyssey of a Biochemically Confirmed Case of ML II: The First Western Patient With LYSET Deficiency

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
We identify a female patient with a homozygous nonsense variant (p.Gln38Ter) in the LYSET gene. This is the first western report of a challenging case of an extensive diagnostic odyssey and demonstrates that the LYSET gene must be considered in the differential diagnosis when M6P‐labeled lysosomal enzymes are altered.

Cellular Morphometric Analysis (CellMorph)—a comprehensive imaging‐based tool for quantifying cellular phenotype heterogeneity and dynamics across biological processes

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
CellMorph is a groundbreaking tool that allows researchers to analyze multiple features from single cells, including cell size and shape, cytosolic staining and subcellular texture, nuclear staining, and morphometry. By evaluating images from both bright‐field and fluorescence microscopy, it also tracks changes in living cells during key processes such

RAB4A acts as a negative feedback regulator of extracellular vesicle secretion during TGF‐β signaling

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
TGF‐β signaling regulates extracellular vesicle (EV) release in cancer cells by modulating the expression and activity of genes associated with EV biogenesis. The TGF‐β‐induced upregulation of RAB4A expression facilitates fast endosomal recycling, a process that limits the fusion of multivesicular bodies with the plasma membrane and EV secretion. Hence,
