The dynamics of spatio-temporal Rho GTPase signaling: formation of signaling patterns

F1000Research, 2016
Rho GTPases are crucial signaling molecules that regulate a plethora of biological functions. Traditional biochemical, cell biological, and genetic approaches have founded the basis of Rho GTPase biology.

On subcellular distribution of the zinc finger 469 protein (ZNF469) and observed discrepancy in the localization of endogenous and overexpressed ZNF469

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ZNF469 regulates the expression of genes encoding extracellular matrix proteins. Endogenous ZNF469 is predominantly cytoplasmic, while in transfected cells, it forms aggregates reminiscent of biomolecular condensates, located mainly in the nucleus. These condensates exhibit overlapping staining with proteasomes and are also associated with the mitotic ...

Calcium modulating ligand confers risk for Parkinson's disease and impacts lysosomes

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Several genetic loci known to confer risk for Parkinson's disease (PD) function in lysosomal pathways. We systematically screened common variants linked to PD risk by genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) for impact on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteins reflecting lysosomal function.

RhoA and Rac1 as Mechanotransduction Mediators in Colorectal Cancer

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Analysing RhoA and Rac1 protein levels in Colorectal cancer (CRC) samples under mechanical strain highlights their potential as diagnostic markers. Monitoring their activity could offer valuable insights into how cancer spreads, paving the way for new approaches to better understand and diagnose colorectal cancer.

Insights on Advances in 3D Bioprinting for Peripheral Nerve Regeneration

Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Peripheral nerve injury is a common condition due to trauma that significantly impacts the life of the affected individual. This review explores the anatomy, classification, and pathophysiology of peripheral nerve injuries. It also discusses various types of nerve conduits and presents a detailed review of 3D bioprinted nerve conduits used in both in ...

Chromatin Organization Governs Transcriptional Response and Plasticity of Cancer Stem Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Through a combination of transcriptomic and histone mapping studies integrated with chromatin imaging, we define how chromatin organization in nanoscale packing domains fine tunes the plasticity of cancer stem cells (CSCs) driving evasion from and survival after chemotherapy.

DNA Origami‐Cyanine Nanocomplex for Precision Imaging of KRAS‐Mutant Pancreatic Cancer Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
DNA origami‐cyanine (Do‐Cy) nanocomplexes are synthesized to selectively image KRAS‐mutant pancreatic cancer cells in the highly desmoplastic tumors. This study shows that the Do‐Cy nanocomplexes are preferentially internalized by cancer cells over other stroma cells via KRAS‐dependent macropinocytosis.

Coordination of Rho GTPase activities during cell protrusion

Nature, 2009
The GTPases Rac1, RhoA and Cdc42 act together to control cytoskeleton dynamics. Recent biosensor studies have shown that all three GTPases are activated at the front of migrating cells, and biochemical evidence suggests that they may regulate one another:

SIRT3‐Mediated Deacetylation of DRP1K711 Prevents Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SIRT3‐mediated deacetylation of DRP1 at K711 resists mitochondrial dysfunction and DA neuronal death in PD, uncovering a treatment target. Abstract Dysregulation of mitochondrial dynamics is a key contributor to the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD).

Loss of Golga7 Suppresses Oncogenic Nras‐Driven Leukemogenesis without Detectable Toxicity in Adult Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
NRAS mutations are widespread in hematologic malignancies. Our study shows that GOLGA7 serves as a safe and effective therapeutic target for NRAS‐driven leukemia. Loss of Golga7 in adult mice effectively suppresses NrasG12D‐driven myeloproliferative neoplasm by disrupting its PM localization and impairing subsequent MAPK signaling, without affecting ...
