Loss of the putative Rab GTPase, Ypt7, impairs the virulence of Cryptococcus neoformans

Frontiers in Microbiology
Small GTPases of the Rab family coordinate multiple membrane fusion and trafficking events in eukaryotes. In fungi, the Rab GTPase, Ypt7, plays a critical role in late endosomal trafficking, and is required for homotypic fusion events in vacuole ...

Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster as Model Organisms in Biofactor Research

BioFactors, Volume 52, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
This review presents Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster as powerful and ethically sound invertebrate model organisms that can be used to investigate nutritional science questions relating to biofactors. Such nutritional phenotyping studies can bridge the gap between in vitro studies and in vivo research in mammals.

Silencing the Signal: The Metastasis Suppressor NDRG1 Disrupts Small Extracellular Vesicle‐Mediated Crosstalk in Pancreatic Cancer

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2026.
NDRG1 suppresses pancreatic cancer progression by disrupting small extracellular vesicle biogenesis, altering cargo composition, and inhibiting EV uptake by cancer cells—thereby impairing tumour–stroma communication and fibrotic activation. This study reveals NDRG1 as a novel regulator of extracellular vesicle dynamics and a promising therapeutic ...

Maturation of phagosomes containing different erythrophagocytic particles in primary macrophages

FEBS Open Bio, 2017
Erythrophagocytosis is a physiological process that aims to remove damaged red blood cells from the circulation in order to avoid hemolysis and uncontrolled liberation of iron. Many efforts have been made to understand heme trafficking inside macrophages,

Differential effects of lipid composition on the thermal and functional properties of membrane associated CYP2J2

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract CYP2J2 is a membrane‐bound cytochrome P450 that is expressed in cardiomyocytes, where it is known to metabolize arachidonic acid into cardioprotective epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs). It consists of transmembrane domains embedded in the hydrophobic segments of the cell membrane and surrounded by various lipids.
