A New 3D Colon on a Chip to Decipher the Influence of Mechanical Forces on the Physiological Cellular Ecosystem

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
To dissect how mechanical forces influence intestinal physiology, we developed a stretchable 3D colon‐on‐chip that integrates tunable topography, stiffness and peristalsis‐like motion within a physiologically relevant microenvironment. We showed that stretching is a dominant factor governing epithelial behavior, markedly enhancing proliferation and ...

Mutation type‐specific transcriptomic signatures and readthrough therapy rescue in SMC1A‐related developmental and epileptic encephalopathy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to investigate the molecular consequences of pathogenic variants in the SMC1A gene—particularly those associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE85)—and to evaluate the therapeutic potential of ataluren in restoring SMC1A function and mitigating disease‐related transcriptomic and genomic ...

Falling from grace: HPRT is not suitable as an endogenous control for cancer-related studies

Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2019
HPRT is a housekeeping enzyme involved in recycling guanine and inosine in the purine salvage pathway. As a housekeeping gene, HPRT has been widely used as an endogenous control for molecular studies evaluating changes in gene expression.

Anatomical Distribution of Nucleoside System in the Human Brain and Implications for Therapy [PDF]

, 2013
Nucleosides have a wide range of physiological and pathophysiological roles in the human brain as modulators of a variety of neural functions. For example, adenosine, inosine, guanosine, and uridine participate in the mechanisms underlying memory ...

Proteomic profile of CSF obtained at the time of diagnosis determines amyotrophic lateral sclerosis progression and survival: CXCL7 levels in disease prognosis and survival

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Untargeted multiomic profiling of cerebrospinal fluid reveals that proteomic, but not lipidomic, signatures robustly distinguish ALS patients from controls and stratify individuals by survival, highlighting marked molecular differences between short survival and long survival disease.

The housekeeping gene hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) regulates multiple developmental and metabolic pathways of murine embryonic stem cell neuronal differentiation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The mechanisms by which mutations of the purinergic housekeeping gene hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) cause the severe neurodevelopmental Lesch Nyhan Disease (LND) are poorly understood.

Oleanolic acid blocks the purine salvage pathway for cancer therapy by inactivating SOD1 and stimulating lysosomal proteolysis

Molecular Therapy: Oncolytics, 2021
Metabolic reprogramming is a core hallmark of cancer and is key for tumorigenesis and tumor progression. Investigation of metabolic perturbation by anti-cancer compounds would allow a thorough understanding of the underlying mechanisms of these agents ...

PLK4 is a potential therapeutic target in nonmelanoma skin cancers: Evidence from molecular and in vivo studies

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation is the main etiologic driver of nonmelanoma skin cancers (NMSCs), including basal cell (BCC) and cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (cSCC), which are the most prevalent types of cancers in the US. In this study, we demonstrate that the serine/threonine kinase Polo‐like kinase 4 (PLK4) is overexpressed in NMSCs ...

Hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase 1, a target of miR-125b-5p, promotes cell proliferation and invasion in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Heliyon, 2023
The mechanism of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase 1 (HPRT1) upregulation and its function in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) remains obscure.
