Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Pathophysiology of Itch [PDF]

open access: yesDermatologic Clinics, 2018
Chronic itch is a clinically challenging yet scientifically remarkable and complex process. Increasing understanding of the pathophysiology of chronic itch is leading to targeted therapeutic approaches that are now dramatically improving quality of life. This improvement will accelerate as the tools of basic and clinical research continue to be applied

TRPV1 activity and substance P release are required for corneal cold nociception

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The eye shows protective responses to noxious stimuli including cold. Here, the authors show that TRPV1, found co-expressed on TRPM8 + fibres in the cornea, is necessary for cold nociception in the eye.

Circular RNA ITCH Is a Tumor Suppressor in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma Metastasis through miR-106b-5p/PDCD4 Axis

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2021
High metastasis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) significantly influenced survival rate of ccRCC patients. Here, we intended to investigate the impacts of circular RNA ITCH (circ-ITCH) on the metastasis of ccRCC.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

CircRNA Circ-ITCH Inhibits the Proliferation and Invasion of Glioma Cells Through Targeting the miR-106a-5p/SASH1 Axis

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2021
Circ-ITCH, a novel circRNA, was generated from several exons of itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase (ITCH). Recently, circ-ITCH has been demonstrated to be involved in cancer development.
