Molecular mechanisms of Cys-loop ion channel receptor modulation by ivermectin

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2012
Ivermectin is a gold standard anthelmintic drug that works by potently depressing neuronal activity and muscular contractility in arthropods and nematodes. At the molecular level, ivermectin activates inhibitory glutamate-gated chloride channels (GluClRs)

HSP90AB1‐Mediated Ubiquitin‐Proteasome Degradation of ITGBL1 Promotes Osteosarcoma Progression by Inhibiting Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress‐Induced Autophagy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study delineates a novel HSP90AB1‐ITGBL1 signaling axis governing osteosarcoma. HSP90AB1 promotes K63‐linked ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of ITGBL1. Restoring ITGBL1 induces reactive oxygen species‐dependent endoplasmic reticulum stress and pro‐death autophagy, suppressing tumor growth and metastasis.
