Lysosome Evanescence Mediates Autophagic Flux Impairment in Glucose Imbalanced Environments

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Schwann cells (SCs) support axonal function and promote nerve regeneration. This study investigated how various glucose concentrations influence SC viability, oxidative stress, and autophagy, which contribute to diabetic neuropathy. RSC96 SCs were cultured under five glucose conditions (0, 2.5, 5.5, 50, or 100 mM) for 24, 48, and 72 h.

Autophagy Plays a Suppressive Role in Bladder Tumor Formation in an Orthotopic Mouse Model and Bladder Cancer Patient Specimens

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autophagy plays either a suppressing or promoting role during tumor development. Clarifying the role of autophagy in bladder tumorigenesis both in vitro and in vivo is crucial for developing novel therapeutic strategies through manipulating autophagy activity.

miR‐9 Restricts Insulin Secretion by Targeting Rab34, Which Mediates Lysosomal Degradation of Proinsulin

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insulin secretion is a complex, vesicular transport process. Rab34 is a key regulator of intracellular vesicle transport; however, its role in insulin secretion has not yet been reported. miRNA‐9 is vital for the development and progression of the diagnosis and treatment of type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to investigate whether miR‐9 targets

Knockdown of CREB3L4 Inhibits Autophagy and Reduces Cisplatin Resistance in Gastric Cancer Cells by Downregulating BAG3

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cisplatin resistance remains a major obstacle in the treatment of gastric cancer (GC), and autophagy has been increasingly recognized as a key cytoprotective mechanism contributing to chemoresistance. CREB3L4 is an endoplasmic reticulum membrane‐bound transcription factor that has been shown to regulate the expression of Bcl‐2 associated ...

WDR72 Drives Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression by Inhibiting Autophagy via the PI3K/Akt/mTOR Pathway

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is an aggressive malignancy with a high rate of recurrence and metastasis, necessitating the identification of novel therapeutic targets. WD repeat‐containing protein 72 (WDR72) has been linked to various cancers, but its specific biological function and underlying mechanism in ESCC remain largely ...

Plastic Shrinkage Cracking of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement Concrete in Normal and Extreme Climates: Influence of Superplasticiser

Advances in Civil Engineering
Limestone calcined clay cement (LC3) has emerged as a promising low-carbon alternative to ordinary Portland cement (OPC). However, its early-age cracking, particularly plastic shrinkage cracking, remains underexplored. This study investigates the plastic

The Regulatory Role and Mechanism of Myoferlin in Mitophagy During Papillary Thyroid Carcinogenesis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most prevalent subtype of thyroid cancer; however, the regulatory mechanisms by which mitophagy influences its progression remain inadequately elucidated. This study sought to examine the role of myoferlin (MYOF) in mitophagy and its molecular basis during PTC development. Utilizing three paired PTC and

TRIM Expression and Its Association With Disease Activity in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease with diverse manifestations, including rash, arthritis, and nephritis. Although autoantibodies are a key feature of SLE, their levels often poorly reflect disease severity, suggesting the involvement of additional contributing factors.

Nigericin‐Triggered Phosphodynamics in Inflammasome Formation and Pyroptosis

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Innate immune signaling relies heavily on phosphorylation cascades to mount effective immune responses. Although traditional innate immune signaling cascades following TLR4 stimulation have been investigated through a temporally quantitative phosphoproteomic lens, far fewer studies have applied these methods to distinct signaling following the

Amphibian‐Derived Peptide OA‐AL14 Alleviates UVB‐Induced Skin Photoaging via Autophagy Activation Mediated by the AMPK/mTOR Pathway

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The schematic diagram illustrates that the amphibian‐derived peptide OA‐AL14 protects against UVB‐induced skin photoaging through a dual mechanism: activating the Nrf2 pathway to counteract oxidative stress and modulating the AMPK/mTOR axis to induce protective autophagy. ABSTRACT Skin photoaging, primarily driven by ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation, is a
