The VHL tumor suppressor at the crossroad of protein folding, aggregation, and cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Mutations, environmental stress, and chaperone dysfunction can destabilize pVHL, promoting its conversion from the native folded state into amyloid‐like assemblies. This transition may contribute to protein storage, cell dormancy, survival, and drug resistance.

Risk Assessment of Bioaccumulation Substances. Part II: Description of a Model Framework [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This report provides a proposal for a framework for risk assessment of bioaccumulative substances, either from produced water discharges or present as background contamination.

Gut microbiota alterations in patients with non‐small‐cell lung cancer undergoing chemoradiotherapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We investigated the impact of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT) on the gut microbiota in patients with locally advanced non‐small‐cell lung cancer. Overall gut microbiota composition remained largely stable throughout CRT while antibiotic exposure may influence microbial diversity.

Relevance of Organic Matter Compositions, Structures and Associations to Soil Aggregates and to Sustainable Productivity

open access: yesAgronomy
Long-term cultivation practices, in which mineral fertilizers are the only amendments made to crop-supporting soils, are giving rise to the degradation of soil structures in the world’s most fertile soils.

Macromolecular excipients exert biological effects via their microbial fermentation absorbable products. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Fermentation of these macromolecular food or pharmaceutical excipient ingredients by the gut microbiota leads to the formation of short chain fatty acids (SCFA) which can be absorbed from the gut into the general circulation.

Predictive and prognostic biomarkers of Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin therapy failure in bladder cancer patients: A systematic review

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
High‐risk bladder cancer is typically treated with Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG), but 30–40% of patients relapse. No FDA‐ or CE‐approved biomarkers currently predict or prognosticate BCG failure. We systematically reviewed the literature and identified 72 eligible studies, revealing several promising biomarkers associated with BCG treatment response ...

Uncharacterized and uncharacterizable attributes of macromolecular excipients [PDF]

open access: yes
Macromolecular excipients are unique in that each (macro)molecule or polymer chain can chemically differ significantly from another. However, these differences may not be detected across different lots or different samples because the analytical methods ...

A Whole City Response to the Use of Novel Psychoactive Substances (NPS) by Young People in Newcastle-upon-Tyne [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In recent years, Novel Psychoactive Substances (NPS) (otherwise known as ‘legal highs’) have posed an increasingly significant problem for practitioners and policy makers due to their widespread availability, largely unknown chemical composition and ...

Regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1 by p53‐ΔNp63 crosstalk modulates the DNA damage response and therapeutic efficacy in HNSCC

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) p53 and p63 exert opposite roles on the transcription regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1. Under basal conditions, p53 levels are low and p63 represses NEAT1 expression. Upon genotoxic stress, p53 is rapidly induced, displacing p63 from the NEAT1 promoter leading to NEAT1 transcriptional activation and ...

Paclitaxel induces NM2‐dependent cellular contraction through GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and RhoA/ROCK activation in cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Taxanes are widely used chemotherapeutics whose effects on cellular mechanics remain poorly understood. We show that paclitaxel induces rapid cellular contraction by promoting GEF‐H1 dissociation from microtubules and non‐muscle myosin II activation through RhoA/ROCK.
