Transcriptional profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles from prebiopsy prostate cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RNA profiling of circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) from blood samples of men undergoing prostate biopsy identifies transcripts associated with clinically significant prostate cancer. Integrative analysis with public tumor datasets links EV‐derived gene signatures to tumor stage and progression‐free survival, highlighting CASP3, XRCC2, and RIT1 ...

Membrane fluidity determines sensitivity of filamentous fungi to chitosan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The antifungal mode of action of chitosan has been studied for the last 30 years, but is still little understood. We have found that the plasma membrane forms a barrier to chitosan in chitosan-resistant but not chitosan-sensitive fungi.

Differential effects of lysophospholipid headgroups, acyl chain length and saturation on vacuole acidification, Ca2+ transport, membrane fluidity, and fusion

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
SNARE-mediated membrane fusion is regulated by the lipid composition of the engaged bilayers. Lipids impact fusion through direct protein-lipid interactions or through modulating the physical properties of membranes to affect protein function ...

Interaction of HS1BP3 with cortactin modulates TKS5 localisation, cell secretion and cancer malignancy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Here, we demonstrate that HS1BP3 interacts with Cortactin through a proline‐rich region (PRR3.1) and show that this interaction, and HS1BP3 itself, promote cancer cell proliferation and invasion. Inhibition of this interaction leads to build‐up of TKS5 in multivesicular endosomes and altered secretion of CD63 and CD9, providing an explanation for the ...

Investigating Membrane Fluidity in Two-dimensions

open access: yes, 2020
Biological membranes allow for compartmentalization within cells, membranes possess unique, complex chemical and morphological features, thus proving it difficult to investigate the processes that occur at the membrane interface.

Effects of Alcohol on Membrane Fluidity of Human Erythrocyte

open access: yes, 1994
Membrane fluidity in human erythrocytes was measured by a spin label method using an electron spin resonance spectrometer in healthy volunteers after ingestion of alcohol (1.5 ml of whisky/kg body weight).

Phase separation of the plasma membrane in human red blood cells as a potential tool for diagnosis and progression monitoring of type 1 diabetes mellitus.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Glycosylation, oxidation and other post-translational modifications of membrane and transmembrane proteins can alter lipid density, packing and interactions, and are considered an important factor that affects fluidity variation in membranes.

Plant-Unique cis/trans Isomerism of Long-Chain Base Unsaturation is Selectively Required for Aluminum Tolerance Resulting from Glucosylceramide-Dependent Plasma Membrane Fluidity

open access: yesPlants, 2019
Cis/trans isomerism of the Δ8 unsaturation of long-chain base (LCB) is found only in plant sphingolipids. This unique geometry is generated by sphingolipid LCB Δ8 desaturase SLD which produces both isomers at various ratios, resulting in ...

USP29‐regulated noncanonical stabilization of the hypoxia‐inducible factor‐α in aggressive prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identify USP29 as the only DUB mirroring CA9 expression, a marker of hypoxia and HIF pathway activation associated with PCA aggressiveness. USP29 stabilizes HIF‐1α and HIF‐2α via a noncanonical mechanism that is independent of PHD/pVHL activity yet relies on proteasomal regulation, establishing USP29 as a previously unrecognized regulator of hypoxic
