Deciphering the Impact of RAC1‐SPTAN1 in ARPKD Cystogenesis Using Multifaceted Models

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Distal/connecting tubules expressing SLC8A1 have been suggested as a potential origin of ARPKD cysts. SPTAN1 has been identified as a key molecule in ARPKD cyst formation. Restoring SPTAN1 in PKHD1−/− organoids reduced cyst formation, normalized calcium levels, and decreased RAC1/c‐FOS expression, highlighting SPTAN1's role in ARPKD and the potential ...

Aggregation‐Induced Resonance Energy Transfer in Polymer Dots to Boost Electrochemiluminescence Performance for Bioimaging of Glycan on Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study pioneers an aggregation‐induced resonance energy transfer mechanism by synergistically integrating aggregation‐induced emission (AIE), resonance energy transfer (RET), and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) within co‐reactant conjugated polymers to develop self‐enhanced ECL emitters, which achieves an ECL efficiency up to 92.6 ...

Cholesterol Promotes Lung Adenocarcinoma Brain Metastasis by Stabilizing EGFR Protein to Drive EMT, Metabolic Reprogramming, and Premetastatic Niche Formation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cholesterol is revealed as a multitasking fuel for lung adenocarcinoma brain metastasis: it locks EGFR at the membrane to sustain AKT/NF‐κB–driven glycolysis and EMT, loosens the blood–brain barrier by promoting Claudin‐5 loss, and rewires microglia through IL‐4R lipid‐raft–JAK1/STAT6 signaling.

Unveiling a New Link: Cholesterol Deficiency in Smith–Lemli–Opitz and Niemann–Pick C as a Driver of Ciliopathies

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by defective function of either the primary cilia (a large number) or the motile cilia (a much smaller number). These have been defined as diseases with mutations in genes encoding individual ciliary or cilia‐associated proteins.

Ceramide-enriched microdomains in planar membranes

Current Opinion in Colloid & Interface Science, 2010
Ceramide has a large effect on the properties of biological membranes, increasing lipid order and promoting lateral phase separation, and plays an important role in cell signaling. This review provides an overview of recent studies of the effects of direct ceramide incorporation and enzymatic ceramide generation on planar supported membranes, including
