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 ...

Multitask learning of a biophysically-detailed neuron model.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology
The human brain operates at multiple levels, from molecules to circuits, and understanding these complex processes requires integrated research efforts.

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

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

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

Structural stability and mass transfer properties of pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) membrane under high operating pressures

open access: yes, 2015
The fabrication of new membrane that is able to produce stable high power density is essential for the development of pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) technology.

Zebrafish fast muscle contractions avoid the mammalian requirement for voltage-gated Na+ channels.

open access: yesPLoS Biology
Fast skeletal muscle fibers from zebrafish share a number of functional properties with mammalian twitch muscle fibers, making this vertebrate a precious model to investigate the pathophysiology of neuromuscular disorders.

Impaired thalamic burst firing in fragile X syndrome

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: The thalamus performs a critical role in sensory processing by gating the flow of sensory information to the neocortex and directing sensory-guided behaviors, functions that are disrupted in people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Measuring mitochondrial membrane potential

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal
Mitochondrial function determines the balance between health and disease, making understanding their bioenergetics an increasingly important focus across biomedical research. Among the most relevant and accessible measures of mitochondrial function in intact cells is the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), typically determined with commercially ...
