Membrane-protein interactions in mechanosensitive channels [PDF]
In this paper, we examine the mechanical role of the lipid bilayer in ion channel conformation and function with specific reference to the case of the mechanosensitive channel of large conductance (MscL).

Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

A Continuum Poisson-Boltzmann Model for Membrane Channel Proteins [PDF]
Membrane proteins constitute a large portion of the human proteome and perform a variety of important functions as membrane receptors, transport proteins, enzymes, signaling proteins, and more. The computational studies of membrane proteins are usually much more complicated than those of globular proteins.

PTEN controls glandular morphogenesis through a juxtamembrane β-Arrestin1/ARHGAP21 scaffolding complex [PDF]
PTEN controls three-dimensional (3D) glandular morphogenesis by coupling juxtamembrane signalling to mitotic spindle machinery. While molecular mechanisms remain unclear, PTEN interacts through its C2 membrane-binding domain with the scaffold protein β ...

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

It is unclear if there is an interaction between apical-basal (AB) polarity and planar cell polarity (PCP) pathways during morphogenesis. Here, the authors define a role for the melanoma cell adhesion molecule (MCAM), known to regulate PCP, in AB ...

Identity of an estrogen membrane receptor coupled to a G protein in human breast cancer cells.
Although nonclassical estrogen actions initiated at the cell surface have been described in many tissues, the identities of the membrane estrogen receptors (mERs) mediating these actions remain unclear.

The LEXOVE prospective study evaluated plasma cell‐free extracellular vesicle (cfEV) dynamics using Bradford assay and dynamic light scattering in metastatic non‐small cell lung cancer patients undergoing first‐line treatments, correlating a ∆cfEV < 20% with improved median progression‐free survival in responders versus non‐responders.

Tuberculosis: Past, present and future of the treatment and drug discovery research
Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Despite decades of research driving advancements in drug development and discovery against TB, it still leads among the causes of deaths due to infectious ...
