Paraspinal Extrarenal Wilms Tumor Case Report and Review of Literature. [PDF]
Introduction Extrarenal Wilms tumors (ERWTs) (i.e., nephroblastoma) are exceptionally rare tumors that have only been reported approximately 100 times in the literature. These tumors necessitate histology (rather than imaging) for proper identification, often resulting in a postoperative diagnosis.

The Importance of Trigeminal Cisternography in the Percutaneous Treatment of Idiopathic Trigeminal Neuralgia. [PDF]
Objective: To investigate whether the tip of the spinal needle was accurately positioned within the trigeminal cistern (TC) in patients with idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia undergoing percutaneous treatments through the foramen ovale. Methods: Transovale trigeminal cisternography (TOTC) was performed to ascertain the location of the spinal needle tip ...

Histodenz Separation of Lysosomal Subpopulations for Analysis of Chaperone-mediated Autophagy. [PDF]
Abstract Chaperone‐mediated autophagy (CMA) is the most selective form of lysosomal proteolysis, in which proteins are individually selected for lysosomal degradation. CMA degradation targets bear a pentapeptide consensus motif that is recognized by the cytosolic chaperone HSPA8 (Hsc70), which participates in the trafficking of the target to the ...

Differences in radiopacity among CT contrast agents and concentrations: A quantitative study
Abstract Background and purpose Several studies in the literature have attempted to subjectively assess the degree of visualization of different neurovascular structures using different contrast agents and concentrations. Given the recent contrast shortages, we aim to objectively compare the radiopacity achieved with four angiographic contrast agents ...

The lysosomal proteome of senescent cells contributes to the senescence secretome
Here, we report that senescent cells upregulate the two major types of autophagy, chaperone‐mediated autophagy, and macroautophagy. We analyze the proteome of lysosomes engaged in each pathway, identifying novel markers of senescent cells. We also report that some senescent cells can perform direct lysosomal exocytosis by which lysosomal components ...

Construction of an immune-related prognostic model and potential drugs screening for esophageal cancer based on bioinformatics analyses and network pharmacology. [PDF]
Flow diagram of this study. Abstract Background Esophageal cancer (ESCA) is a highly invasive malignant tumor with poor prognosis. This study aimed to discover a generalized and high‐sensitivity immune prognostic signature that could stratify ESCA patients and predict their overall survival, and to discover potential therapeutic drugs by the ...

Proteomics Insights Into Lysosome Biogenesis and Maturation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Lysosomes constitute the main degradative organelle of most eukaryotic cells and are capable of breaking down a wide spectrum of biomolecules, including proteins, lipids, glycans, and DNA/RNA. They play crucial roles in the regulation of cellular homeostasis, acting as metabolic signaling centers for the correlation of nutrient availability ...

Calcium Dysregulation Promotes Glioma Progression by Inhibiting STAT3 Degradation Through Blocking Chaperone-Mediated Autophagy. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Calcium dysregulation is closely associated with cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Transient receptor potential canonical 1 (TRPC1) plays an essential role in regulating calcium homeostasis. However, the role of TRPC1 in calcium dysregulation in gliomas remains incompletely understood. In this study, we demonstrate that TRPC1

Effect of Anticancer Quinones on Reactive Oxygen Production by Adult Rat Heart Myocytes
This study investigated the effect of anthracycline antibiotics, mitomycin C, and menadione on oxygen consumption and hydrogen peroxide production by intact, beating, rat heart myocytes. Doxorubicin produced a dose‐dependent increase in the rate of cyanide‐resistant respiration by beating myocytes. The anthracycline analogs 4‐demethoxydaunorubicin, 4 ′‐
