The Mitochondrial Chaperone Protein TRAP1 Mitigates α-Synuclein Toxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Overexpression or mutation of alpha-Synuclein is associated with protein aggregation and interferes with a number of cellular processes, including mitochondrial integrity and function.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

An auxiliary diagnostic strategy for distinguishing Guillain–Barré syndrome and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy: combining platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio and cerebrospinal fluid interleukin-8 levels

open access: yesBMC Neurology
Background Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS) and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) are immune-mediated neuropathies with overlapping clinical and electrophysiological features but distinct treatment strategies.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

MITOCHONDRIAL DNA POLYMORPHISMS AND FERTILITY IN BEEF CATTLE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Two regions of mitochondrial DNA, D-loop and ND-5 were characterized using polymerase chain reaction – restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) involving 422 beef cattle of Hereford and composite breeds from Wokalup’s ...

Structural-functional network decoupling in early stage amyotrophic lateral sclerosis reveals cell-type specific transcriptional signatures

open access: yesBMC Medicine
Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) involves widespread brain network dysfunction, yet the molecular mechanisms linked to these alterations remain poorly understood.

Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line (INNDSUi007-A) from a patient with Kennedy disease

open access: yesStem Cell Research
Abnormal trinucleotide CAG repeat expansions in exon 1 of the Androgen Receptor (AR) gene has been identified as the cause of Kennedy disease (KD). We generated and characterized a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line from peripheral blood ...

Effects of oxidative stress on hepatic encephalopathy pathogenesis in mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE), but the mechanism remains unclear. GABAergic neurons in substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) contribute to the motor deficit of HE.

Oncogenic DMTF1β promotes cancer cell motility by regulating autophagy through ULK1 stabilization

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the current study, we demonstrate that the oncogene DMTF1β regulates ULK1 stability by reducing its proteasomal degradation in cancer cells. This stabilization enables ULK1 to induce autophagy, which in turn facilitates cancer cell migration. Consequently, reduced DMTF1β levels lead to decreased autophagy and impaired cancer cell migration.
