Molecular Insight into the Therapeutic Promise of Flavonoids against Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the utmost chronic neurodegenerative disorders, which is characterized from a neuropathological point of view by the aggregates of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides that are deposited as senile plaques and tau ...

mTOR signaling in tumorigenesis [PDF]

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Reviews on Cancer, 2014
mTOR (the mechanistic target of rapamycin) is an atypical serine/threonine kinase involved in regulating major cellular functions including growth and proliferation. Deregulation of the mTOR signaling pathway is one of the most commonly observed pathological alterations in human cancers.

adaptive capabilities of the pi3k/akt/mtor pathway in acute myeloid leukemia revealed by the use of selective inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Because of its aberrant activation, the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway represents a pharmacological target in blast cells from patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Response of metastatic mouse invasive lobular carcinoma to mTOR inhibition is partly mediated by the adaptive immune system

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2020
Effective treatment of invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) of the breast is hampered by late detection, invasive growth, distant metastasis, and poor response to chemotherapy.

Cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury: from public health perspectives to mechanisms

open access: yesFolia Neuropathologica, 2022
Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury has emerged as an intricate mechanism. However, identification of wide-ranging mechanisms which mechanistically regulate reperfusion injuries have significantly improved our understanding.

Dissecting the role of mTOR: Lessons from mTOR inhibitors

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Proteins and Proteomics, 2010
Recent years have observed significant advances in our understanding of how the serine/threonine kinase target of rapamycin (TOR) controls key cellular processes such as cell survival, growth and proliferation. Consistent with its role in cell proliferation, the mTOR pathway is frequently hyperactivated in a number of human malignancies and is thus ...

Autophagy and mitophagy in pancreatic β‐cell homeostasis and their involvement in diabetes pathophysiology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review focuses on the role of autophagy and mitophagy in maintaining pancreatic β‐cell function and homeostasis. We discuss how genetic defects affecting these pathways contribute to the development of type 1, type 2, monogenic, and gestational diabetes. We further explore their potential as therapeutic targets. Created in BioRender.

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 ...

Combined physical activity in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases: from physiological to molecular adaptation mechanisms

open access: yesКлиническая практика
Physical activity is recognized as the most important non-medicinal tool for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, however, the highest efficiency is demonstrated by the programs combining various types of physical load.
