The mTORC1 Signaling Network Senses Changes in Cellular Purine Nucleotide Levels

Cell Reports, 2017
Summary: Mechanistic (or mammalian) target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) integrates signals from growth factors and nutrients to control biosynthetic processes, including protein, lipid, and nucleic acid synthesis.

T cell plasticity in systemic lupus erythematosus revealed by large‐scale T cell receptor repertoire and transcriptome studies

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective We aimed to characterize CD4+ T cell plasticity in human SLE by leveraging TCR repertoire features as markers of prior lineage states, integrating TCR and transcriptomic profiling to delineate plasticity patterns and evaluate their association with clinical disease activity.

Mechanistic Target of Rapamycin Complex 1 Signaling Modulates Vascular Endothelial Function Through Reactive Oxygen Species

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is an important intracellular energy sensor that regulates gene expression and protein synthesis through its downstream signaling components, the S6‐kinase and the ribosomal S6 protein ...

Serotonin 5‐HT7 receptor signaling in neuropsychiatric disorders

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
5‐HT7R recruits Gs, G12, and β‐arrestin signaling to regulate neuronal plasticity, circuit function, and kinase‐linked intracellular responses. This review summarizes how these pathway‐selective modules contribute to autism spectrum disorder, depression, and schizophrenia, highlighting 5‐HT7R as a pathway‐informed therapeutic target. Abstract Serotonin

Harnessing ferroptosis from multilayer defense networks to nanoplatforms for specific cancer therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Nanomaterials target metabolically‐regulated ferroptosis for cancer therapy. Iron‐based or alternative nanoplatforms integrate ferroptosis with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy. They enable stimulus‐responsive therapies (photothermal, photodynamic, sonodynamic) activated by near‐infrared, light, or ultrasound, achieving potent synergistic ...

Novel Organelle‐Based Intracellular Immunity With Mechanistic and Therapeutic Implications

Barrier Immunity, EarlyView.
A conceptual framework illustrating how PAMPs/DAMPs initiate barrier, innate, adaptive, and intracellular immune responses, with organelle‐based intracellular immunity serving as a central integrator linking metabolism, inflammatory signaling, and therapeutic interventions to restore immune homeostasis.

Pathogenic hyperactivation of mTORC1 by cytoplasmic EP300 in Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome

Cell Stress
In a recent issue in Nature Cell Biology, Sung Min Son et al. unveil a novel layer in the regulation of the mTORC1/autophagy axis by EP300 which can undergo nucleocytoplasmic shuttling in response to alterations in nutrient availability.

Reprogramming glioblastoma multiforme cells into neurons by protein kinase inhibitors [PDF]

, 2018
Background Reprogramming of cancers into normal-like tissues is an innovative strategy for cancer treatment. Recent reports demonstrate that defined factors can reprogram cancer cells into pluripotent stem cells. Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most
