Class IIa HDACs forced degradation allows resensitization of oxaliplatin‐resistant FBXW7‐mutated colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
HDAC4 is degraded by the E3 ligase FBXW7. In colorectal cancer, FBXW7 mutations prevent HDAC4 degradation, leading to oxaliplatin resistance. Forced degradation of HDAC4 using a PROTAC compound restores drug sensitivity by resetting the super‐enhancer landscape, reprogramming the epigenetic state of FBXW7‐mutated cells to resemble oxaliplatin ...

Nuclear receptors as novel regulators that modulate cancer radiosensitivity and normal tissue radiotoxicity

Molecular Cancer
Nuclear receptors (NRs) are a superfamily of transcription factors that are involved in various pathophysiological processes. The human genome contains 48 types of nuclear receptors, including steroid hormone receptors (e.g., estrogen receptor [ER] and ...

Immunomodulatory effects of curcumin on receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand in periodontitis

Mediterranean Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the tooth-supporting structures, often causing alveolar bone loss due to increased osteoclast activity mediated by receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand.

RORγ is a targetable master regulator of cholesterol biosynthesis in a cancer subtype. [PDF]

, 2019
Tumor subtype-specific metabolic reprogrammers could serve as targets of therapeutic intervention. Here we show that triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) exhibits a hyper-activated cholesterol-biosynthesis program that is strongly linked to nuclear ...

Dynamics of Nuclear Receptors [PDF]

Structure, 2010
The dynamic properties of VDR LBD and full-length VDR/RXRα heterodimer in the presence and absence of ligands were investigated by hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (Zhang et al., 2010a). The results beautifully complement X-ray crystal structure data.

In vitro models of cancer‐associated fibroblast heterogeneity uncover subtype‐specific effects of CRISPR perturbations

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

Predominant Role of Nuclear Versus Membrane Estrogen Receptor α in Arterial Protection: Implications for Estrogen Receptor α Modulation in Cardiovascular Prevention/Safety

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Although estrogen receptor α (ERα) acts primarily as a transcription factor, it can also elicit membrane‐initiated steroid signaling. Pharmacological tools and transgenic mouse models previously highlighted the key role of ERα membrane ...

Molecular characterisation of human penile carcinoma and generation of paired epithelial primary cell lines

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Generation of two normal and tumour (cancerous) paired human cell lines using an established tissue culture technique and their characterisation is described. Cell lines were characterised at cellular, protein, chromosome and gene expression levels and for HPV status.

Roles of distinct nuclear receptors in diabetic cardiomyopathy

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Diabetes mellitus induces a pathophysiological disorder known as diabetic cardiomyopathy and may eventually cause heart failure. Diabetic cardiomyopathy is manifested with systolic and diastolic contractile dysfunction along with alterations in unique ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Transcription Activation by Juvenile Hormone: A Critical Role for bHLH-PAS and Nuclear Receptor Proteins

Insects, 2012
Juvenile hormone (JH) is responsible for controlling many biological processes. In several insect species JH has been implicated as a key regulator of developmental timing, preventing the premature onset of metamorphosis during larval growth periods ...
