Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

GLP-1 receptor agonist therapy and pregnancy: Evolving and emerging evidence

Clinical Medicine
The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity is increasing in young adults, posing significant risks around pregnancy. Obesity also impacts on fertility and the co-existence of polycystic ovarian syndrome increases the prevalence of ...

Age-related loss of skeletal muscle function; impairment of gene expression. [PDF]

, 2004
Mechano Growth Factor (MGF) is derived from the insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) but its sequence differs from the systemic IGF-I produced by the liver. MGF is expressed by mechanically overloaded muscle and is involved in tissue repair and adaptation.

Compartmentalisation and localisation of the translation initiation factor (eIF) 4F complex in normally growing fibroblasts [PDF]

, 2006
Previous observations of association of mRNAs and ribosomes with subcellular structures highlight the importance of localised translation. However, little is known regarding associations between eukaryotic translation initiation factors and cellular ...

Mechanism of protein synthesis inhibition by vaccinia viral core and reversal of this inhibition by reticulocyte peptide chain initiation factors

Journal of Biosciences, 1987
Vaccinia viral core inhibits protein synthesis in heme-supplemented reticulocyte lysate. A reticulocyte cell suPernatant factor, which reversed Protein synthesis inhibition in heme-deficient reticulocyte lysate also reversed vaccinia viral core induced Protein synthesis inhibition in heme-suPPlemented reticulocyte lysate.

Dammarenediol II enhances etoposide‐induced apoptosis by targeting O‐GlcNAc transferase and Akt/GSK3β/mTOR signaling in liver cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Etoposide induces DNA damage, activating p53‐dependent apoptosis via caspase‐3/7, which cleaves PARP1. Dammarenediol II enhances this apoptotic pathway by suppressing O‐GlcNAc transferase activity, further decreasing O‐GlcNAcylation. The reduction in O‐GlcNAc levels boosts p53‐driven apoptosis and influences the Akt/GSK3β/mTOR signaling pathway ...

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

Molecular 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 ...

Surface-anchored monomeric agonist pMHCs alone trigger TCR with high sensitivity.

PLoS Biology, 2008
At the interface between T cell and antigen-presenting cell (APC), peptide antigen presented by MHC (pMHC) binds to the T cell receptor (TCR) and initiates signaling. The mechanism of TCR signal initiation, or triggering, remains unclear.

Change in Nutritional Status Modulates the Abundance of Critical Pre-initiation Intermediate Complexes During Translation Initiation \u3cem\u3ein Vivo\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]

, 2007
In eukaryotic translation initiation, eIF2∙GTP–Met-tRNAiMet ternary complex (TC) interacts with eIF3–eIF1–eIF5 complex to form the multifactor complex (MFC), while eIF2∙GDP associates with eIF2B for guanine nucleotide exchange.

Antibody against α-gliadin 33-mer peptide: Is the key initiating factor for development of multiple sclerosis during gluten sensitivity?

Journal of Medical Hypotheses and Ideas, 2015
AbstractDespite great advances in clarifying the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS), the exact underlying mechanism has not been definitely established. However, the responsibility of cross-reactive antibodies as the initiating factor in MS pathogenesis is a novel idea.
