Function of glutathione peroxidases in legume root nodules
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2015 Highlight Glutathione peroxidases are antioxidant enzymes localized to different cell compartments, including the nucleus. Transcriptional and post-translational regulation via S-nitrosylation strongly suggest functions in hormonal cascades and nitric ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study simultaneously investigated circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and exosomes from small‐cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients. The elevated expression of JUNB and CXCR4 in CTCs was a poor prognostic factor for SCLC patients, whereas exosomal overexpression of these biomarkers revealed a high discrimination ability of patients from healthy individuals,

Novel enzymes for biodegradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons: metagenomics-linked identification followed by functional analysis [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are highly toxic, carcinogenic substances. On soils contaminated with PAHs, crop cultivation, animal husbandry and even the survival of microflora in the soil are greatly perturbed, depending on the degree of contamination.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.MET variants in the N‐lobe of the kinase domain, found in hereditary papillary renal cell carcinoma, require ligand stimulation to promote cell transformation, in contrast to other RTK variants. This suggests that HGF expression in the microenvironment is important for tumor growth in such patients. Their sensitivity to MET inhibitors opens the way for

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The complex mode of action of the topoisomerase II inhibitor etoposide in triggering apoptosis involves several mechanisms: overexpression of the mitochondrial protein VDAC1, leading to its oligomerization and formation of a large channel that mediates the release of pro‐apoptotic protein; and overexpression of the apoptosis regulators p53, Bax, and ...
