A nucleotide‐independent, pan‐RAS‐targeted DARPin elicits anti‐tumor activity in a multimodal manner
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We report a Designed Ankyrin Repeat Protein that binds and inhibits RAS proteins, which serve as central cell signaling hubs and are essential for the progression of many cancers. Its unique feature is that it does not discriminate between different RAS isoforms or mutations and is capable of binding to RAS in both its active (GTP‐bound) and inactive ...

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013 Barth syndrome is a complex metabolic disorder caused by mutations in the mitochondrial transacylase tafazzin. Recently, an inducible tafazzin shRNA knockdown mouse model was generated to deconvolute the complex bioenergetic phenotype of this disease. To

CD9‐association with PIP2 areas is regulated by a CD9 salt bridge
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The tetraspanin CD9 has an intracellular salt bridge. If CD9 opens, open‐CD9 moves from PIP2‐rich areas to regions populated by its interaction partner EWI‐2. Hence, the state of the salt bridge regulates the distribution of CD9 and by this CD9‐EWI‐2 complex formation.

Plant phospholipid signaling: “in a nutshell”
Journal of Lipid Research, 2009 Since the discovery of the phosphoinositide/phospholipase C (PI/PLC) system in animal systems, we know that phospholipids are much more then just structural components of biological membranes.

A putative lipase affects Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm matrix production
mSphere, 2023 Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that is widely known for infecting patients with underlying conditions. This species often survives antibiotic therapy by forming biofilms, in which the cells produce a protective extracellular matrix ...

The cochaperone BAG3 promotes the stabilization of p53 under heat stress conditions
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Under heat stress, BAG3 translocates to the nucleus and forms a complex with Hsp70 and p53, thereby promoting p53 stabilization and enhancing its transcriptional activity. These findings suggest that BAG3 functions as a cochaperone that supports p53‐mediated stress responses in cooperation with Hsp70.

Insulin Action on Polyunsaturated Phosphatidic Acid Formation in Rat Brain: An “In Vitro” Model with Synaptic Endings from Cerebral Cortex and Hippocampus [PDF]
, 2009 The highly efficient formation of phosphatidic acid from exogenous 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol (SAG) in rat brain synaptic nerve endings (synaptosomes) from cerebral cortex and hippocampus is reported.

Phosphatidic Acid (PA)-preferring Phospholipase A1 Regulates Mitochondrial Dynamics*
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2014 Background: Phosphatidic acid (PA) is involved in membrane dynamics. Results: PA-preferring phospholipase A1 (PA-PLA1) affects mitochondrial morphology in an activity-dependent manner.

Intersection Between Local Anesthetics and Cancer Biology: What Now? Where Are We Going?
Advanced Biology, EarlyView.Local anesthetics (LAs), widely used in anesthesia, may also play a role in cancer treatment by inhibiting tumor growth, reducing metastasis, and enhancing immune responses. They modulate key pathways like AKT/mTOR and RAS/ERK while affecting angiogenesis and tumor innervation and the immune response.
