Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter Drives Chemoresistance in Pancreatic Cancer via Glutathione‐Mediated Stemness Maintenance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
PDAC has a poor prognosis due to chemoresistance. We revealed that MCU upregulation is associated with chemoresistance and stemness in PDAC. MCU‐mediated Ca2+ influx induced ER stress, activating the PERK‐ATF4/NRF2 axis to enhance PSAT1/SLC711 expression and glutathione synthesis, reducing ROS and maintaining stemness.

Neuroactive probiotics

open access: yesBioEssays, 2011
Microbial biofilms constitute a major reason for infections to occur and persist at various sites in the human body, especially in association with medical devices. The organisms invariably form these biofilms on surfaces which have host proteins and other substances coating them.
