Culture of mouse peritoneal macrophages with mouse serum induces lipid bodies that associate with the parasitophorous vacuole and decrease their microbicidal capacity against Toxoplasma gondii

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2014
Lipid bodies [lipid droplets (LBs)] are lipid-rich organelles involved in lipid metabolism, signalling and inflammation. Recent findings suggest a role for LBs in host response to infection; however, the potential functions of this organelle in ...

Regulation of microsomal prostaglandin E2 synthase by cyclopentenone prostaglandins in colon cancer cells [PDF]

, 2006
Prostaglandin E2 is the major prostaglandin involved in colorectal carcinogenesis. The biosynthesis of prostaglandin E2 is accomplished by several terminal prostaglandin E synthases through catalytical conversion of the cyclooxygenase product ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Research progress on the role of prostaglandins in atopic dermatitis

Pifu-xingbing zhenliaoxue zazhi
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease mediated by genetic, immune, and environmental factors. Prostaglandins (PGs), as critical lipid mediators, exert complex regulatory roles in AD.

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

Antinociceptive activity of the S1P-receptor agonist FTY720 [PDF]

, 2008
FTY720 is a novel immunosuppressive drug that inhibits the egress of lymphocytes from secondary lymphoid tissues and thymus. In its phosphorylated form FTY720 is a potent S1P receptor agonist.

Inhibition of cyclin‐dependent kinases 12/13 using CT7439 as a treatment for colorectal cancer with CDK12 upregulation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The proposed mechanism of action for the CDK12/13 inhibitor and cyclin K degrader, CT7439. CDK12/13 inhibition interrupts transcription elongation, leading to increased DNA damage that results in cell death. This agent is a potentially novel treatment option for patients with colorectal cancer. Created in BioRender. Cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK) 12 and

Cancer‐associated mutations in endometriosis reframe a benign disease through molecular oncology

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review aims to comprehensively analyse cancer‐associated somatic mutations (CAMs) present in endometriotic lesions, emphasizing their biological roles, spatial distribution and implications for translational applications in medicine. By contextualizing a benign state within a genomic framework, this analysis seeks to establish its value as a ...

Mechanisms of Decidual Dysfunction and Infertility in Endometriosis: Roles of Prostaglandins and SASP

Reproductive Medicine and Biology
Background Endometriosis is a challenging disease to treat and one of the leading causes of infertility. Impaired endometrial receptivity, and particularly inadequate decidualization of endometrial stromal cells (ESCs), is a crucial component.
