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

open access: yesMolecular 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 ...

Pathogen-induced protein secretion in plants.

open access: yes, 2008
The sugar alcohol mannitol is an important carbohydrate in many plants and fungi that has well-documented roles in both metabolism and osmoprotection. In addition, mannitol is an antioxidant, and as such might play a role in host-pathogen interactions ...

Protein translocation across mitochondrial membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Protein translocation across biological membranes is of fundamental importance for the biogenesis of organelles and in protein secretion. We will give an overview of the recent achievements in the understanding of protein translocation across ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular 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 ...

The ArfGEF GBF-1 Is Required for ER Structure, Secretion and Endocytic Transport in C. elegans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Small GTPases of the Sar/Arf family are essential to generate transport containers that mediate communication between organelles of the secretory pathway.

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

open access: yesMolecular 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 ...

The Dynamic ATP-Driven Mechanism of Bacterial Protein Translocation and the Critical Role of Phospholipids

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Protein secretion from the cell cytoplasm to the outside is essential for life. Bacteria do so for a range of membrane associated and extracellular activities, including envelope biogenesis, surface adherence, pathogenicity, and degradation of noxious ...

Somatostatin receptor 4 (SSTR4) is a tumor suppressor in cutaneous and head & neck squamous cell carcinomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

Dual mode of delivery of Mycoplasma pneumoniae CARDS toxin determines the toxin trafficking pathway and cytotoxicity in host cells

open access: yesmBio
Mycoplasma pneumoniae (Mp) causes both pulmonary and extrapulmonary infections in humans, and its virulence is largely attributed to the community-acquired respiratory distress syndrome (CARDS) toxin. CARDS toxin is transiently expressed during Mp growth

Evaluation of secretion prediction highlights differing approaches needed for oomycete and fungal effectors

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
The steadily increasing number of sequenced fungal and oomycete genomes has enabled detailed studies of how these eukaryotic microbes infect plants and cause devastating losses in food crops.
