Molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying gyrate atrophy: Why is the retina primarily affected?
Abstract Gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina (GACR; OMIM #258870) is a rare early‐onset autosomal recessive disorder, caused by bi‐allelic pathogenic variants in the gene coding for ornithine aminotransferase (OAT) resulting in hyperornithinaemia.

Multiple myeloma (MM) with chromosome 1q21 gain/amplification (1q+) has been reported to respond poorly to daratumumab, a human monoclonal antibody targeting CD38. Our findings revealed significantly lower CD38 expression in patients with 1q+ MM than in those with 1q wild type (WT) MM.

HSV‐1 infection alters MAPT splicing and promotes Tau pathology in neural models of Alzheimer's disease. HSV‐1 infection in brain organoids and neuronal models increase 4R‐MAPT splicing and Tau hyperphosphorylation. HSV‐1 ICP27 is both necessary and sufficient for inducing these changes highlighting the potential role of HSV‐1 in Alzheimer's disease ...

The dark sides of the GPCR tree ‐ research progress on understudied GPCRs
Abstract A large portion of the human GPCRome is still in the dark and understudied, consisting even of entire subfamilies of GPCRs such as odorant receptors, class A and C orphans, adhesion GPCRs, Frizzleds and taste receptors. However, it is undeniable that these GPCRs bring an untapped therapeutic potential that should be explored further.

G protein‐coupled receptor‐mediated autophagy in health and disease
G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute the largest and most diverse superfamily of mammalian transmembrane proteins. These receptors are involved in a wide range of physiological functions and are targets for more than a third of available drugs in the market. Autophagy is a cellular process involved in degrading damaged proteins and organelles
