Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) regulates trophoblast syncytialization through organelle stress–induced cellular senescence

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The inhibition of mitochondrial dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) impairs syncytialization and induces cellular senescence via mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum stress in human trophoblast stem cells, elevating sFlt1/PlGF levels, a hallmark of placental dysfunction in hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.

Targeting Sigma-1 and Sigma-2 Receptors in Neuropathic Pain: Pharmacology, Ligand Development, and Translational Progress

Brain Sciences
Background: Neuropathic pain remains a major unmet clinical challenge. Growing evidence identifies sigma receptors (σRs) as pivotal intracellular modulators of maladaptive stress signaling, positioning them as promising non-opioid targets for chronic ...

Sigma receptor ligands

, 2012
Sigma receptoren (subtypes sigma-1 en sigma-2) zijn unieke bindingsplaatsen die een aanzienlijk hogere expressie vertonen in kanker dan in gezond weefsel. Hoewel de endogene agonisten niet met zekerheid geïdentificeerd werden, zijn vele kunstmatige liganden beschikbaar voor onderzoek van de normale en pathofysiologische functie van sigma receptoren ...

PARP inhibitors induce a senescence phenotype in non‐small cell lung carcinoma cell lines

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Talazoparib is the most potent inducer of senescence among different PARP1 inhibitors in human NSCLC cells. In the absence of PARP, no senescence phenotype was observed, demonstrating that PARP1 is necessary for the induction of senescence by this inhibitor.

Role of transferrin, transferrin receptors, and iron in macrophage listericidal activity. [PDF]

, 1991
It is not yet known what properties distinguish macrophages which can kill facultative intracellular bacteria, such as Listeria monocytogenes, from those which cannot.

Chameleon sequences reveal structural effects in proteins representing micelle‐like distribution of hydrophobicity

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Amino acids sequence of two different proteins with the same sequence (chameleon sequence—black boxes) represent in 3D structure of the proteins different secondary structures: HHHH—helical and BBB—Beta‐structural. The chains folded in water environment adopt different III‐order structures in which the chameleon fragments appear to adopt similar status

Exon 7 splicing of ERα predicts poor prognosis and increases phenotypic heterogeneity in luminal a subtype breast cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ERα splice variant ERα∆7 lacks the C‐terminus, and its expression may change phenotypes of breast cancers. Our results showed that ERα∆7 is found in the luminal A subtype, and elevated ERα∆7 levels are linked to improved cell survival with lower proliferation and migration.

Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 regulates cell adhesion and membrane protrusive activity of ovarian cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP9) drives ovarian cancer progression. Using MMP9‐null cells (M9‐KO) created from ovarian cancer cells, we found MMP9 loss did not block Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)‐driven E‐cadherin dissolution or EMT but delayed and reduced EGF‐driven membrane protrusions. Transient MMP9 re‐expression drove membrane protrusion.

Neurosteroids Progesterone and Dehydroepiandrosterone: Molecular Mechanisms of Action in Neuroprotection and Neuroinflammation

Pharmaceuticals
Neurosteroids pregnenolone, progesterone, allopregnanolone, and dehydroepiandrosterone have been actively studied in the last years as candidates for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and postinjury rehabilitation.
