From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Safety and hematologic impact of high-dose

open access: yesBlood Red Cells & Iron
: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by oxidative stress, erythrocyte dehydration, and endothelial activation, promoting vaso-occlusion through the expression of adhesion molecules, including von Willebrand factor (VWF), and the presence of rigid

Treatment with KCL‐286, a first‐in‐class retinoic acid receptor‐β (RARβ) agonist, ameliorates neuronal DNA damage and inflammation in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Repair of neuronal DNA damage in Alzheimer's disease by KCL‐286. (A) Amyloid‐β oligomers and plaques impair neuronal DNA repair pathways, leading to DNA double‐strand breaks and glial activation. (B) KCL‐286 activates RARβ/RXR signalling via retinoic acid response elements (RAREs), associated with increased BRCA1 expression, enhanced DNA repair and ...

Heme-induced metabolic stress mediates ferroptosis response in sickle erythroblasts

open access: yesBlood Red Cells & Iron
: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by chronic hemolysis and excess free heme, which drive oxidative stress, inflammation, and progressive organ damage.

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

Reflections on the dual nature of iron in life

open access: yesBlood Red Cells & Iron
: Iron is the elemental hinge on which biological existence turns. Earth’s early oceans offered life a ready chemistry of electron exchange; in oxygenated worlds it became both the engine and the hazard.

Production of hematopoietic cells from umbilical cord blood stem cells for transfusion purposes: Focus on ex vivo generation of red blood cells [PDF]

open access: yesScripta Medica, 2012
Cord blood contains a heterogeneous population of stem cells and progenitors and, in addition to transplantation these cells could be used also for ex vivo production of mature cells, as red blood cells (RBC).

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

Holographic cytometry assesses therapeutic effects in sickle cell disease

open access: yesBlood Red Cells & Iron
: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic blood disorder that causes red blood cells (RBCs) to become rigid and crescent-shaped when exposed to low oxygen tensions because of polymerization of variant hemoglobin S (HbS).

Identification and characterisation of calcitonin receptor isoforms expressed in glioblastoma derived glioma stem and U‐87 MG cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Glioblastoma cells express calcitonin receptor variants (CT receptor isoforms) that may help them survive stress. Using qPCR, transcript‐specific long‐read nanopore sequencing, immunofluorescence co‐localisation and comparative sequence analysis, this study identifies a novel alternatively spliced CALCR transcript that encodes the CTb receptor isoform ...
