Distinct functional relevance of dynamic GTPase cysteine methylation in fission yeast

Scientific Reports, 2017
The final step in post-translational processing of Ras and Rho GTPases involves methylation of the prenylated cysteine residue by an isoprenylcysteine-O-carboxyl methyltransferase (ICMT).

Harnessing the nonthermal effects of ultrasound for cancer treatment: From mechanisms to applications

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
Nonthermal ultrasound transforms acoustic energy into diverse therapeutic bioeffects through cavitation, mechanical stimulation, and physicochemical activation. This review discusses how acoustic parameters, biological mechanisms, and responsive materials interact to influence nonthermal ultrasound‐enabled cancer therapies. Mechanism‐guided engineering

Rôle de la GTPase RhoB dans la réponse aux dommages à l'ADN induits par la camptothécine [PDF]

, 2013
RhoB est une GTPase impliquée dans diverses fonctions intracellulaires comme l'organisation du cytosquelette. En plus de ses rôles bien établis, RhoB a récemment émergé comme un gène de réponse précoce aux dommages à l'ADN.

Multi‐Omics Analysis Reveals Coordinated Adaptations in Genes, Metabolism, and Gut Microbiota Underpinning Herbivory in Lordiphosa Flies

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Multi‐omics analysis reveals that herbivorous adaptation in Lordiphosa flies arises from coordinated interactions across the genome, transcriptome, and gut microbiota: genomic expansions of detoxification (e.g., cytochrome P450s) and carbohydrate metabolism gene families, transcriptomic upregulation of energy pathways like lipid oxidation and ...

β2-Chimaerin Deficiency Favors Polyp Growth in the Colon of Apc^Min/+ Mice

Molecules
A Rho-GTPases are pivotal regulators of key cellular processes implicated in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression, yet the roles of their regulatory proteins, particularly GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs), remain poorly understood.

Emollient Formulations and Skin Barrier Practices in the Context of Eczema and Food Allergy Prevention

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The skin is far from a passive shield; it functions as a dynamic “living barrier” whose structural and immunological integrity is paramount in preventing atopic dermatitis (AD) and the subsequent progression of the atopic march toward food allergy (FA).

Mepolizumab Modifies Blood Eosinophil Proteome and Transcriptome in Severe Eosinophilic Asthma

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study investigates the effect of mepolizumab on the proteomic and transcriptomic profile of blood eosinophils in SEA patients. Mepolizumab reduces the migratory capacity and effector‐related molecular signatures of circulating eosinophils in SEA patients.

Non‐canonical PKG1 regulation in cardiovascular health and disease

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
It is well established that the cyclic GMP‐dependent protein kinase I (PKG1) is canonically activated by cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), enabling its regulation of vascular tone, cardiac function and smooth muscle homeostasis. However, diverse non‐canonical stimuli of PKG1 have also been identified.
