Transient acceleration of autophagic degradation by pharmacological Nrf2 activation is important for retinal pigment epithelium cell survival

Redox Biology, 2018
Non-exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is mainly caused by the accumulation of lipofuscin and drusen on the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).

Targeting KRAS for cancer therapy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
In recent years, therapeutics targeted against KRAS proto‐oncogene GTPase (KRAS)‐mutant cancers have seen significant progress. Herein we outline the biology and epidemiology of KRAS alterations at the lineage and allele levels, reviewing the clinical evidence for KRASG12C inhibition from the discovery of the recessive switch pocket to sotorasib ...

Mitochondrial transfer in acute myeloid leukaemia and multiple myeloma: Mechanisms, consequences and potential therapeutic opportunities

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Mitochondria can be transferred from bone marrow cells to cancer cells in acute myeloid leukaemia and multiple myeloma, boosting tumour energy production, growth, and drug resistance. This review highlights key transfer mechanisms and shows how targeting mitochondrial movement and dynamics may offer new therapeutic strategies to limit cancer ...

Biomarkers Correlating With the Development of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma From Leukoplakia

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background We assessed protein biomarkers expressed in oral leukoplakia (OL) that are associated with the risk of transformation into oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Methods Tissue sections of OL transforming into OSCC (leuko‐ca), the corresponding OSCC and OL that did not progress to OSCC (leuko‐nonca) were analyzed with global relative ...

One day of environment‐induced heat stress causes injury to the murine kidney

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Environment‐induced heat stress (EIHS) results from sustained body temperature elevation owing to prolonged exposure to heat and humidity. We hypothesized that EIHS would cause kidney injury and cellular dysfunction. To test this hypothesis, female C57 mice were exposed to EIHS (n = 14; 37.6°C, 42.0% relative humidity) or thermoneutral (TN ...

Dynamics of the degradation of ubiquitinated proteins by proteasomes and autophagy: association with sequestosome 1/p62.

The Journal of biological chemistry, 2011
Proteotoxicity resulting from accumulation of damaged/unwanted proteins contributes prominently to cellular aging and neurodegeneration. Proteasomal removal of these proteins upon covalent polyubiquitination is highly regulated. Recent reports proposed a role for autophagy in clearance of diffuse ubiquitinated proteins delivered by p62/SQSTM1. Here, we

Cinnamaldehyde From Cinnamon as a Food‐Derived Bioactive: Phytochemistry, Anticancer Mechanisms, Bioavailability, Nanoformulation and Safety

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 5, September 2026.
Cinnamaldehyde derived from Cinnamomum species exerts multitarget anticancer effects by promoting oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, apoptosis, cell‐cycle arrest, autophagy, and epigenetic changes, and by suppressing mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK), phosphoinositide 3‐kinase/protein kinase B/mechanistic target of rapamycin (PI3K/Akt ...

Autophagy and selective autophagy receptors: Key players against Alzheimer’s disease

Neural Regeneration Research
The devastating neurodegenerative disorder of Alzheimer’s disease hallmarks the presence of protein aggregates known as amyloid-β plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, composed of amyloid-β peptides and aberrantly phosphorylated Tau protein, respectively.

Cell Death in Neurodegenerative Diseases: Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targets

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
Regulated cell death pathways, including apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and autophagy‐dependent cell death, interact with mitochondrial dysfunction, proteostasis failure, lysosomal stress, glial remodeling, and neuroinflammation across major neurodegenerative diseases.
