Autophagy Inhibition by Fangji Huangqi Decoction Enhances Tumor Immunogenicity and Potentiates PD‐1 Blockade

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
In tumor cells, MHC‐I is typically degraded through autophagy, leading to reduced antigen presentation. However, Fangji Huangqi Decoction (FJHQ), acting as an autophagy inhibitor, suppresses lysosomal acidification, which in turn inhibits the degradation of MHC‐I. This results in increased surface expression of MHC‐I on tumor cells.

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 ...

Sequestosome-1/p62 Is the Key Intracellular Target of Innate Defense Regulator Peptide [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
Innate defense regulator-1 (IDR-1) is a synthetic peptide with no antimicrobial activity that enhances microbial infection control while suppressing inflammation. Previously, the effects of IDR-1 were postulated to impact several regulatory pathways including mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) p38 and CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein, but how this ...

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 ...

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).

Endoplasmic reticulum stress and the unfolded protein response in lung diseases: molecular pathways and therapeutic interventions

The Journal of Pathology, Volume 269, Issue 3, Page 268-283, July 2026.
Abstract Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) occurs when the protein‐folding capacity of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is overwhelmed, triggering the unfolded protein response (UPR) to restore homeostasis. However, severe or persistent ERS can shift the UPR toward pro‐inflammatory, apoptotic, and fibrotic signaling, thereby exacerbating tissue injury ...

Signaling, Polyubiquitination, Trafficking, and Inclusions: Sequestosome 1/p62′s Role in Neurodegenerative Disease [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2006
Aggregated misfolded proteins are hallmarks of most neurodegenerative diseases. In a chronic disease state, including pathologic situations of oxidative stress, these proteins are sequestered into inclusions. Accumulation of aggregated proteins can be prevented by chaperones, or by targeting their degradation to the UPS.

Airway epithelial cells exposed to wildfire smoke extract exhibit dysregulated autophagy and barrier dysfunction consistent with COPD

Respiratory Research, 2018
Background Individuals with respiratory disease are being increasingly exposed to wildfire smoke as populations encroach further into forested regions and climate change continues to bring higher temperatures with lower rainfall.

Multiaxial Biophysical Control of Oncogenic Phase Separation by Indoleamines: A Proof‐of‐Concept Synthesis of Landscape‐Level Regulation

Journal of Pineal Research, Volume 78, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Oncogenic condensates act as biophysical sanctuaries that stabilize malignant survival programs. However, a universal regulator capable of orchestrating the integrated biophysical axes governing cellular phase behavior has remained elusive.
