A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

Moderate overexpression of wild‐type Met in hepatocytes (Alb‐R26Met mouse model) boosts a strong antioxidant response dependent on the glutathione system while impairing TGF‐β signaling in the liver. This leads to improved liver regeneration and protects against DDC‐induced injury, a model for cholestatic disease sharing features with primary ...

Hypoxia regulates Th17/Treg balance by altering chromatin accessibility and gene expression
T‐cell differentiation into Th17 or iTreg cells is key to inflammation control. Integrated RNA‐seq and ATAC‐seq analyses reveal that hypoxia induces more extensive gene expression changes in iTreg cells. Elevated levels of Hif1a and Stat3, along with increased accessibility to key transcription factor motifs, may predispose these cells toward ...

Regulation of PHOX2B gene expression by the long non‐coding natural antisense RNA PHOX2B‐AS1
PHOX2B is a transcription factor essential for autonomic nervous system development. We identify and characterize PHOX2B‐AS1, a human long non‐coding antisense transcript at the PHOX2B locus, along with its murine counterpart. Our findings reveal bidirectional transcription and reciprocal regulation: PHOX2B activates PHOX2B‐AS1, whereas PHOX2B‐AS1 ...

Lock, relax, load, and shoot: a molecular perspective on Nedd4 regulation
Structural basis of inactive and active states of the Nedd4 HECT E3 ligase subfamily, following a ‘lock, relax, load, and shoot’ mechanism. In the locked, autoinhibited state, intramolecular domain interactions restrain the HECT domain. Relaxation releases these restraints, allowing loading of ubiquitin onto the catalytic cysteine, followed by the ...
