Clock gene dysregulation in epilepsy: A systematic review

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epileptic seizures show a rhythmic pattern, being more frequent at particular times of the day (e.g., only occurring during sleep), suggesting a role of the circadian rhythm. Clock genes regulate the circadian rhythm and might be involved in the pathophysiology of epilepsy.

Evaluation of Hsp90 and mTOR inhibitors as potential drugs for the treatment of TSC1/TSC2 deficient cancer.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Inactivating mutations in either TSC1 or TSC2 cause Tuberous Sclerosis Complex, an autosomal dominant disorder, characterized by multi-system tumor and hamartoma development.

Mutation of the co-chaperone Tsc1 in bladder cancer diminishes Hsp90 acetylation and reduces drug sensitivity and selectivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The molecular chaperone Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is essential for the folding, stability, and activity of several drivers of oncogenesis. Hsp90 inhibitors are currently under clinical evaluation for cancer treatment, however their efficacy is ...

Experimental Control and Characterization of Autophagy in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Insects such as the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, which fundamentally reorganize their body plan during metamorphosis, make extensive use of autophagy for their normal development and physiology.

Youngest known case of a pancreatic perivascular epithelioid cell tumor

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are a rare type of mesenchymal tumor that can arise in any part of the body. As of 2024, 37 cases of pancreatic PEComas had been reported in the literature with patients ranging in age from 17 to 74 years old.

TSC2 mediates hyperosmotic stress-induced inactivation of mTORC1 [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2015
AbstractmTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) regulates cell growth and metabolism. mTORC1 activity is regulated via integration of positive growth-promoting stimuli and negative stress stimuli. One stress cells confront in physiological and pathophysiological contexts is hyperosmotic stress.

mTOR-related neuropathology in mutant tsc2 zebrafish: Phenotypic, transcriptomic and pharmacological analysis

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2017
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare, genetic disease caused by loss-of-function mutations in either TSC1 or TSC2. Patients with TSC are neurologically characterized by the presence of abnormal brain structure, intractable epilepsy and TSC ...

TSC2 S1365A mutation potently regulates CD8+ T cell function and differentiation and improves adoptive cellular cancer therapy

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2023
MTORC1 integrates signaling from the immune microenvironment to regulate T cell activation, differentiation, and function. TSC2 in the tuberous sclerosis complex tightly regulates mTORC1 activation.

Yield of Whole Genome Sequencing for Pathogenic Single Nucleotide Variants in Congenital Heart Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic yield of pathogenic or likely pathogenic (P/LP) single nucleotide variants (SNVs) using whole genome sequencing (WGS) in congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods A systematic search of three databases (2000–2024) was conducted, and two reviewers independently ...

Chemical Biology Screening Identifies a Vulnerability to Checkpoint Kinase Inhibitors in TSC2-Deficient Renal Angiomyolipomas

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
The tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare genetic syndrome and multisystem disease resulting in tumor formation in major organs. A molecular hallmark of TSC is a dysregulation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) through loss-of-function ...
