WFS1 Deficiency Impairs PIAS4‐Associated SUMOylation and Increases Ubiquitin‐Mediated Spermatogenesis‐Related Protein Degradation Leading to Testicular Male Infertility

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The findings establish a critical role for WFS1 in human male fertility. Mechanistically, WFS1 interacts with PIAS4 to promote the SUMOylation of key spermatogenesis‐associated proteins, which in turn competitively inhibits their K48‐linked ubiquitin‐mediated degradation during spermatogenesis.

Monitoring pharmacodynamic and molecular drug targets in liquid biopsy: Exploratory study in liver cancer with modelling of EGFR Receptor engagement

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Liquid biopsy is minimally invasive (compared with tissue biopsy) and has previously been used to generate systems data regarding drug elimination via hepatic enzymes and transporters. This study extends quantitative assessment of systems parameters in liquid biopsy to pharmacodynamic (PD) and disease markers relevant to cancer development
