Regulation of podocyte survival and endoplasmic reticulum stress by fatty acids and its modification by Stearoyl-CoA desaturases and cyclic AMP [PDF]

, 2011
Podocyte apoptosis is a hallmark in the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Several factors of the diabetic milieu are known to induce podocyte apoptosis. Currently, the role of free fatty acids (FFAs) for podocytopathy and podocyte

Hypoxia in the Initiation and Progression of Neuroblastoma Tumours [PDF]

, 2020
Neuroblastoma is the most frequent extracranial solid tumour in children, causing 10% of all paediatric oncology deaths. It arises in the embryonic neural crest due to an uncontrolled behaviour of sympathetic nervous system progenitors, giving rise to ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) protein protects against caspase activation and tissue loss after neonatal hypoxia–ischemia

Neurobiology of Disease, 2004
Nine-day-old transgenic XIAP overexpressing (TG-XIAP) and wild-type mice were subjected to left carotid artery ligation and 10% O2 for 60 min, leading to widespread infarctions in the ipsilateral hemisphere during reperfusion. The activation of caspase-3

Inhibiting stearoyl‐CoA desaturase suppresses bone metastatic prostate cancer by modulating cellular stress, mTOR signaling, and DNA damage response

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bone metastasis in prostate cancer (PCa) patients is a clinical hurdle due to the poor understanding of the supportive bone microenvironment. Here, we identify stearoyl‐CoA desaturase (SCD) as a tumor‐promoting enzyme and potential therapeutic target in bone metastatic PCa.

Challenges of drug resistance in the management of pancreatic cancer [PDF]

, 2010
The current treatment of choice for metastatic pancreatic cancer involves single agent gemcitabine or combination of gemcitabine with capecitabine and erlotinib (tyrosine kinase inhibitor).

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Electroacupuncture at the Dazhui and Baihui acupoints and different frequencies (10 and 50 Hz) protects against apoptosis by up-regulating ERK1/2-mediated signaling in rats after global cerebral ischemia [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences
Objective(s): This study assessed the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) stimulation at different frequencies at the Dazhui and Baihui acupoints in the subacute phase after transient global cerebral ischemia (GCI).

Plasma extrachromosomal circular DNA as a biomarker in EGFR‐targeted therapy of non‐small cell lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Detection of extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) in plasma samples from EGFR‐mutated non‐small cell lung cancer patients. Plasma was collected before and during treatment with the EGFR‐tyrosine kinase inhibitor osimertinib. Plasma eccDNA was detected in all cancer samples, and the presence of the EGFR gene on eccDNA serves as a potential biomarker ...

Targeting inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAPs) with IAP inhibitors sensitises malignant rhabdoid tumour cells to cisplatin

Cancer Treatment and Research Communications, 2022
Malignant rhabdoid tumour (MRT) is a rare, aggressive paediatric malignancy most commonly diagnosed in those below the age of three. MRTs can arise in soft tissue but are more often associated with the central nervous system or kidney. Unfortunately, the
