Distinct Levels of Reactive Oxygen Species Coordinate Metabolic Activity with Beta-cell Mass Plasticity.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-06-26)
The pancreatic beta-cells control glucose homeostasis by secreting insulin in response to nutrient intake. The number of beta-cells is under tight metabolic control, as this number increases with higher nutrient intake. ...
DNA-PKcs is required for cGAS/STING-dependent viral DNA sensing in human cells.
(CELL PRESS, 2024-01-19)
To mount an efficient interferon response to virus infection, intracellular pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) sense viral nucleic acids and activate anti-viral gene transcription. The mechanisms by which intracellular ...
AKT-mTOR signaling modulates the dynamics of IRE1 RNAse activity by regulating ER-mitochondria contacts.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-11-28)
Inositol Requiring Enzyme-1 (IRE1) is the most conserved transducer of the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR), a surveillance mechanism that ensures homeostasis of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in eukaryotes. IRE1 activation ...
Developing and Validating a Multivariable Prognostic-Predictive Classifier for Treatment Escalation of Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: The PREDICTR-OPC Study.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2024-01-17)
PURPOSE: While there are several prognostic classifiers, to date, there are no validated predictive models that inform treatment selection for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC).Our aim was to develop clinical ...
Facts and Hopes on RAS Inhibitors and Cancer Immunotherapy.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2023-12-15)
Although the past decade has seen great strides in the development of immunotherapies that reactivate the immune system against tumors, there have also been major advances in the discovery of drugs blocking oncogenic drivers ...
Characterisation of a cyclic peptide that binds to the RAS binding domain of phosphoinositide 3-kinase p110 alpha
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-02-02)
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>P110α is a member of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) enzyme family that functions downstream of RAS. RAS proteins contribute to the activation of p110α by interacting directly ...
Homogeneous 2D and 3D alignment of cardiomyocyte in dilated cardiomyopathy revealed by intravital heart imaging.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-07-19)
In contrast to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, there has been reported no specific pattern of cardiomyocyte array in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), partially because lack of alignment assessment in a three-dimensional (3D) ...
Lung adenocarcinoma promotion by air pollutants.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-04-06)
A complete understanding of how exposure to environmental substances promotes cancer formation is lacking. More than 70 years ago, tumorigenesis was proposed to occur in a two-step process: an initiating step that induces ...
On-treatment immune prognostic score for patients with relapsed and/or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma treated with immunotherapy.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2021-06-01)
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have suggested that inflammatory markers (neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and fibrinogen) are prognostic biomarkers in patients with a variety of solid cancers, ...
Oncolytic virotherapy induced CSDE1 neo-antigenesis restricts VSV replication but can be targeted by immunotherapy.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-03-26)
In our clinical trials of oncolytic vesicular stomatitis virus expressing interferon beta (VSV-IFNβ), several patients achieved initial responses followed by aggressive relapse. We show here that VSV-IFNβ-escape tumors ...
