A key signaling pathway for fork protection involves TRPV2-mediated Ca2+ release from the ER, which is triggered after the generation of cytosolic DNA and the activation of cGAS/STING. The resulting CaMKK2/AMPK activati...

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) are a new type of nanozyme with incredible catalytic efficiency. Here we construct a single-atom manganese (Mn)-N/C nanozyme. Mn-N/C catalyzes the conversion of cellular H2O2 to ∙OH through a Fenton-like ...

Role of the STING  pathway in myeloid neoplasms: a prospero-registered systematic review of principal hurdles of STING on the road to the clinical practice
AbstractMyeloid neoplasms are a group of bone marrow diseases distinguished by disruptions in the molecular pathways that regulate the balance between hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) self-renewal and the generation of specialized cells. Cytokines and chemokines, two important components of the inflammatory process, also influence hematological differentiation. In this scenario, immunological dysregulation plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of bone marrow neoplasms. The STING pathway recognizes DNA fragments in the cell cytoplasm and triggers an immune response by type I interferons. The role of STING in cancer has not ...

ISGylation by HERCs facilitates STING activation
Cell Rep. 2024 Apr 21;43(5):114135. doi: 10.1016/j.celrep.2024.114135. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOptimal activation of stimulator of interferon genes (STING) protein is crucial for host defenses against pathogens and avoiding detrimental effects. Various post-translational modifications control STING activity. However, the function of interferon (IFN)-stimulated gene (ISG) 15 modification (ISGylation) in controlling STING stability and activation is unclear. Here, we show that the E3 ISGylation ligases HECT domain- and RCC1-like domain-containing proteins (HERCs; HERC5 in humans and HERC6 in mice) facilitate STING acti...

HSV-1 employs UL56 to antagonize expression and function of cGAMP channels
We report that infection with multiple human viruses depletes some of these cGAMP conduits. This includes herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) that targets SLC46A2, P2X7, and the VRAC subunits LRRC8A and LRRC8C for degradation. The HSV-1 protein UL56 is necessary and sufficient for these effects that are mediated at least partially by proteasomal turnover. UL56 thereby inhibits cGAMP uptake via VRAC, SLC46A2, and P2X7. Taken together, HSV-1 antagonizes intercellular cGAMP transfer. We propose that this limits innate immunity by reducing cell-to-cell communication via the immunotransmitter cGAMP.PMID:38652659 | DOI:10.1016/j.celr...

Identification of hub genes and key pathways in spinal cord injury via bioinformatics analysis
This study aimed to explore the hub genes and related key pathways in Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) based on the bioinformatics analysis. Two microarray datasets (GSE45006, GSE45550) were obtained from the GEO database and were merged and batch-corrected. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in SCI were explored with the Limma, and the weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was conducted to explore the module genes. Functional enrichment analysis and Gene set variation analysis (GSVA) were used to investigate the biological functions and key pathways of the key genes related to SCI. Then the protein-protein i...
