Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B is a regulator of alpha-actinin4 in the glomerular podocyte
This study aims to uncover novel substrates of PTP1B in podocytes and validate a leading candidate. To this end, using substrate-trapping and mass spectroscopy, we identified putative substrates of this phosphatase and investigated the actin cross-linking cytoskeletal protein alpha-actinin4. PTP1B and alpha-actinin4 co-localized in murine and human glomeruli and transiently transfected E11 podocyte cells. Additionally, podocyte PTP1B deficiency in vivo and culture was associated with elevated tyrosine phosphorylation of alpha-actinin4. Conversely, reconstitution of the knockdown cells with PTP1B attenuated alpha-actinin4 t...

Maresin-1 prevents blood-spinal cord barrier disruption associated with TRPV4 elevation in the experimental model of spinal cord injury
Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Cell Biol Lipids. 2023 Sep 18:159395. doi: 10.1016/j.bbalip.2023.159395. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRecently, we reported the TRPV4 ion channel activation and its association with secondary damage after spinal cord injury (SCI). TRPV4 activation is linked with blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) disruption, endothelial damage, and inflammation after SCI. Specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPM) are endogenous lipid mediators released for inflammation resolution. Studies suggest that SPM could act as an endogenous antagonist of ion channels directly or indirectly at the plasma membrane. Herein, we ...

MEK inhibition induces expression of differentiation marker Keratin 10 in human keratinocytes
Pathol Res Pract. 2023 Sep 2;250:154788. doi: 10.1016/j.prp.2023.154788. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBRAF mutant metastatic melanoma was regularly treated in the past with a BRAF inhibitor (BRAFi) alone or in combination with inhibitors of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEKi), which is still a common treatment. This combination therapy strongly reduced the occurrence of keratoacanthomas and squamous cell carcinoma, which was frequently seen when BRAFi was used as monotherapy. Here we addressed the question whether MEK inhibition counteracts squamous cell carcinoma development in part by promoting keratinocy...

Combinatorial treatment with PARP and MAPK inhibitors overcomes phenotype switch-driven drug resistance in advanced melanoma
Cancer Res. 2023 Sep 20. doi: 10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-23-0485. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMetastatic melanoma is either intrinsically resistant or rapidly acquires resistance to targeted therapy treatments, such as MAPK inhibitors. A leading cause of resistance to targeted therapy is a dynamic transition of melanoma cells from a proliferative to a highly invasive state, a phenomenon called phenotype switching. Mechanisms regulating phenotype switching represent potential targets for improving treatment of melanoma patients. Using a drug screen targeting chromatin regulators in patient-derived 3D MAPK inhibitor-resistant m...

Fatty acid oxidation mediated by malonyl-CoA decarboxylase represses renal cell carcinoma progression
Cancer Res. 2023 Sep 20. doi: 10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-23-0969. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFatty acid metabolism reprogramming is a prominent feature of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Increased lipid storage supports ccRCC progression, highlighting the importance of understanding the molecular mechanisms driving altered fatty acid synthesis in tumors. Here, we identified that malonyl-CoA decarboxylase (MLYCD), a key regulator of fatty acid anabolism, was downregulated in ccRCC, and low expression correlated with poor prognosis in patients. Restoring MLYCD expression in ccRCC cells decreased the content of malonyl...
