Twist-Induced Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition Confers Specific Metabolic and Mitochondrial Alterations.

Cells undergo significant epigenetic and phenotypic change during the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process observed in development, wound healing, and cancer metastasis. EMT confers several advantageous characteristics, including enhanced migration and invasion, resistance to cell death, and altered metabolism. In disease, these adaptations could be leveraged as therapeutic targets.

Differences in Protein Capture by SP3 and SP4 Demonstrate Mechanistic Insights of Proteomics Cleanup Techniques.

The goal of proteomics experiments is to identify proteins to observe changes in cellular processes and diseases. One challenge in proteomics is the removal of contaminants following protein extraction, which can limit protein identifications. Single-pot, solid-phase-enhanced sample preparation (SP3) is a cleanup technique in which proteins are captured on carboxylate-modified particles through a proposed hydrophilic-interaction-liquid-chromatography (HILIC)-like mechanism.
