ADAM10 isoforms: Optimizing usage of antibodies based on protein regulation, structural features, biological activity and clinical relevance to Alzheimer's disease.

A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase 10 (ADAM10) is a crucial transmembrane protein involved in diverse cellular processes, including cell adhesion, migration, and proteolysis. ADAM10's ability to cleave over 100 substrates underscores its significance in physiological and pathological contexts, particularly in Alzheimer's disease (AD). This review comprehensively examines ADAM10's multifaceted roles, highlighting its critical function in the non-amyloidogenic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP), which mitigates amyloid beta (Aβ) production, a critical factor in AD development.

Acetylation of cedrelone increases its cytotoxic activity and reverts the malignant phenotype of breast cancer cells in 3D culture.

Cedrelone is a limonoid isolated from the plant Trichilia catigua (Meliaceae). Previous studies have demonstrated that cedrelone (1) has several damaging effects on triple negative breast tumor (TNBC) cell line MDA-MB-231. In this work we investigated two new derivatives of cedrelone, the acetate (1a) and the mesylate (1b), to examine whether their effects are improved in comparison to the lead molecule.

The trans-[Ru(PPh)(N,N-dimethyl-N'-thiophenylthioureato-kO,S)(bipy)]PF complex has pro-apoptotic effects on triple negative breast cancer cells and presents low toxicity in vivo.

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous subtype of breast tumors that does not exhibit the expression of estrogen and progesterone receptors, neither the amplification of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) gene. Despite all the advances in cancer treatments, the development of new anticancer drugs for TNBC tumors is still a challenge. There is an increasing interest in new agents to be used in cancer treatment.
