Targeted Degradation of Cell-Surface Proteins via Chaperone-Mediated Autophagy by Using Peptide-Conjugated Antibodies.

Cell-surface proteins are important drug targets but historically have posed big challenges for the complete elimination of their functions. Herein, we report antibody-peptide conjugates (Ab-CMAs) in which a peptide targeting chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) was conjugated with commercially available monoclonal antibodies for specific cell-surface protein degradation by taking advantage of lysosomal degradation pathways. Unique features of Ab-CMAs, including cell-surface receptor- and E3 ligase-independent degradation, feasibility towards different cell-surface proteins (e.

Modeling of senescence-related chemoresistance in ovarian cancer using data analysis and patient-derived organoids.

Background: Ovarian cancer (OC) is a malignant tumor associated with poor prognosis owing to its susceptibility to chemoresistance. Cellular senescence, an irreversible biological state, is intricately linked to chemoresistance in cancer treatment. We developed a senescence-related gene signature for prognostic prediction and evaluated personalized treatment in patients with OC.

Methods: The processed data were extracted from public databases (TCGA, GTEx, GEO and GeneCards).

The Dawn of a New Era: Targeting the "Undruggables" with Antibody-Based Therapeutics.

The high selectivity and affinity of antibodies toward their antigens have made them a highly valuable tool in disease therapy, diagnosis, and basic research. A plethora of chemical and genetic approaches have been devised to make antibodies accessible to more "undruggable" targets and equipped with new functions of illustrating or regulating biological processes more precisely. In this Review, in addition to introducing how naked antibodies and various antibody conjugates (such as antibody-drug conjugates, antibody-oligonucleotide conjugates, antibody-enzyme conjugates, etc.

EEG emotion recognition using improved graph neural network with channel selection.

Background And Objective: Emotion classification tasks based on electroencephalography (EEG) are an essential part of artificial intelligence, with promising applications in healthcare areas such as autism research and emotion detection in pregnant women. However, the complex data acquisition environment provides a variable number of EEG channels, which interferes with the model to simulate the process of information transfer in the human brain. Therefore, this paper proposes an improved graph convolution model with dynamic channel selection.

Toll-Like Receptor 4 (TLR4) Stimulates Synovial Injury of Temporomandibular Joint in Rats Through the Activation of p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) Signaling Pathway.

BACKGROUND Synovitis is an important disease that cause intractable pain in temporomandibular joint (TMJ), and the inflammation process played a crucial role in the initiation and development of temporomandibular joint disorder. A series of investigations suggested that the increasing expression of interleukin-(IL) 1β secreted by synovial lining cells plays an important role in synovial inflammation and cartilage destruction in TMJ. In this present study, we investigated the signaling pathways which regulate the expression of IL-1β.

Effect of Toll-Like Receptor 4 on Synovial Injury of Temporomandibular Joint in Rats Caused by Occlusal Interference.

Synovitis is an important disease that causes intractable pain in TMJ. Some investigations suggested that the increasing expression of IL-1β secreted by synovial lining cells plays an important role in synovial inflammation and cartilage destruction in TMJ. In our previous research, the results demonstrated that TLR4 is involved in the expression of IL-1β in SFs from TMJ with lipopolysaccharide stimulation.

Effect of p38 Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase Inhibitor on Temporomandibular Joint Synovitis Induced by Occlusal Alteration.

Purpose: To investigate the alteration in rat temporomandibular joint (TMJ) synovial membrane induced by increased occlusal vertical dimension (iOVD) and to determine whether the p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade is involved.

Materials And Methods: Thirty-six rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: control + normal saline (NS; controls), iOVD + NS, and iOVD + SB203580 (a potent p38 MAPK inhibitor). Morphologic changes of synovial tissues were observed and scored.

Effect of TLR4/MyD88 signaling pathway on expression of IL-1β and TNF-α in synovial fibroblasts from temporomandibular joint exposed to lipopolysaccharide.

Accumulating evidence from previous studies suggested that interleukin-1 (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) play an important role in pathogenesis of temporomandibular disorders (TMD). However, the cell surface receptors and the intracellular signal pathways leading to these cytokines expression are not fully understood. In the current study, we investigated the roles of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and its adaptor myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) in the expression of IL-1β and TNF-α in synovial fibroblasts (SFs) separated from rat temporomandibular joint (TMJ) with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation.
