Protein prenylation in mechanotransduction: implications for disease and therapy.
Trends Pharmacol Sci

Department of Cardiology, The First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou 310003, China. Electronic address:
The process by which cells translate external mechanical cues into intracellular biochemical signals involves intricate mechanisms that remain unclear. In recent years, research into post-translational modifications (PTMs) has offered valuable insights into this field, spotlighting protein prenylation as a crucial mechanism in cellular mechanotransduction and various human diseases. Protein prenylation, which involves the covalent attachment of isoprenoid groups to specific substrate proteins, profoundly affects the functions of key mechanotransduction proteins such as Rho, Ras, and lamins.

Background: Moderate doses of glucocorticoids result in improvements in nearly all patients with polymyalgia rheumatica, but related adverse events are common in older individuals. We aimed to evaluate whether treatment with baricitinib (a Janus kinase 1/2 inhibitor) results in disease control without the use of oral glucocorticoids in people with recent-onset polymyalgia rheumatica.
Methods: We conducted a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial at six expert centres in France.

Introduction: Nakaseomyces glabratus is considered a high priority of attention according to WHO, and also is an important yeast species due to its high rate of intrinsic/acquired resistance against fluconazole. This study aimed at the possible mechanisms of action of thymol, as the promising new antifungal agent, in N. glabratus.
