The type V transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) receptor (TbetaR-V) is hypothesized to be involved in cellular growth inhibition by TGF-beta(1). Recently, TbetaR-V was found to be identical to low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (LRP-1). Here we demonstrate that TGF-beta(1) inhibits growth of wild-type CHO cells but not LRP-1-deficient mutant cells (CHO-LRP-1(-) cells). Stable transfection of CHO-LRP-1(-) cells with LRP-1 cDNA restores the wild-type morphology and the sensitivity to growth inhibition by TGF-beta(1). In addition, overexpression of LRP-1 minireceptors exerts a dominant negative effect and attenuates the growth inhibitory response to TGF-beta(1) in wild-type CHO cells. These results suggest that LRP-1/TbetaR-V is critical for TGF-beta(1)-mediated growth inhibition in CHO cells.

The molecular mechanisms by which vaccinia virus (VACV), the prototypical member of the poxviridae family, reprograms host cell metabolism remain largely unexplored. Additionally, cells sense and respond to fluctuating nutrient availability, thereby modulating metabolic pathways to ensure cellular homeostasis. Understanding how VACV modulates metabolic pathways in response to nutrient signals is crucial for understanding viral replication mechanisms, with the potential for developing antiviral therapies.

Treatment with antibiotics is a major risk factor for infection, likely due to depletion of the gastrointestinal microbiota. Two microbiota-mediated mechanisms thought to limit colonization include the conversion of conjugated primary bile salts into secondary bile salts toxic to growth and competition between the microbiota and for limiting nutrients. Using a continuous flow model that simulates the nutrient conditions of the distal colon, we investigated how treatment with 6 clinically used antibiotics influenced susceptibility to infection in 12 different microbial communities cultivated from healthy individuals.

Plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium Sp7 utilizes fructose efficiently via a fructose phosphotransferase system (Fru-PTS). Its genome encodes two putative Fru-PTS, each consisting of FruB (EIIA), FruK (Pfk), and FruA (EIIBC) proteins. We compared the proteomes of Sp7 grown with malate or fructose as sole carbon source, and noticed upregulation of the constituent proteins of Fru-PTS1 only on fructose.

Tamoxifen (TAM) is employed to treat premenopausal ER-positive breast cancer patients, but TAM resistance is the main reason affecting its efficacy. Thus, addressing TAM resistance is crucial for improving therapeutic outcomes. This study explored the potential role of Tinagl1, a secreted extracellular matrix protein, whose expression is compromised in TAM-resistant MCF-7 breast cancer cells (MCF-7R).
