With the advent of indexed mutagenized insertion lines in Arabidopsis, it is now possible to order small knockout collections of particular genes to probe a question of biological interest. This first requires querying Arabidopsis databases to identify lines of interest, ordering them and then verifying homozygous lines to make your collection. Once the collection is in hand, it can be used multiple times to test scientific hypotheses as they arise.

Interleukin-17A facilitates tumor progression upregulating programmed death ligand-1 expression in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an inflammation-associated tumor with a dismal prognosis. Immunotherapy has become an important treatment strategy for HCC, as immunity is closely related to inflammation in the tumor microenvironment. Inflammation regulates the expression of programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) in the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and affects immunotherapy efficacy.

Mismatch repair deficiency (dMMR) cancers are highly sensitive to immunotherapy, but only account for a small fraction of cancer patients. How to increase immunotherapy efficacy on MMR-proficient (pMMR) cancer is still a major challenge. This study demonstrates that pyrithione zinc (PYZ), an FDA-approved drug, can enhance tumor immunogenicity via altering MMR and activating STING signaling.

The cytotoxic mechanisms of thymidylate synthase inhibitors, such as the multitarget antifolate pemetrexed, are not yet fully understood. Emerging evidence indicates that combining pemetrexed with histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) may enhance therapeutic efficacy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). To explore this further, A549 NSCLC cells were treated with various combinations of pemetrexed and the HDACi MS275 (Entinostat), and subsequently assessed for cell viability, cell cycle changes, and genotoxic markers.

Arthritis leads to bone erosion due to an imbalance between osteoclast and osteoblast function. Our prior investigations revealed that the Ca-selective ion channel, Orai1, is critical for osteoclast maturation. Here, we show that the small-molecule ELP-004 preferentially inhibits transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels.

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) expresses a membrane-associated accessory protein (MAAP), a small nonstructural protein, that facilitates AAV secretion out of the plasma membrane through an association with extracellular vesicles during AAV egress. Here, we investigated the host proteins that interact with AAV2 MAAP (MAAP2) using APEX2-mediated proximity labeling. We identified two SNARE proteins, Syntaxin 7 (STX7) and synaptosome-associated protein 23 (SNAP23), a vesicle (v-)SNARE and a target (t-)SNARE, respectively, that mediate intracellular trafficking of membrane vesicles aand exhibited associations with MAAP2 in HEK293 cells.
