Protein secretion is a general phenomenon by which cells communicate with the extracellular environment. Secretory proteins, including hormones, enzymes, toxins, and antimicrobial peptides have various functions in extracellular environments. Here, we determined that ribosomal protein S3 (rpS3) is homodimerized and secreted in several cancer cell lines such as HT1080 (human fibrosarcoma) and MPC11 (mouse plasmacytoma). Moreover, we found that the secreted rpS3 protein increased in doxorubicin-resistant MPC11 cells compared to that in MPC11 cells. In addition, we also detected that the level of secreted rpS3 increased in more malignant cells, which were established with continuous exposure of cigarette smoke condensate. These findings suggest that the secreted rpS3 protein is an indicator of malignant tumors.

Osteoarthritis (OA), particularly in the knee and hip, poses a significant global health challenge due to limited therapeutic options. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of OA and identify potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets, we utilized genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and cis-miRNA expression quantitative trait loci (cis-miR-eQTL) datasets to identify miRNAs associated with OA, revealing 16 that were linked to knee OA and 21 to hip OA. Among these, hsa-miR-1303 was significantly upregulated in both knee and hip OA (IVW: = 6.

Metastasis is responsible for approximately 90% of lethality from solid tumors. Metabolic abnormalities are one of the key characteristics of tumor cells, closely associated with tumorigenesis and progression. The de novo synthesis pathway of serine is a key metabolic bypass in glycolysis, which could provide material and energy basis for the rapid proliferation of tumor cells by mediating one-carbon metabolism.

Article Synopsis
- - Aberrant translation causes ribosome stalling, leading to ribosomal protein ubiquitination and activation of quality control, with RNF10 playing a key role in this process by monoubiquitinating RPS3.
- - RNF10 helps dissociate 40S ribosomal subunits from stalled ribosomes during both translation elongation and initiation, preventing the formation of ribosomal half-mers.
- - The levels of RNF10 are tightly linked to the availability of 40S subunits, as knockdowns of RPS or RPL proteins can either lead to RNF10 degradation or accumulation, respectively, indicating that RNF10 is crucial for dealing with imbalances in ribosomal subunit production.

Lesions and stable secondary structures in mRNA severely impact the translation efficiency, causing ribosome stalling and collisions. Prokaryotic ribosomal proteins Rps3, Rps4 and Rps5, located in the mRNA entry tunnel, form the mRNA helicase center and unwind stable mRNA secondary structures during translation. However, the mechanism underlying the detection of lesions on translating mRNA is unclear.

Introduction: Colorectal cancer ranks as the third most common cancer in both men and women, with approximately 35% of cases being stage IV metastatic at diagnosis. Even with treatment advancements, the survival rates for these patients remain suboptimal. There is a significant focus on developing multi-targeted therapies due to the common issue of drug resistance in standard and targeted cancer treatments.
