AI Article Synopsis

  • The workshop focused on the importance of 3D cellular imaging techniques in understanding the macromolecular world.
  • It emphasizes the need for proper strategies to archive, curate, validate, and share data from these imaging techniques within the biomedical community.
  • The goal is to enhance the interpretation and reuse of the data to support further research and applications.

Article Abstract

We report the outcomes of the discussion initiated at the workshop entitled A 3D Cellular Context for the Macromolecular World and propose how data from emerging three-dimensional (3D) cellular imaging techniques—such as electron tomography, 3D scanning electron microscopy and soft X-ray tomography—should be archived, curated, validated and disseminated, to enable their interpretation and reuse by the biomedical community.

PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that bind to the PIWI subclass of the Argonaute protein family and are essential for maintaining germline integrity. Initially discovered in , PIWI proteins safeguard piRNAs, forming ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes, crucial for regulating gene expression and genome stability, by suppressing transposable elements (TEs). Recent insights revealed that piRNAs and PIWI proteins, known for their roles in germline maintenance, significantly influence mRNA stability, translation and retrotransposon silencing in both stem cells and bodily tissues.

In the context of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, the continuous replication of HBV within host hepatocytes is a characteristic feature. Rather than directly causing hepatocyte destruction, this replication leads to immune dysfunction and establishes a state of T-B immune tolerance. Successful clearance of the HBV virus is dependent on the close collaboration between humoral and cellular immunity.

End-stage liver diseases have an increasing impact worldwide, exacerbated by the shortage of transplantable organs. Recognized as one of the promising solutions, tissue engineering aims at recreating functional tissues and organs . The integration of bioprinting technologies with biological 3D models, such as multi-cellular spheroids, has enabled the fabrication of tissue constructs that better mimic complex structures and functionality of organs.

Polyamines: Key Players in Immunometabolism and Immune Regulation.

J Cell Immunol

Department of Biological Sciences, School of Dental Medicine, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, 44106, USA.

Polyamines are small organic molecules ubiquitously present in all living organisms and function as crucial regulators of biological processes ranging from fundamental cellular metabolism to immune regulation. Dysregulation of polyamine metabolism has been implicated in numerous diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders, inflammatory conditions, autoimmune diseases, and cancer. This review provides an overview of pathophysiology of these conditions, highlighting polyamines' role in immunometabolic alterations in the context of immune regulation.

In esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, genetic activation of NRF2 increases resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, which results in a significantly worse prognosis for patients. Therefore NRF2-activated cancers create an urgent clinical need to identify new therapeutic options. In this context, we previously identified the geldanamycin family of HSP90 inhibitors, which includes 17DMAG, to be synthetic lethal with NRF2 activity.
