Background: The Microtubules-associated protein tau (MAPT), alpha-synuclein (SNCA), and leucine zipper tumor suppressor 3 (LZTS3) genes are implicated in neurodegeneration and tumor suppression, respectively. This study investigated the regulatory roles of eugenol on paraquat-altered genes.

Results: Forty male Wistar rats divided into five groups of eight rats were used.

Background: Clonal myeloproliferation and fibrotic transformation of the bone marrow (BM) are the pathogenetic events most commonly occurring in myelofibrosis (MF). There is great evidence indicating that tumor microenvironment is characterized by high lactate levels, acting not only as an energetic source, but also as a signaling molecule.

Methods: To test the involvement of lactate in MF milieu transformation, we measured its levels in MF patients' sera, eventually finding a massive accumulation of this metabolite, which we showed to promote the expansion of immunosuppressive subsets.

The SIRT5-JIP4 interaction promotes osteoclastogenesis by modulating RANKL-induced signaling transduction.

Cell Commun Signal

January 2025

Department of Endocrine and Metabolic Diseases, Shanghai Institute of Endocrine and Metabolic Diseases, Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, 197 Ruijin Road II, Shanghai, 200025, China.

Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) initiates a complex signaling cascade that is crucial for inducing osteoclast differentiation and activation. RANKL-induced signaling has been analyzed in detail, and the involvement of TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6), calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMK), NF-κB, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), activator protein-1 (AP-1), and molecules that contain an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) has been reported. However, the precise molecular steps that regulate RANKL signaling remain largely unknown.

Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive cancer with limited treatment options and a poor prognosis. The critical role of epigenetic alterations such as changes in DNA methylation, histones modifications, and chromatin remodeling, in pancreatic tumors progression is becoming increasingly recognized. Moreover, in PDAC these aberrant epigenetic mechanisms can also limit therapy efficacy.

TP53 germline testing and hereditary cancer: how somatic events and clinical criteria affect variant detection rate.

Genome Med

January 2025

Hereditary Cancer Group, Oncobell Program, Institut d'Investigació Biomèdica de Bellvitge (IDIBELL), Av. Gran Via 199-203, L'Hospitalet del Llobregat, 08908, Spain.

Background: Germline heterozygous pathogenic variants (PVs) in TP53 cause Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS), a condition associated with increased risk of multiple tumor types. As the associated cancer risks were refined over time, clinical criteria also evolved to optimize diagnostic yield. The implementation of multi-gene panel germline testing in different clinical settings has led to the identification of TP53 PV carriers outside the classic LFS-associated cancer phenotypes, leading to a broader cancer phenotypic redefinition and to the renaming of the condition as "heritable TP53-related cancer syndrome" (hTP53rc).
