Protein kinase C iota (PKCι) and pVHL are both needed for lysosomal degradation of α5 integrin in renal carcinoma cells.
Mol Biol Rep
January 2025
Department of Biology, Adelphi University, One South Avenue, P.O. Box 701, Garden City, NY, 11530-0701, USA.
Background: von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) hereditary cancer syndrome is caused by mutations in the VHL tumor suppressor gene and is characterized by a predisposition to form various types of tumors, including renal cell carcinomas, hemangioblastomas, and pheochromocytomas. The protein products of the VHL gene, pVHL, are part of an ubiquitin ligase complex that tags hypoxia inducible factor alpha (HIF-α) for proteosomal degradation. pVHL has also been reported to bind to atypical protein kinase C (aPKC).

December 2024
Internal Medicine, Merit Health Wesley, Hattiesburg, USA.
This case report highlights the complex clinical presentation of a 43-year-old male with a history of renal transplantation, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus, who developed viral meningitis with probable metabolic encephalopathy. The multidisciplinary approach involved infectious disease specialists, transplant nephrologists, and neurologists. This case provides unique learning points such as highlighting the complexities of diagnosing and managing viral meningitis in an immunocompromised post-transplant patient, emphasizing the importance of a multidisciplinary approach, innovative medication delivery, and awareness for complications such as metabolic encephalopathy and persistent fevers.

Department of Cellular and Molecular Physiology, Penn State College of Medicine, Hershey, Pennsylvania 17033. Electronic address:
Increasing evidence supports the role of an augmented immune response in the early development and progression of renal complications caused by diabetes. We recently demonstrated that podocyte-specific expression of stress response protein regulated in development and DNA damage response 1 (REDD1) contributes to activation of the pro-inflammatory transcription factor NF-κB in the kidney of diabetic mice. The studies here were designed to define the specific signaling events whereby REDD1 promotes NF-κB activation in the context of diabetic nephropathy.

Introduction: Developing strategies to improve the therapeutic efficacy of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) in autoimmune diseases have garnered increased attention.
Objectives: To evaluate whether rapamycin-induced autophagy within the systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) inflammatory microenvironment (Rapa-SLE) augments the therapeutic effects of MSC-derived EVs in SLE.
Methods: The therapeutic potential of the resulting EVs (Rapa-SLE-EV) was assessed in MRL/lpr mice.
Feasibility and safety of hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy in patients with ovarian cancer and chronic kidney disease.
Int J Gynecol Cancer
January 2025
Division of Gynecologic Oncology, Obstetrics & Gynecology Institute, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OH, USA.
Objective: This study aimed to compare perioperative outcomes and progression-free and overall survival in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) versus those without after hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for ovarian cancer.
Methods: This is a retrospective, single-institution cohort study of patients with ovarian cancer treated with HIPEC at the Cleveland Clinic from January 2009 to December 2022. All patients received HIPEC with cisplatin and renal protection with mannitol and furosemide.
