Sestrin2 ameliorates age-related spontaneous benign prostatic hyperplasia via activation of AMPK/mTOR dependent autophagy.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), characterized as a chronic disease with unregulated enlargement of prostatic gland, is commonly observed in elderly men leading to lower urinary tract dysfunction. Sestrin2 plays a role in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis and protects organisms from various stimuli. The exact role of Sestrin2 in the etiology of BPH, a common age-related disease, remains unknown.

This study investigated the effects of long-term serum starvation on autophagy, metabolism, and differentiation of porcine skeletal muscle satellite cells (SMSCs) and elucidated the role of autophagy in skeletal muscle development. Our findings provide a theoretical basis for improving meat production in domestic pigs. The SMSCs isolated and preserved in our laboratory were revived and divided into six groups based on the culture medium serum concentration to simulate varying levels of serum starvation: 20% serum (control group), 15% serum (mild serum starvation group), 5% serum (severe serum starvation group), and their autophagy inhibition groups supplemented with 3-methyladenine.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease without an approved pharmacological approach for its prevention/treatment. Based on the modified Delphi process, NAFLD was redefined as metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) to highlight the metabolic aspect of liver pathogenesis. Chios mastiha ( var.

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) exhibits a unique mode of metastasis, involving spheroid formation in the peritoneum. Our research on EOC spheroid cell biology has provided valuable insights into the signaling plasticity associated with metastasis. We speculate that EOC cells modify their biology between tumour and spheroid states during cancer dormancy, although the specific mechanisms underlying this transition remain unknown.

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) contribute to the resistance of intractable prostate cancer, and dopamine receptor (DR)D2 antagonists exhibit anticancer activity against prostate cancer and CSCs. Human prostate cancer PC-3 cells were used to generate CSC-like cells, serving as a surrogate system to identify the specific DR subtype the inhibition of which significantly affects prostate-derived CSCs. Additionally, the present study aimed to determine the downstream signaling molecules of this DR subtype that exert more profound effects compared with other DR subtypes.
