Ionizing radiation is a popular and effective treatment option for glioblastoma (GBM). However, resistance to radiation therapy inevitably occurs during treatment. It is urgent to investigate the mechanisms of radioresistance in GBM and to find ways to improve radiosensitivity. Here, we found that heat shock protein 90 beta family member 1 (HSP90B1) was significantly upregulated in radioresistant GBM cell lines. More importantly, HSP90B1 promoted the localization of glucose transporter type 1, a key rate-limiting factor of glycolysis, on the plasma membrane, which in turn enhanced glycolytic activity and subsequently tumor growth and radioresistance of GBM cells. These findings imply that targeting HSP90B1 may effectively improve the efficacy of radiotherapy for GBM patients, a potential new approach to the treatment of glioblastoma.

Paramyxovirus membrane fusion requires an attachment protein for receptor binding and a fusion protein for membrane fusion triggering. Nipah virus (NiV) attachment protein (G) binds to ephrinB2 or -B3 receptors, and fusion protein (F) mediates membrane fusion. NiV-F is a class I fusion protein and is activated by endosomal cleavage.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) emerged as critical contributors to the pathogenesis of vascular endothelial barrier dysfunction during the inflammatory response to infection. However, the contribution of circulating EVs to modifying endothelial function during dengue virus infection remains unclear. In this study, we showed that severe dengue patients' plasma-derived EV (SD-EV) were found to carry elevated levels of different protein cargos, e.

αβT cells protect vertebrates against many diseases, optimizing surveillance using mechanical force to distinguish between pathophysiologic cellular alterations and normal self-constituents. The multi-subunit αβT-cell receptor (TCR) operates outside of thermal equilibrium, harvesting energy via physical forces generated by T-cell motility and actin-myosin machinery. When a peptide-bound major histocompatibility complex molecule (pMHC) on an antigen presenting cell is ligated, the αβTCR on the T cell leverages force to form a catch bond, prolonging bond lifetime, and enhancing antigen discrimination.

Unlabelled: RamA is an intrinsic regulator in , belonging to the AraC family of transcription factors and conferring a multidrug resistance phenotype, especially for tetracycline-class antibiotics. The ATP-binding cassette transporters MlaFEDCB in bacteria play essential roles in functions essential for cell survival and intrinsic resistance to many antibiotics. We found deletion of resulted in a fivefold decrease in the transcriptional levels of the operon.

Although cisplatin is widely used as a first-line chemotherapy agent, it has significant side effects. Herein, we synthesized a Pt(II) complex (Pt1) derived from o-vanillin-4-phenylthiosemicarbazone ligand, and confirmed its crystal structure by X-ray crystallography. Complex Pt1 exhibited potent anticancer activity against various tested cancer cell lines, with particular efficacy against HepG-2 cells.
