Exportin 1 inhibition prevents neuroendocrine transformation through SOX2 down-regulation in lung and prostate cancers

In lung and prostate adenocarcinomas, neuroendocrine (NE) transformation to an aggressive derivative resembling small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is associated with poor prognosis. We previously described dependency of SCLC on the nuclear transporter exportin ...

Polyphenic trait promotes liver cancer in a model of epigenetic instability

Didier Trono, Evaristo Jose Planet Letschert, Sandra Eloise Kjeldsen, Alessandra Piersigilli, Marco Cassano, Suk Min Jang

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents the fifth most common form of cancer worldwide and carries a high mortality rate due to lack of effective treatment. Males are eight times more likely to develop HCC than females, an effect largely driven by sex ho ...

Effect-based tools for monitoring estrogenic mixtures: Evaluation of five in vitro bioassays

In vitro estrogen receptor transactivation assays (ERTAs) are increasingly used to measure the overall estrogenic activity of environmental water samples, which may serve as an indicator of exposure of fish or other aquatic organisms to (xeno)estrogens. An ...

Peptide macrocycle inhibitor of coagulation factor XII with subnanomolar affinity and high target selectivity

Christian Heinis, Jonas Alfred Karl Wilbs, Simon Jan Middendorp

Factor XII (FXII) is a plasma protease that has emerged in recent years as a potential target to treat or prevent pathological thrombosis, to inhibit contact activation in extracorporeal circulation, and to treat the swelling disorder hereditary angioedema ...

Identification of the Link Between the Hypothalamo-Pituitary Axis and the Testicular Orphan Nuclear Receptor NR0B2 in Adult Male Mice

Kristina Schoonjans

The small heterodimer partner (SHP, nuclear receptor subfamily 0, group B, member 2; NR0B2) is an atypical nuclear receptor known mainly for its role in bile acid homeostasis in the enterohepatic tract. We previously showed that NR0B2 controls testicular f ...

Abcb4 acts as multixenobiotic transporter and active barrier against chemical uptake in zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos

Kristin Schirmer

Background: In mammals, ABCB1 constitutes a cellular "first line of defense" against a wide array of chemicals and drugs conferring cellular multidrug or multixenobiotic resistance (MDR/MXR). We tested the hypothesis that an ABCB1 ortholog serves as protec ...

Electrochemical Detection of Anti-Breast-Cancer Agents in Human Serum by Cytochrome P450-Coated Carbon Nanotubes

Giovanni De Micheli, Sandro Carrara, Camilla Baj-Rossi

We report on the electrochemical detection of anti-cancer drugs in human serum with sensitivity values in the range of 8–925 nA/µM. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes were functionalized with three different cytochrome P450 isoforms (CYP1A2, CYP2B6, and CYP3A4) ...

A Short and Convenient Synthesis of 1-Deoxymannojirimycin (DMJ) and N-oxy-Analogues from D-Fructose

Pierre Vogel, Sandrine Gerber, Claudia Bello

The ketonitrone 8 was prepared from D-fructose as an inexpensive starting material, and was used in a stereoselective synthesis of 1-deoxymannojirimycin (4), its previously unknown N-hydroxy analogue 15, as well as the polyhydroxylated ketonitrone 14. The ...

Intracellular 'boosting' of darunavir using known transport inhibitors in primary PBMC

Ruben Hartkoorn

center dot Antiretroviral protease inhibitors such as lopinavir and saquinavir have been shown to be substrates of ABCB1. Co-administration with the potent ABCB1 and CYP3A4 inhibitor, ritonavir, has shown improved pharmacokinetics and subsequent therapeuti ...

Serum Bile Acids Are Higher in Humans With Prior Gastric Bypass: Potential Contribution to Improved Glucose and Lipid Metabolism

Johan Auwerx

The multifactorial mechanisms promoting weight loss and improved metabolism following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (GB) surgery remain incompletely understood. Recent rodent studies suggest that bile acids can mediate energy homeostasis by activating the G-pro ...
