Heliyon. 2024 May 9;10(9):e30766. doi: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e30766. eCollection 2024 May 15.ABSTRACTProstate cancer (PCa) is the most common malignancy of the male urinary system. Mitophagy, as a type of autophagy, can remove damaged mitochondria in cells. Mitophagy-related genes (MRGs) have been shown to play critical roles in the development of...

Front Microbiol. 2024 May 7;15:1384459. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2024.1384459. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTPine wilt disease caused by Bursaphelenchus xylophilus poses a serious threat to the economic and ecological value of forestry. Nematode trapping fungi trap and kill nematodes using specialized trapping devices, which are highly efficient and non-toxic...

Acta Biochim Biophys Sin (Shanghai). 2024 May 22. doi: 10.3724/abbs.2024065. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAutophagy dysregulation and Ca 2+-induced mitochondrial dysfunction in trophoblast cells are proposed to contribute to preeclampsia (PE) development. FAM134B is identified as a receptor associated with endoplasmic reticulum autophagy (ER-phagy)....

Int J Med Sci. 2024 Apr 29;21(6):1165-1175. doi: 10.7150/ijms.94566. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTOral cancer is the most heterogeneous cancer at clinical and histological levels. PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway was identified as one of the most commonly modulated signals in oral cancer, which regulates major cellular and metabolic activity of the cell. Thus, various...

Gen Physiol Biophys. 2024 May;43(3):231-242. doi: 10.4149/gpb_2024005.ABSTRACTVascular endothelial cell functions affect lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans (LEASO), while alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2M) and CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF) are closely related to the function of such cells. This paper aims to identify the influences of CTCF on vascular...

Biophys Rep. 2024 Apr 30;10(2):82-101. doi: 10.52601/bpr.2024.240002.ABSTRACTRibophagy, the cellular process wherein ribosomes are selectively self-digested through autophagy, plays a pivotal role in maintaining ribosome turnover. Understanding the molecular regulatory mechanisms governing ribophagy is pivotal to uncover its significance. Consequently,...
