A cohort-based multi-omics identifies nuclear translocation of eIF5B /PD-L1/CD44 complex as the target to overcome Osimertinib resistance of ARID1A-deficient lung adenocarcinoma by Dantong Sun, Helei Hou, Feiyue Feng, Weizheng Wu, Jingyu Tan, Tongji Xie, Jiayu Liu, Jinsong Wang, Haili Qian, Junling Li, Puyuan Xing

“…Results We found that the ARID1A deficiency results in resistance to Osimertinib by hindering programmed cell death through the EZH2/PTEN/E2F1 axis. This altered axis influences PD-L1 transcription through E2F1-mediated promoter activation and PD-L1 translation via the MDM2/eIF5B/PD-L1 axis. …”

Importance of OsRac1 in Signalling of Pigm-1 Mediated Resistance to Rice Blast Disease by Dewei Yang, Niqing He, Fenghuang Huang, Jialin Chen, Minxiang Yu, Yidan Jin, Shaojun Lin, Shengping Li

“…This study shows that the nucleotide-binding site (NBS) domain of Pigm-1 facilitates its binding to and activation of OsRac1 while the coiled-coil (CC) domain enables its binding to and activation of RAI1, ultimately inducing cell death. At the same time, after knocking out <i>OsRac1</i> in the background of Shuangkang 77009 containing <i>Pigm-1</i>, two knockout lines showed susceptibility to rice blast. …”

Evaluation of autophagic and apoptotic markers during infection with animal virus causing hemorrhagic fever in rabbits by Dominika Bębnowska, Dominika Bębnowska, Sylwia Rzeszotek, Agnieszka Kolasa, Karolina Wiśniewska, Karolina Wiśniewska, Magdalena Żabińska, Aneta Szulc, Zuzanna Cyske, Zuzanna Cyske, Karolina Pierzynowska, Karolina Pierzynowska, Aleksandra Wilk, Paulina Niedźwiedzka-Rystwej, Paulina Niedźwiedzka-Rystwej, Paulina Niedźwiedzka-Rystwej

“…This is particularly important because infection with different strains is associated with a different host immune response profile.MethodsIn this work, we analyzed the expression of selected genes and proteins involved in autophagic flux in the liver, spleen, kidney and peripheral blood, but also apoptotic cell death in the liver and peripheral blood of rabbits infected with the GI.2 strain.ResultsAs a result, we showed that autophagy is strongly activated in the liver, spleen and kidney of infected rabbits, and confirmed the activation of apoptosis in the liver.DiscussionThis study highlights the role of apoptosis and autophagy in the immune response in rabbits infected with Lagovirus europaeus/GI.2.…”

Research Progress on the Role of Inflammasomes in Kidney Disease by Kun Chi, Xiaodong Geng, Chao Liu, GuangYan Cai, Quan Hong

“…Inflammasomes are multimeric complexes composed of cytoplasmic sensors, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase activation and recruitment domain (ASC or PYCARD), and procaspase-1 and play roles in regulating caspase-dependent inflammation and cell death. Inflammasomes are assembled by sensing pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and initiate inflammatory responses by activating caspase-1. …”
