Article Abstract

A recent in vitro study showed that pharmacological inhibition of the nuclear export receptor XPO1 suppresses oxaliplatin-induced nuclear release of HMGB1 and HMGB2, as well as the translocation of CALR to the plasma membrane. Moreover, cell-targeted-HMGB2 protein potently induced CALR exposure, even in the absence of oxaliplatin.

Molecular Determinants of Mg-Mediated Inhibition in RyR1: Insights from Computational Approaches.

We investigated Mg-mediated inhibition of RyR1 by analyzing solvation, permeation, and binding interactions of Mg, Ca, Na, and K across three functional states: Ca-activated (opRyR1), closed (clRyR1), and Mg-inhibited (HMgRyR1). Using molecular dynamics simulations, potential of mean force (PMF) analysis, quantum mechanical calculations, and MM-GBSA binding free energy calculations, we identified the structural and energetic determinants of Mg inhibition. Our water occupancy analysis reveals that Mg binding at D4945 stabilizes the S6 helical arrangement within the cytoplasmic vestibule in the HMgRyR1 state, maintaining a narrowed pore and reducing water accessibility.

Targeting KPNB1 suppresses AML cells by inhibiting HMGB2 nuclear import.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) represents the most prevalent malignancy within the hematologic system, characterized by refractory relapses and a scarcity of effective treatment options. Karyopherin subunit beta-1 (KPNB1) is a member of karyopherin β family, mediating the nuclear import of its cargoes. In this study, we found that elevated expression levels of KPNB1 are associated with unfavorable outcomes in patients with AML.

HMGB2-induced calreticulin translocation required for immunogenic cell death and ferroptosis of cancer cells are controlled by the nuclear exporter XPO1.

Cisplatin and oxaliplatin cause the secretion of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein from cancer cells, which is necessary for initiation of immunogenic cell death (ICD). Calreticulin (CRT) translocation from the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane is also required; oxaliplatin induces this translocation but cisplatin does not. We have discovered that oxaliplatin causes the secretion of both HMGB1 and HMGB2 from the cell nucleus into the extracellular milieu.

Aims: High mobility group box (HMGB) family proteins, HMGB1, HMGB2, HMGB3, and HMGB4 are oncogenic. The oncogenic nature of HMGB1 is characterized by its association with autophagy, ROS, and MMP. Since HMGB3 is its paralog, we hypothesized that it might also modulate autophagy, ROS, and MMP.
