Background: Understanding the mutational landscape is critical for elucidating the molecular mechanisms driving cancer progression. This study aimed to profile somatic mutations in bladder cancer patients (N=7) from Bangladesh to provide insights into the genetic alterations underlying this malignancy.
Methods: We performed targeted sequencing of 50 oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes using the Ion AmpliSeq Cancer Hotspot Panel v2 on tumor and matched blood samples from seven bladder cancer patients.

Casein kinase 1 (CK1) family members are crucial for ER-Golgi trafficking, calcium signalling, DNA repair, transfer RNA (tRNA) modifications, and circadian rhythmicity. Whether and how substrate interactions and kinase autophosphorylation contribute to CK1 plasticity remains largely unknown. Here, we undertake a comprehensive phylogenetic, cellular, and molecular characterization of budding yeast CK1 Hrr25 and identify human CK1 epsilon (CK1ϵ) as its ortholog.

Cytokines link inflammation to tumorigenesis, but the role of post-translational modifications in regulating their function within the extra-tumoral environment remains poorly defined. Here, we identify tumor-derived tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily member 11B (TR11B) as a key driver of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) progression and therapeutic resistance. Mechanistically, O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT)-mediated O-GlcNAcylation at serine 151 stabilizes TR11B and facilitates its interaction with the membrane protein EPS15 homology domain-containing protein 1 (EHD1), promoting cyclin dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) phosphorylation and cell cycle progression.

Coal worker pneumoconiosis is an occupational pulmonary fibrosis (PF) caused by prolonged exposure to respirable coal dust (CD), with limited therapeutic options. Here, we explored the antifibrotic effects of metformin (Met) in CD-nanoparticle (CD-NP)-induced PF, focusing on its preventive and therapeutic potential. In vivo, Met was administered at different doses (low: 31.

Our previously proposed Ras dimerization model is consistent with recent details observed by NMR in that Raf activation is centered on the Ras/Raf dimer, distinct from one in which Ras activates Raf as a monomer with the Raf cysteine rich domain inserted in the membrane. We review mechanistic understanding of Raf activation within nanoclusters of Ras on the membrane, with a shift to dimers upon binding Raf. This sets the stage for a signaling platform composed of Ras/Raf and Galectin dimers that facilitates the release of Raf autoinhibition and folding of the Raf intrinsically disordered region between the Ras-binding domains and the kinase bound to 14-3-3 and MEK.
