Article Abstract

Tuberculosis, a major global health threat, necessitates understanding the pharmacological mechanisms of current drugs to combat multidrug resistance. In addition to alterations at the proteome level, the dynamic changes occurring at various levels of post-translational modifications (PTMs) following pharmacological intervention remain unclear. In our current study, we employed a quantitative proteomic approach to systematically analyze the dynamic molecular alterations at both the proteome and PTM levels in response to clinical drugs, including ethambutol, bedaquiline, moxifloxacin, and streptomycin. Our findings revealed enriched bioprocesses beyond known functions, phosphorylation-level changes in kinases and phosphatases, and increased acetylation levels with all four drugs. Overexpression of CobB in significantly increased its susceptibility to ethambutol, indicating enhanced drug sensitivity. Our study provides integrated multiomics resources for understanding the dynamic molecular characteristics and drug resistance associated with clinical drug interventions and proposes novel therapeutic strategies targeting the PTM levels.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) or their sub types, such as exosomes are valuable nano-biomolecules for immunotherapeutic, drug delivery, and diagnostic purposes. Freshwater and marine fish, including olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus), are highly susceptible to the contagious Viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV). In this study, we aimed to determine how infection alters the biological responses by analyzing the proteomic profiles of plasma-derived exosomes from phosphate buffered saline (PBS) injected (PBS-Exo) and VHSV challenged (VHSV-Exo) olive flounders at the initial stages infection.

Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a common malignant tumor with metabolic reprogramming and immune evasion features. δ-Aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD), a key enzyme in heme biosynthesis, has been implicated in cancer progression and treatment outcomes, but its role in RCC remains unclear.

Methods: This study integrated multi-omics datasets from TCGA, CPTAC, and GEO to analyze ALAD's expression, prognostic value, and functional implications in RCC.

Fever-range whole-body hyperthermia (frWBH) is widely used as an adjunctive therapy for various conditions, including rheumatic diseases, psychiatric disorders, and cancer. Despite its extensive application, the biological and immunological mechanisms underlying frWBH remain poorly understood. To investigate the molecular mechanisms driving its therapeutic effects, we conducted a comprehensive analysis encompassing miRNA expression profiling using RT-qPCR, white blood cell (WBC) count assessment, and plasma proteomic profiling immediately following frWBH treatment.

Introduction: Mutations in SORL1, encoding the sorting receptor Sortilin-related receptor with A-type repeats (SORLA), are found in individuals with Alzheimer's disease (AD). We studied SORLA, carrying a mutation in its ligand binding domain, to learn more about receptor functions relevant for human brain health.

Methods: We investigated consequences of SORLA expression in induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived human neurons and microglia, using unbiased proteome screens and functional cell assays.

The diabetic microenvironment intensifies M1-type macrophage-mediated inflammation and impairs bone regeneration. Glycophagy-a process of glycogen-selective autophagy that degrades intracellular glycogen into glucose-is essential for maintaining glucose homeostasis under metabolic stress. The role of glycophagy in regulating M1-type polarization remains unclear.
