Designing novel inhibitors against cyclopropane mycolic acid synthase 3 (PcaA): targeting dormant state ofMycobacterium tuberculosis

Jyoti Verma et al.

Summary: Mycobacterium tuberculosis can survive in the host for years in a dormant state, suppressing the host immune system and causing latent tuberculosis. Cyclopropanation of mycolic acids is essential for the persistence and virulence of the bacteria, with PcaA identified as a potential target for developing inhibitors against dormant bacilli.

MAIT cell-directed therapy ofMycobacterium tuberculosisinfection

Shunsuke Sakai et al.

Summary: The study found that MAIT cells mount minimal responses following Mtb infection, but MAIT cell expansion during chronic infection can reduce bacterial loads. The 5-OP-RU vaccination failed to protect against Mtb challenge, but MAIT cells play a role in delaying T cell priming.

Targeting of glioma stem-like cells with a parthenolide derivative ACT001 through inhibition of AEBP1/PI3K/AKT signaling

Yanli Hou et al.

Summary: The study identifies ACT001 as a potential treatment strategy targeting GSCs by regulating AEBP1 signaling, which shows higher efficacy in inhibiting GSCs than normal human astrocytes. AEBP1 is identified as a putative target of ACT001, and its depletion can inhibit GSC proliferation and glioma sphere formation.

Cytosolic Ca2+ transients during pulsed focused ultrasound generate reactive oxygen species and cause DNA damage in tumor cells

Robert B. Rosenblatt et al.

Summary: The study found that non-ablative pulsed focused ultrasound (pFUS) directly induces DNA damage in various tumor cell types by triggering superoxide and subsequent H2O2 formation through cytosolic calcium transients. These results support the potential clinical utility of pFUS.
