Plasmodium falciparum OTU‐like cysteine protease (PfOTU) is essential for apicoplast homeostasis and associates with noncanonical role of Atg8

TL;DR: Functional role of a novel ovarian tumour unit (OTU) domain‐containing cysteine protease of Plasmodium falciparum is identified and it is shown that the PfOTU is involved in apicoplast homeostasis and associates with the noncanonical function of Atg8 in maintenance of parasite apICoplast.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of endolysosomes and pH in the pathogenesis and treatment of glioblastoma.

TL;DR: Glioblastoma multiforme is a Grade IV astrocytoma with an aggressive disease course and a uniformly poor prognosis and the treatment options include a combination of surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy with the alkylating agent temozolomide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Importance of measuring endolysosome, cytosolic, and extracellular pH in understanding the pathogenesis of and possible treatments for glioblastoma multiforme

TL;DR: The extracellular environment near GBM tumors is acidified and is relevant to the pathogenesis of GBM because decreased pH promotes tumor cell invasion, increases angiogenesis, decreases immune surveillance, and increases resistance to possible treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Apolipoprotein E isoform dependently affects Tat-mediated HIV-1 LTR transactivation

TL;DR: Findings help explain observed differential effects of ApoEs on HIV-1 infectivity and the prevalence of HAND in people living with HIV- 1 infection and suggest that ApoE mimetic peptides and Apo E4 structure modulator might be used as a therapeutic strategy against HIV-2 infection and associated neurocognitive disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

An essential vesicular-trafficking phospholipase mediates neutral lipid synthesis and contributes to hemozoin formation in Plasmodium falciparum.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that the transient downregulation of the parasite phospholipase (P. falciparum lysophospholipases, PfLPL1) caused a significant reduction of neutral lipids in the food vacuole-associated lipid bodies, which hindered the conversion of heme, originating from host haemoglobin, into inert hemozoin.
