Arenavirus Z protein as an antiviral target: virus inactivation and protein oligomerization by zinc finger-reactive compounds

TL;DR: The investigations described here illustrate the potential of the Z protein as a promising target for therapy and the prospects of theZ-reactive compounds to prevent arenavirus dissemination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carbon Source and Myc Expression Influence the Antiproliferative Actions of Metformin

TL;DR: It is shown that the effect of exposure of several transformed cell lines to metformin varies with carbon source, and it is suggested that meetingformin-induced increase in glycolysis attenuates the antiproliferative effects of the compound.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhanced translation expands the endo-lysosome size and promotes antigen presentation during phagocyte activation

TL;DR: It is shown that the endo-lysosomal system undergoes an expansion in volume and holding capacity during phagocyte activation within 2 h of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) stimulation, and a hitherto unappreciated mechanism of acute organelle expansion via mTOR Complex 1 (mTORC1)-dependent increase in translation, which appears to be mediated by both S6Ks and 4E-BPs.
