REDD1 expression in podocytes facilitates renal inflammation and pyroptosis in streptozotocin-induced diabetic nephropathy by Siddharth Sunilkumar, Sandeep M. Subrahmanian, Esma I. Yerlikaya, Allyson L. Toro, Edward W. Harhaj, Scot R. Kimball, Michael D. Dennis

“…In this investigation, we evaluated the hypothesis that hyperglycemic conditions augment the pro-inflammatory immune response in the kidney by promoting podocyte-specific expression of the stress response protein regulated in development and DNA damage response 1 (REDD1). In support of the hypothesis, streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes increased REDD1 protein abundance in the kidney concomitant with renal immune cell infiltration. …”

Comprehensive analysis of proteomic and biochemical responses of Daphnia magna to short-term exposure to polystyrene microplastic particles by Young Sang Kwon, Chang-Beom Park, Seung-Min Lee, Jin-Woo Park, Yeong-Jin Kim, Jong-Hwan Kim, Jong-Su Seo

“…The upregulation of endocytosis-related proteins, including caveolin-1 (CAV1) and phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K), highlights their role in actively internalizing and compartmentalizing MP, potentially as a protective mechanism against oxidative damage. These findings reveal that short-term MP exposure triggers a complex, multi-pathway stress response in D. magna, underscoring potential vulnerabilities that could impact broader ecological dynamics. …”

TNBC response to paclitaxel phenocopies interferon response which reveals cell cycle-associated resistance mechanisms by Nicholas L. Calistri, Tiera A. Liby, Zhi Hu, Hongmei Zhang, Mark A. Dane, Sean M. Gross, Laura M. Heiser

“…We found that escalating doses of paclitaxel resulted in multinucleation, promotion of senescence, and initiation of DNA damage induced apoptosis. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of TNBC cells after paclitaxel treatment revealed upregulation of innate immune programs canonically associated with interferon response and downregulation of cell cycle progression programs. …”
