SP is a short sequence present at the N-terminus of secreted proteins, such as LCN2, which facilitates transport to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Although SP is cleaved during the initial stages of translation in the ER, it influences the subsequent pathways of mature proteins produced in the ER lumen. ER-generated proteins are secreted or recruited to the autophagic pathway. To explore this further, we sought to determine the functional role of SP from a novel perspective. In this study, we fused LCN2 SP to the N-terminus of ubiquitin (Ub), an intracellular protein used for the proteasomal degradation of misfolded proteins and autophagic degradation of protein aggregates. We demonstrated that SP enabled the secretion of free Ub and facilitated the targeting of Ub conjugates to the autophagic pathway. We also found that SP affected intracellular Ub conjugate levels by regulating their degradation via the autophagic pathway. Furthermore, the ER-generated Ub (UbE) showed increased participation in polyubiquitinating protein aggregates generated under proteotoxic stress conditions, promoting the formation of perinuclear aggresome-like structures, and recruitment to the autophagosome. It is highly likely that UbE shares a common route with protein aggregates before being recruited to autophagosomes. Thus, this study suggests that UbE confers an altered trafficking pathway compared with endogenous Ub, thereby facilitating protein aggregate clearance without altering Ub's intrinsic biochemical activity.

A key feature of senescence paradigms is mitochondrial dysfunction, which involves not just a single defect but a series of coordinated changes in bioenergetics, redox homeostasis, mitochondrial quality control, and organelle interaction. Senescent cells often display a \"quantity-quality imbalance\" in their mitochondria: while the mitochondrial mass may increase, their efficiency in oxidative phosphorylation decreases, leading to a destabilized membrane potential (ΔΨm) and elevated levels of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS). These interrelated changes can exacerbate senescence through persistent stress signaling, impaired turnover of damaged mitochondrial components, and alterations in organelle contacts, such as those between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria, and between mitochondria and lysosomes. Given that these phenotypes differ depending on cell type, triggering factors, and timing, no single assay can adequately define senescenceassociated mitochondrial dysfunction. In this review, we present practical, complementary strategies that include extracellular flux-based respiration profiling, ATP output measurement, ΔΨm and ROS assessments, flux-based mitophagy reporters, quantitative network imaging, and contact-site assays. We propose minimal assay bundles that allow for a thorough multidimensional analysis. By establishing standardized, orthogonal measures of mitochondrial quantity and quality, we aim to enhance mechanistic understanding and facilitate the rational evaluation of mitochondria-targeted senolytic and senomorphic therapies.

Several studies have shown a significant association between HERVs and certain cancers. We focused on knocking out the HERV-R (ERV3-1) env gene in the DLD1 colon cancer cell line. A 208-bp deletion was confirmed by genomic PCR and DNA sequencing. As a result, HERV-R env gene expression was significantly lower in DLD1 HERV-R knockout (HERV-R KO) cells compared to control cells at both RNA and protein levels. Additionally, the invasion and migration abilities of HERV-R KO cells were significantly reduced. In vivo experiments on mice injected with HERV-R KO cells showed smaller tumor sizes compared to mice injected with control cells, suggesting that HERV-R env plays an important role in tumor growth. Further mRNA-seq analysis identified genes associated with cell invasion and migration. The STRING tool, which analyzes gene correlations, confirmed that HERV-R is linked to genes involved in cancer proliferation, migration, and invasion in colon cancer. This study suggests that the expression of the HERV-R env gene influences the tumorigenic properties of colon cancer, providing valuable evidence for potential clinical studies in colon cancer patients.

Overexpression of CRBN in a KMS20 xenograft model reversed its resistance to thalidomide, reduced tumor growth, and significantly extended the survival rate of the mice. Overexpression of CRBN in thalidomide-resistant KMS20 cells during thalidomide treatment led to effective cell death through the modulation of mitochondrial function and protein expression, mediated by AMPKα1 signaling. Conversely, both genetic and pharmacological knockdowns of CRBN rendered KMS26 cells resistant to thalidomide, indicating that CRBN level modulation directly influences mitochondrial functions.

While initially characterized by their role in casein (a type of milk protein) phosphorylation, subsequent investigations have unveiled their extensive involvement in fundamental biological processes, including cell division, maintenance of DNA integrity, programmed cell death, and the intricate regulation of gene transcription. Furthermore, CK1 significantly influences circadian rhythm mechanisms, highlighting its systemic regulatory importance. In mammals, multiple CK1 isoforms have been identified, each contributing to both physiological functions and various disease states. Dysregulation of CK1 activity is consistently associated with oncogenesis, where it promotes tumor cell proliferation, survival, metastasis, and resistance to therapeutic interventions. Emerging evidence also points to the critical relevance of CK1 in non-malignant conditions, such as neurodegenerative diseases, metabolic syndromes, and immune dysfunctions. In these conditions, CK1 often mediates pathogenic signaling through aberrant phosphorylation and the disruption of temporal gene expression. This review aims to re-examine the CK1 family as a versatile regulator that interacts with various pathological conditions, extending beyond its traditional classification as merely a signaling kinase. We provide an overview of the structural and functional properties of CK1 isoforms, summarize their relevance across a range of diseases, and explore novel possibilities for therapeutic interventions targeting this kinase family.
