research Effects of Potassium Channel Modulators on the Responses of Mammalian Slowly Adapting Mechanoreceptors
Potassium channel modulators mostly increase the activity of rat whisker mechanoreceptors.
research Targeting noncanonical nuclear factor kappa B signalling in CYLD cutaneous syndrome by selective inhibition of IκB kinase alpha
The study investigates NF-κB signalling in CYLD cutaneous syndrome (CCS) tumours to identify potential drug targets. Researchers used transcriptomics, proteomics, and single-cell RNA sequencing on patient-derived CCS tumour cells, revealing evidence of non-canonical NF-κB signalling with increased p100 to p52 processing and RelB protein expression. IκB kinase alpha (IKKα) was identified as a candidate target, and a novel IKKα inhibitor (SU1644) was tested on CCS tumour spheroid cultures, showing reduced tumour viability. The findings support the potential use of topical IKKα inhibitors as a preventive treatment for CCS.
