Beyond hypoxia and ccRCC: the expanding universe of VHL novel targets and next-generation therapeutics

The von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene encodes the core substrate-recognition subunit of the Cullin2-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, regulating cellular oxygen sensing and proteostasis. While targeting the canonical VHL-hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) axis (e.g. belzutifan) has improved advanced clear cell renal cell carcin...

MAPK Pathway Activity and Heme Biosynthesis Gene Expression in IDH-Wildtype Glioblastoma: A Purity-Adjusted, Discovery-Validation Analysis

5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) promotes fluorescence-based resection of glioblastoma via protoporphyrin IX (PpIX); however, there is considerable heterogeneity in fluorescence intensity, limiting margin distinction. Cell-line studies show that stimulation of the MAPK pathway results in decreased PpIX levels through incr...
