trim58

Tissue-specific manipulation of proteins is a long-standing objective in the field of targeted protein degradation, but still a distant prospect. Currently, the most successfully employed E3 ubiquitin ligases belong to the most ubiquitously expressed representatives. Unlocking of the TRIM58 ligase might represent a promising step toward tissue-specific PROTACs and molecular glue degraders.

Maternal exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5 ) is associated with adverse pregnancy and neonatal health outcomes. To explore the mechanism, we performed mRNA sequencing of neonatal cord blood. From an ongoing prospective cohort, Air Pollution on Pregnancy Outcome (APPO) study, 454 pregnant women from six centers between January 2021 and June 2022 were recruited. Individual PM2.5 exposure was calculated using a time-weighted average model. In the APPO study, age-matched cord blood samples from the High PM2...

Redirecting E3 ligases to neo-substrates, leading to their proteasomal disassembly, known as targeted protein degradation (TPD), has emerged as a promising alternative to traditional, occupancy-driven pharmacology. Although the field has expanded tremendously over the past years, the choice of E3 ligases remains limited, with an almost exclusive focus on CRBN and VHL. Here, we report the discovery of novel ligands to the PRY-SPRY domain of TRIM58, a RING ligase that is specifically expressed in erythroid precursor cells...

PURPOSE: Fetal hemoglobin (HbF) upregulation is a mitigating factor in β-hemoglobinopathies therapy like β-thalassemia and sickle cell diseases. Finding molecular mechanisms and the key regulators responsible for globin switching could be helpful to develop effective ways to HbF upregulation. In our prior in silico report, we identified a few factors that are likely to be responsible for globin switching. The goal of this study is to experimentally validate the factors. METHODS: We established K562 cell line with BCL11A knock down leading to increase in HBG1/2 using CRISPR/Cas9 system...

BACKGROUND: Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a common nasal inflammatory disorder that severely affects an individual's quality of life (QoL) and poses a heavy financial burden. In addition to routine treatments, probiotic intervention has emerged as a promising strategy for preventing and alleviating allergic diseases.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms of TRIM58 in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). CRC is one of the most common cancers of the digestive tract worldwide. The ubiquitin-proteasome system regulates many oncogenic or tumor-suppressive proteins. TRIM58, an E3 ubiquitin ligase and a member of the tripartite motif protein family, is a potential prognostic marker that indicates poor prognosis in cancer. Currently, the precise molecular mechanisms for the TRIM58-mediated CRC progression remain unclear...

PURPOSE: Effective chemotherapeutical agents for the treatment of meningiomas are still lacking. Previous in-vitro analyses revealed efficacy of decitabine (DCT), a DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) inhibitor established in the treatment of leukemia, in a yet undefined subgroup of meningiomas. METHODS: Effects of DCT on proliferation and viability was analyzed in primary meningioma cells by immunofluorescence and MTT assays, and cases were classified as drug responders and non-responders...

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a highly heterogeneous autoimmune disease characterized by multiple organ damage accompanied by the over-production of autoantibodies. Decreased intestinal flora diversity and disruption of homeostasis have been proven to be associated with pathogenesis of SLE. In previous study, a clinical trial was conducted to verify the safety and effectiveness of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in the treatment of SLE. To explore the mechanism of FMT in the treatment of SLE, we included 14 SLE patients participating in clinical trials, including 8 in responders group (Rs) and 6 in non-responders group (NRs), and collected peripheral blood DNA and serum...

BACKGROUND: Colon cancer is a frequently developed malignancy from the digestive system that leads to poor prognosis of patients due to its high recurrence and high metastasis. Dysregulation of ubiquitin-mediated signaling can result in tumor formation and metastasis. We aimed to develop prognostic markers related to ubiquitination in colon cancer and a risk assessment model based on these markers to improve the prognosis of colon cancer patients. METHODS: We constructed a prognosis-related model by performing differential expression analysis on ubiquitin-related genes in colon cancer patients based on public data and then undertaking Cox analysis, which selected 7 ubiquitin-related prognostic genes (TRIM58, ZBTB7C, TINCR, NEBL, WDR72, KCTD9, and KLHL35)...

BACKGROUND: Currently, how to successfully control refractory and metastatic diseases remains a fundamental goal for clinicians to improve therapeutic effects for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Several studies have discovered that TRIM58, a member of tripartite motif protein family, shows antitumor effect in multiple types of cancer. In this study, we aimed to further clarify the molecular regulatory network of TRIM58 and corresponding targets for NSCLC patients. METHODS: TRIM58 expression in clinical tumor tissue samples and cancer cell lines was examined...

INTRODUCTION: Tripartite motif-containing protein (TRIM) family members play crucial roles in carcinogenesis and chemotherapy resistance. In this study, we aimed to determine whether TRIM58 protein expression is related to patient responses to neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) and their survival outcome. METHODS: Immunohistochemistry was performed on female breast cancer samples from biopsies before NAT in Shenzhen Second People's Hospital. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression tests were used to analyze the association between TRIM58 protein expression and pathological complete response (pCR)...

BACKGROUND: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant hematopoietic disease that is usually incurable. However, the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) genes have not yet been established as a prognostic predictor for MM, despite their potential applications in other cancers. METHODS: RNA sequencing data and corresponding clinical information were acquired from Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation (MMRF)-COMMPASS and served as a training set (n=787). Validation of the prediction signature were conducted by the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases (n=1040)...

Chemotherapy resistance is that the most important reason behind of carcinoma treatment failure but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. Members of the tripartite motifcontaining protein (TRIM) family play crucial roles in the carcinogenesis and development of resistance against chemotherapy. Herein, we first confirmed that TRIM58 is highly expressed in triple-negative breast cancer tissues and drug-resistant MCF7/ADR cells. Furthermore, TRIM58 knockdown resulted in increased sensitivity of MCF7/ADR cells toward doxorubicin in vitro and in vivo...

Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) is a severe autoinflammatory disorder with a still not clearly defined molecular mechanism. To better understand the disease, we used scattered datasets from public domains and performed a weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) to identify key modules and hub genes underlying sJIA pathogenesis. Two gene expression datasets, GSE7753 and GSE13501, were used to construct the WGCNA. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses were applied to the genes and hub genes in the sJIA modules...
