    Abstract Treatment success of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is often hindered by cisplatin resistance. As inherent and acquired therapy resistance counteracts improvement in long-term survival, novel multi-targeting strategies triggering cancer cell apoptosis are urgently required. Here, we identify the vitamin D receptor (VDR) as being significantly overexpressed in tumors of HNSCC patients (n = 604;

    Abstract The recent discovery and structure determination of a novel ubiquitin-like dimerization domain in protein kinase D (PKD) has significant implications for its activation. PKD is a serine/threonine kinase activated by the lipid second messenger diacylglycerol (DAG). It is an essential and highly conserved protein that is implicated in plasma membrane directed trafficking processes from the trans-Golgi network. However, many open questions surround its mechanism of activation, its localization, and its role in the biogenesis of cargo transport carriers. In reviewing this field, the focus is primarily on the mechanisms that control the activation of PKD at precise locations in the cell. In light of the new structural findings, the understanding of the mechanisms underlying PKD activation is critically evaluated, with particular emphasis on the role of dimerization in PKD autophosphorylation, and the provenance and recognition of the DAG that activates PKD.

    Abstract The degradation of the pentoses D-xylose, L-arabinose and D-ribose in the domain of archaea, in Haloferax volcanii and in Haloarcula and Sulfolobus species, has been shown to proceed via oxidative pathways to generate α-ketoglutarate. Here, we report that the haloarchaeal Halorhabdus species utilize the bacterial-type non-oxidative degradation pathways for pentoses generating xylulose-5-phosphate. The genes of these pathways are each clustered and were constitutively expressed. Selected enzymes involved in D-xylose degradation, xylose isomerase and xylulokinase, and those involved in L-arabinose degradation, arabinose isomerase and ribulokinase, were characterized. Further, D-ribose degradation in Halorhabdus species involves ribokinase, ribose-5-phosphate isomerase and D-ribulose-5-phosphate-3-epimerase. Ribokinase of Halorhabdus tiamatea and ribose-5-phosphate isomerase of Halorhabdus utahensis were characterized. This is the first report of pentose degradation via the bacterial-type pathways in archaea, in Halorhabdus species that likely acquired these pathways from bacteria. The utilization of bacterial-type pathways of pentose degradation rather than the archaeal oxidative pathways generating α-ketoglutarate might be explained by an incomplete gluconeogenesis in Halorhabdus species preventing the utilization of α-ketoglutarate in the anabolism.

    Abstract The haloarchaeon Haloferax volcanii was found to grow on D-galactose as carbon and energy source. Here we report a comprehensive analysis of D-galactose catabolism in H. volcanii. Genome analyses indicated a cluster of genes encoding putative enzymes of the DeLey-Doudoroff pathway for D-galactose degradation including galactose dehydrogenase, galactonate dehydratase, 2-keto-3-deoxygalactonate kinase and 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogalactonate (KDPGal) aldolase. The recombinant galactose dehydrogenase and galactonate dehydratase showed high specificity for D-galactose and galactonate, respectively, whereas KDPGal aldolase was promiscuous in utilizing KDPGal and also the C4 epimer 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate as substrates. Growth studies with knock-out mutants indicated the functional involvement of galactose dehydrogenase, galactonate dehydratase and KDPGal aldolase in D-galactose degradation. Further, the transcriptional regulator GacR was identified, which was characterized as an activator of genes of the DeLey-Doudoroff pathway. Finally, genes were identified encoding components of an ABC transporter and a knock-out mutant of the substrate binding protein indicated the functional involvement of this transporter in D-galactose uptake. This is the first report of D-galactose degradation via the DeLey-Doudoroff pathway in the domain of archaea.

    Abstract: ... D immediately after PTx on the development of hypocalcemia.: Materials and methods ...

    Abstract Background: The period after parathyroidectomy (PTx) in dialysis patients is characterized by periods of severe hypocalcemia. This study aims to investigate the effect of high doses of active vitamin D immediately after PTx on the development of hypocalcemia.
    Materials and methods: We retrospectively reviewed 111 patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism receiving subtotal PTx between 2010 and 2019. A high dose group "HDG" (n = 67) receiving 12 µg alfacalcidol in combination with 8.550 mg calcium acetate per day, which was then adapted according to lab values, was compared with a low dose group "LDG" (n = 44) receiving up to 4 µg alfacalcidol per day. The laboratory values were recorded up to ten weeks postoperatively.
    Results: The assumed drops in parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcium were observed in both groups after PTx. We observed significantly lower calcium values in the LDG between days 4 and 18 postoperatively than in the HDG (
    Conclusion: The period after PTx in dialysis patients is characterized by an expected drop in PTH and calcium within the first days. Ongoing high turnover is observed in the 2nd and 3rd week after PTx. Administering high doses of alfacalcidol combined with calcium acetate diminishes the episodes of severe hypocalcemia and the need for intravenous calcium.
