    Abstract The cAMP/PKA and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade control many cellular processes and are highly regulated for optimal cellular responses upon external stimuli. Phosphodiesterase 8A (PDE8A) is an important regulator that inhibits signaling via cAMP-dependent PKA by hydrolyzing intracellular cAMP pool. Conversely, PDE8A activates the MAPK pathway by protecting CRAF/Raf1 kinase from PKA-mediated inhibitory phosphorylation at Ser259 residue, a binding site of scaffold protein 14-3-3. It still remains enigmatic as to how the cross-talk involving PDE8A regulation influences cAMP/PKA and MAPK signaling pathways. Here, we report that PDE8A interacts with 14-3-3ζ in both yeast and mammalian system, and this interaction is enhanced upon the activation of PKA, which phosphorylates PDE8A's Ser359 residue. Biophysical characterization of phospho-Ser359 peptide with 14-3-3ζ protein further supports their interaction. Strikingly, 14-3-3ζ reduces the catalytic activity of PDE8A, which upregulates the cAMP/PKA pathway while the MAPK pathway is downregulated. Moreover, 14-3-3ζ in complex with PDE8A and cAMP-bound regulatory subunit of PKA, RIα, delays the deactivation of PKA signaling. Our results define 14-3-3ζ as a molecular switch that operates signaling between cAMP/PKA and MAPK by associating with PDE8A.

    Abstract The Retinoid X receptor alpha-Thyroid hormone receptor beta (RXRα-THRβ) heterodimer plays an important role in physiological function of humans specially in the growth and development. Extensive MD-simulation studies on the aquated complexes of modelled RXRα-THRβ heterodimer with DNA-duplex have indicated the role of some conserved/semiconserved water molecules in the complexation process in presence or absence of Triiodothyronine (T3) and 9-cis retinoic acid (9CR) in the respective Ligand Binding Domain (LBD) domain. Among the seventeen conserved/semi-conserved water molecules, the W1-W4 water centers have been observed to mediate the interaction between the residues of A-chain (DBD of RXR) to consensus sequence (C-chain) of DNA. The W5-W8 water centers involve in recognition of the residues of B-chain (DBD of THR) to C-chain of DNA. The W9-W13 centers have connected the different residues of B-chain (THR) to D-chain of DNA through H-bonds, whereas W14-W17 water molecules were involved in the interaction of A-chain

    Abstract Thyroid hormone receptor (THR) belongs to the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily that is activated by binding of appropriate ligand molecules (thyroid hormones). These receptors directly bind to specific DNA sequences for gene expression, which is essential for metabolism, homeostasis, and the development of organisms, making it an important drug target. Extensive MD-simulation studies of triiodothyronine (T3) docked modeled rnTHRβ1 structures have indicated the presence of twelve conserved water molecules at the DNA-DBD (DNA binding domain) interface. The W1-W5 water centers have been involved in the recognition between the A-chain of DBD to C-chain of DNA, W6 and W7 mediated the interaction between A-chain of DBD and D-chain of DNA, W8 and W9 recognized the B-chain of DBD and C-chain of DNA, and W9-W12 centers conjugated the residues of B-chain of DBD to D-chain of DNA through hydrogen bonds. The conformation flexibility of Phe272 and Met313 residues in the absence of T3 at the LBD (ligand-binding domain) region have been observed and reported.

    Abstract The spread of novel coronavirus strain, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has now spread worldwide and effecting the entire human race. The viral genetic material is transcripted and replicated by 3 C-like protease, as a result, it is an important drug target for COVID-19. Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) report promising results against this drug target so, we perform molecular docking followed by MD-simulation studies of HCQ and modelled some ligand (Mod-I and Mod-II) molecules with SARS-CoV-2-main protease which reveals the structural organization of the active site residues and presence of a conserve water-mediated catalytic triad that helps in the recognition of Mod-I/II ligand molecules. The study may be helpful to gain a detailed structural insight on the presence of water-mediated catalytic triad which could be useful for inhibitor modelling. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

    Abstract Background: Addressing the mental health needs of cancer patients and their caregivers improves the quality of care the patient receives in any cancer care ecosystem. International practice currently encourages integrated care for physical and mental health in oncology. The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has affected the delivery of healthcare services across the world. The current research paper is on the psycho-oncology service provision for hospitalised cancer patients before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Methods: All patients who were referred to psycho-oncology services during the study period of 1 month, in the two successive years of 2019 and 2020, were included in the study. Retrospective data were collected from the centralised electronic medical records for patients. Data included cancer diagnosis, reason for admission, admitting team and reason for a psychiatric referral. Other parameters that were measured were the timing of the psychiatric assessment, psychiatric diagnosis and psycho-oncology care provided, which included psychological interventions carried out and medications prescribed. The overall institutional data on cancer care provision are also presented in brief to provide context to the psycho-oncology services.
    Results: Integrated psycho-oncology services reviewed and managed patients round the year in the hospital where the study was conducted. During the 1-month study period, in 2019 and 2020, the total number of hospitalised cancer patients managed by the services was 74 and 52, respectively. During the study period of 2020, 292 patients with cancer who were being treated in the hospital had tested positive for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) tested on reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and 50 members of healthcare staff also tested positive. The most common diagnosis of patients was found to be stress-related adjustment disorder [16/74 (21.6%) in 2019 and 16/52 (30.8%) in 2020]. The paper discusses the common stressors voiced by the patients and their caregivers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Several challenges of providing psychological services were overcome by the team and the paper touches upon the common strategies that were used during the pandemic. Most patients did not need medications, but a significant minority did benefit from treatment with psychotropic medications. Simple psychological interventions such as sleep hygiene, supportive therapy sessions and psycho-education benefited many patients and were feasible even during the pandemic.
    Conclusion: The provision of psycho-oncology services to cancer patients and their caregivers was important before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.Watch a video which illustrates the psycho-oncology service provisions in an oncology centre in Eastern India during the COVID-19 pandemic here: https://ecancer.org/en/video/9707-psycho-oncology-service-provisions-for-hospitalised-cancer-patients-before-and-during-the-covid19-pandemic.

    Abstract Although a number of anti-inflammatory drugs have been discovered and developed to treat diseases associated with acute and chronic inflammation, many anti-inflammatories cause adverse side effects. The quinoline framework has emerged as a new template for the design and identification of novel anti-inflammatory agents. These agents are classified based on the number of substituents present on the quinoline ring or compounds containing a quinoline ring fused to other heterocycles. This review focuses on the discovery of various quinoline derivatives as inhibitors of cyclooxygenase (COX), phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) and tumour necrosis factor-α converting enzyme (TACE), along with transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) antagonists.

    Abstract The Ku protein, a heterodimer of Ku70 and Ku80, binds to chromosomal replication origins maximally at G1-phase and plays an essential role in assembly of origin recognition complex. However, the mechanism regulating such a critical periodic activity of Ku remained unknown. Here, we establish human Ku70 as a novel target of cyclin B1-Cdk1, which phosphorylates it in a Cy-motif dependent manner. Interestingly, cyclin E1- and A2-Cdk2 also phosphorylate Ku70, and as a result, the protein remains in a phosphorylated state during S-M phases of cell cycle. Intriguingly, the phosphorylation of Ku70 by cyclin-Cdks abolishes the interaction of Ku protein with replication origin due to disruption of the dimer. Furthermore, Ku70 is dephosphorylated in G1-phase, when Ku interacts with replication origin maximally. Strikingly, the over-expression of Ku70 with non-phosphorylable Cdk targets enhances the episomal replication of Ors8 origin and induces rereplication in HeLa cells, substantiating a preventive role of Ku phosphorylation in premature and untimely licensing of replication origin. Therefore, periodic phosphorylation of Ku70 by cyclin-Cdks prevents the interaction of Ku with replication origin after initiation events in S-phase and the dephosphorylation at the end of mitosis facilitates its participation in pre-replication complex formation.
