Norovirus Exploits NINJ1 for Selective Viral Protein Secreti
2026-04-12
Song et al. reveal that murine norovirus co-opts the cell death effector NINJ1 to specifically mediate secretion of the viral protein NS1, a process requiring caspase-3 and distinct from bulk DAMP release. This finding advances understanding of viral manipulation of host cell death machinery and identifies NINJ1 as a critical node in unconventional protein secretion.

Strategic Modulation of P-glycoprotein: Zosuquidar (LY335...
2026-04-10
Multidrug resistance (MDR) remains a formidable barrier in oncology, undermining the efficacy of chemotherapies and impeding clinical progress. At the heart of MDR lies P-glycoprotein (P-gp), an ATP-binding cassette transporter that actively effluxes chemotherapeutic agents from cancer cells. Zosuquidar (LY335979) 3HCl, a potent and selective P-gp inhibitor, offers an innovative route to reverse MDR and restore drug sensitivity in challenging cancers such as acute myeloid leukemia and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. This thought-leadership article integrates mechanistic insights, experimental validation, competitive benchmarking, and translational strategies, providing researchers with actionable guidance to leverage Zosuquidar for next-generation MDR research.
