Synthetic inhibition of SREBP2 and the mevalonate pathway blocks rhabdomyosarcoma tumor growth in vitro and in vivo and promotes chemosensitization by Silvia Codenotti, Michela Asperti, Maura Poli, Luisa Lorenzi, Alberto Pietrantoni, Matteo Cassandri, Francesco Marampon, Alessandro Fanzani

“…Fatostatin and lovastatin produced rapid attenuation of Erk1/2 and Akt1 signaling in RMS lines, and oral administration of lovastatin reduced tumor mass growth of xenografted RD cells in NOD/SCID mice. Finally, we found that forced Akt1 activation in RD cells was sufficient to drive SREBP2, HMGCR and SQLE protein expression, promoting increased susceptibility to MVP inhibitors. …”

The genus Entomophthora: bringing the insect destroyers into the twenty-first century by Carolyn Elya, Henrik H. De Fine Licht

“…We argue that the high host-specificity and obligate life-style of most Entomophthora species provides ample scope for having been shaped by close coevolution with insects despite the current general lack of such evidence. Finally, we propose six major directions for future Entomophthora research and in doing so hope to provide a foundation for future studies of these fungi and their interaction with insects.…”
