More than Just a Garbage Can: Emerging Roles of the Lysosome as an Anabolic Organelle in Skeletal Muscle

The authors describe the molecular regulation of lysosome biogenesis and detail the emerging anabolic roles of the lysosome in skeletal muscle with particular emphasis on how these roles may mediate adaptations to chronic resistance exercise.

The Immunology of Renal Cell Carcinoma

Renal cell carcinoma is considered to be an immunogenic tumor but is known to mediate immune dysfunction in large part by eliciting the infiltration of immune-inhibitory cells, such as regulatory T cells and myeloid-derived suppressor cells, into the tumor microenvironment.

MicroRNA‐Related Single‐Nucleotide Polymorphisms and Breast Cancer

The authors document the well‐known miR‐SNPs that are known to be associated with breast cancer. Two principals are discussed: (a) SNPs in the target genes of microRNAs and the alteration in gene expression due to this phenomenon; (b) changes based on the SNPs in the microRNA coding region and the impact on their interaction with target messenger RNA.
