  Actin cytoskeleton in protrusion Pushing force driving membrane protrusion is generated by polymerizing Ponesimod filaments organized either into branched networks or parallel bundles. Branched networks are assembled through Arp2/3 complex-dependent actin nucleation and drive protrusion of lamel

  Conflict of interest Acknowledgements Introduction The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway is an important intracellular signaling system that regulates diverse cellular functions, such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis [1]. Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (A

  2024-08-09

  

  To elucidate whether membrane fluidity changes could impact on signaling pathways, we examined the effects of Rh2 on the activation of Akt, a lipid raft-associated protein kinase, which promotes cell survival and blocks the apoptotic pathways. Upon pretreatment with 5 mM MβCD and in the absence of R

  2024-08-09

  

  In this study, we have generated new FRET reporters to screen all submembrane domains of AT1R for interactions with CaM. We identified a new CaM-binding domain on the receptor’s SMD2 (a.a. 125 – 141), confirmed interactions at SMD4JM (a.a. 309 – 327) and characterized the full interacting domain in

  2024-08-09

  

  Here we found that AMPK directly phosphorylates EZH2 at Thr311 to disrupt its interaction with SUZ12 and to inhibit PRC2 enzymatic activity, which is supported by the increased expression of PRC2-repressed genes. Furthermore, the T311E-EZH2 mutant that mimics AMPK-mediated phosphorylation status sup

  Cancer stem cells (CSCs) may have been first identified in teratocarcinomas [11], [12], with its initial clues date back to the 19th century [13]. Kleinsmith and Pierce [12] established the immortal pluripotent teratocarcinoma lines from a single transplanted multi-potent malignant cell, strongly su

  A previous study showed that miR-200c is involved in glucose-mediated pathological processes (Zhang, Guan, & Jin, 2017). Glucose metabolism is critical for the growth and proliferation of both normal GANT 58 and cancer cells, and reprogramming glucose metabolism now has been considered as a target

  Perhaps the discovery of this linkage has served to catapult much of the work on ABCA1, leaving its family member in need of a relationship with a defined human pathology. In this regard, there is by now a quite mature literature that suggests that ABCA2 may have been overlooked in terms of its impo

  2024-08-09

  

  Since non-lipoprotein-derived free cholesterol is recycled from the plasma membrane through the endosomal system through receptor-independent mechanisms, we wanted to determine whether ABCA2 could alter the trafficking of this source of free cholesterol. Our approach was to measure the effect of mob

  As an alternative to chronic receptor blockade, we have been targeting adenosine kinase (ADK) – an astrocyte-based enzyme that catalyses the phosphorylation of adenosine, as a means to modify ptc chemical adenosinergic signalling (Boison, 2006, Etherington et al., 2009). Up-regulating ADK facilitate

  Renal fibrosis is regarded as the final common pathway for most forms of progressive renal disease, and mouse UUO is a widely accepted experimental model of renal injury leading to extreme fibrosis localized to the interstitial compartment.

  Recently, several groups, including ours, have started to use the C. elegans multi-dendritic PVD neurons as a model system to dissect the molecular mechanisms of dendrite development. During larval development, PVD elaborates complex and stereotyped dendritic arbors by sequentially adding primary (1
