ABSTRACT Resistance to chemotherapy, which is demonstrated in almost every patient with advanced‐stage lung cancer (ALC), underscores an urgent need to unravel the underlying molecular mechanisms and identify novel strategies to overcome drug resistance. In the present study, an attempt was made to identify epigenetic targets and modulators that can be

ABCC6- a new player in cellular cholesterol and lipoprotein metabolism? [PDF]
Dysregulations in cholesterol and lipid metabolism have been linked to human diseases like hypercholesterolemia, atherosclerosis or the metabolic syndrome. Many ABC transporters are involved in trafficking of metabolites derived from these pathways.

Nucleic Acids as Emerging Regulators of Calcium Phosphate Biomineralization
Calcium phosphate biomineralization has traditionally been considered a protein‐regulated process. This review highlights the emerging role of nucleic acids, which interact with mineral phases through adsorption, coprecipitation, and templating, thereby influencing crystal nucleation and growth.

Impact of the C-terminus on ABCC6 degradation.
ABCC6 degradation was evaluated after treatment with a proteasome inhibitor (lactacystin) or a combination of lysosomal protease inhibitors, (leupeptin and pepstatin) and assessed by western blotting.

Protective Effect of Phytic Acid in Cardiovascular Diseases: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a cluster of ailments that impact the heart and blood vessels and are a primary public health problem of mortality on a global scale. Phytic acid, a dietary constituent frequently present in foods like seeds, has been linked to many pharmacological attributes, including anti‐cancer, antioxidant, anti ...

Abcc6 deficiency causes increased infarct size and apoptosis in a mouse cardiac ischemia-reperfusion model. [PDF]
ABCC6 genetic deficiency underlies pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) in humans, characterized by ectopic calcification, and early cardiac disease. The spectrum of PXE has been noted in Abcc6-deficient mice, including dystrophic cardiac calcification.

Atherogenic Diet Accelerates Ectopic Mineralization in a Mouse Model of Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum
. Objective:. Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a multisystem heritable disorder caused by mutations in the Abcc6 gene. The disease is characterized by ectopic mineralization of the skin, eyes, and arterial blood vessels. Previous studies have suggested
