Heat Shock Transcription Factor 1 Inhibits Expression of IL-6 through Activating Transcription Factor 3 [PDF]
Abstract The febrile response is a complex physiological reaction to disease, including a cytokine-mediated increase in body temperature and the activation of inflammatory systems. Fever has beneficial roles in terms of disease prognosis, partly by suppressing the expression of inflammatory cytokines. However, the molecular mechanisms

Sirtuin 6 promotes eosinophil differentiation by activating GATA‐1 transcription factor
AbstractThere is evidence emerging that exposure to cold temperatures enhances alternative activation of macrophages in white adipose tissue (WAT), which promotes adipocyte beiging and adaptive thermogenesis. Although we recently reported that NAD+‐dependent deacetylase sirtuin 6 (Sirt6) drives alternatively activated (M2) macrophage polarization, the ...

Krüppel-like factor 6 is a transcriptional activator of autophagy in acute liver injury [PDF]
AbstractKrüppel-like factor 6 (KLF6) is a transcription factor and tumor suppressor. We previously identified KLF6 as mediator of hepatocyte glucose and lipid homeostasis. The loss or reduction of KLF6 is linked to the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma, but its contribution to liver regeneration and repair in acute liver injury are lacking so far.

Background: Previous studies showed that proline-rich polypeptide (PRP-1) is a ligand for innate immunity toll-like receptors (TLR), and an inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) which induces the death of chondrosarcoma cancer

Lipopolysaccharide induces nitric oxide synthase expression and platelet-activating factor increases nitric oxide production in human fetal membranes in culture [PDF]
Platelet-activating factor and nitric oxide may be involved in the initiation of human labour as inflammatory mediators. The aim of this study was to test whether platelet-activating factor and lipopolysaccharide were able to induce nitric oxide synthase

The Transcriptional Activator Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 6 Regulates Liver Gene Expression [PDF]
The hepatocyte nuclear factor 3(alpha) (HNF-3(alpha)), -3(beta), and -3(gamma) proteins share homology in the winged-helix/fork head DNA binding domain and mediate hepatocyte-enriched transcription of numerous genes whose expression is necessary for organ function. In this work, we identify a liver-enriched transcription factor, HNF-6, which recognizes

The participation of activating transcription factor 6 alpha, ATF6α, in Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundAlzheimer’s disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia in elderly humans worldwide. More than 40 million people currently suffer from AD, and this prevalence tends to increase considerably in the coming decades due to increased longevity.
