Ulk4 regulates GABAergic signaling and anxiety-related behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Excitation/inhibition imbalance has been proposed as a fundamental mechanism in the pathogenesis of neuropsychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders, in which copy number variations of the Unc-51 like kinase 4 (ULK4) gene encoding a putative Serine ...

Combined therapy with pirfenidone and nintedanib counteracts fibrotic silicosis in mice

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 182, Issue 5, Page 1143-1163, March 2025.
Abstract Background and Purpose Pneumoconiosis, especially silicosis, is a prevalent occupational disease with substantial global economic implications and lacks a definitive cure. Both pneumoconiosis and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are interstitial lung diseases, which share many common physiological characteristics.

Insights into RNA‐mediated pathology in new mouse models of Huntington's disease

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 38, Issue 23, 15 December 2024.
The behavioral and molecular characterization was performed for Huntington's disease mouse models expressing a fragment of the human HTT gene, with mutation of ~100 CAG repeats, in the nontranslated version (HD/100CAG) and the translated version (HD/100Q). Abstract Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative polyglutamine (polyQ) disease resulting

A forskolin-mediated increase in cAMP promotes T helper cell differentiation into the Th1 and Th2 subsets rather than into the Th17 subset

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
The cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling pathway is involved in various physiological and pathophysiological processes. Forskolin (FSK), a labdane diterpene well known as an activator of cAMP production, is suggested to possess significant ...

Drivers of genomic diversity and phenotypic development in early phases of domestication in Hermetia illucens

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 756-776, December 2024.
Random drift rather than selection is the primary evolutionary force driving genomic and phenotypic variation in BSF populations during early phases of domestication. Functional trade‐offs between production and fitness traits were observed in BSF populations.

A melanocyte lineage program confers resistance to MAP kinase pathway inhibition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BRAFV600E-mutant malignant melanomas depend on RAF/MEK/ERK (MAPK) signaling for tumor cell growth1. RAF and MEK inhibitors show remarkable clinical efficacy in BRAFV600E melanoma2, 3; however, resistance to these agents remains a formidable challenge2, 4.

Paraoxonase‐2 agonist vutiglabridin promotes autophagy activation and mitochondrial function to alleviate non‐alcoholic steatohepatitis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 181, Issue 19, Page 3717-3742, October 2024.
Abstract Background and Purpose Only limited therapeutic agents have been developed for non‐alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Glabridin, a promising anti‐obesity candidate, has only limited druggability due to its low in vivo chemical stability and bioavailability.

Integration of multiomics data identifies candidate genes influencing pH levels in Beijing Black pigs

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 260-272, August 2024.
To explore the genetic mechanism of pH values, we measured the pH values at 2 h (pH2h) and 24 h (pH24h) postmortem in the longissimus dorsi muscle of Beijing Black pigs. A total of 614 Beijing Black pigs were genotyped by the Illumina Porcine 50K SNP Chip. We conducted a genome‐wide association study and RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) analysis.

Associations between Gene-Gene Interaction and Overweight/Obesity of 12-Month-Old Chinese Infants

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2022
Background Childhood overweight and obesity (OW/OB) is a worldwide public health problem, and its genetic risks remain unclear. Objectives To investigate risks of OW/OB associated with genetic variances in SEC16B rs543874 and rs10913469, BDNF rs11030104 ...
