BAD regulates mammary gland morphogenesis by 4E-BP1-mediated control of localized translation in mouse and human models

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Elucidation of non-canonical protein functions can identify novel tissue homeostasis pathways. Herein, we describe a role for the Bcl-2 family member BAD in postnatal mammary gland morphogenesis.

Protein posttranslational modifications in health and diseases: Functions, regulatory mechanisms, and therapeutic implications

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 4, Issue 3, June 2023., 2023
The reversible and irreversible protein posttranslational modifications, such as acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, ubiquitination, glycosylation, SUMOylation, and redox modifications, are essential regulators in organisms and cells. This work systematically summarizes the features, regulatory mechanisms, substrates, functions, and related ...

The 15q11.2 BP1-BP2 Microdeletion (Burnside–Butler) Syndrome: In Silico Analyses of the Four Coding Genes Reveal Functional Associations with Neurodevelopmental Disorders

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
The 15q11.2 BP1-BP2 microdeletion (Burnside–Butler) syndrome is emerging as the most frequent pathogenic copy number variation (CNV) in humans associated with neurodevelopmental disorders with changes in brain morphology, behavior, and cognition. In this

Signaling pathways and intervention for therapy of type 2 diabetes mellitus

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 4, Issue 3, June 2023., 2023
Cao et al. provide a comprehensive overview of signaling pathways in the pathogenesis and therapy of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its complications. Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) represents one of the fastest growing epidemic metabolic disorders worldwide and is a strong contributor for a broad range of comorbidities, including ...

Age‐related changes to adipose tissue and peripheral neuropathy in genetically diverse HET3 mice differ by sex and are not mitigated by rapamycin longevity treatment

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 22, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
Genetically diverse HET3 mice display sex‐dependent peripheral neuropathy phenotypes as a result of age. Longevity treatment rapamycin was unable to attenuate denervation and worsened adipose tissue inflammation and fibrosis. Abstract Neural communication between the brain and adipose tissues regulates energy expenditure and metabolism through ...

The mTORC1/4E-BP1 axis represents a critical signaling node during fibrogenesis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Myofibroblasts are the key effector cells responsible for excessive extracellular matrix deposition in multiple fibrotic conditions, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The PI3K/Akt/mTOR axis has been implicated in fibrosis, with pan-PI3K/mTOR

Association of congenital cardiovascular malformation and neuropsychiatric phenotypes with 15q11.2 (BP1–BP2) deletion in the UK Biobank

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Human Genetics, 2020
Deletion of a non-imprinted 500kb genomic region at chromosome 15q11.2, between breakpoints 1 and 2 of the Prader–Willi/Angelman locus (BP1–BP2 deletion), has been associated in previous studies with phenotypes including congenital cardiovascular ...

4E-BP1 Protects Neurons from Misfolded Protein Stress and Parkinson's Disease Toxicity by Inducing the Mitochondrial Unfolded Protein Response

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2020
Decline of protein quality control in neurons contributes to age-related neurodegenerative disorders caused by misfolded proteins. 4E-BP1 is a key node in the regulation of protein synthesis, as activated 4E-BP1 represses global protein translation ...

CDK12 phosphorylates 4E-BP1 to enable mTORC1-dependent translation and mitotic genome stability

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2019
Here, Choi et al. show that CDK12, the RNA polymerase II C-terminal domain kinase, which regulates genome stability, expression of DNA repair genes, and cancer cell drug resistance, also phosphorylates the mRNA 5′ cap-binding repressor 4E-BP1 to promote ...
