Adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein potentiates toxic lipids-induced endoplasmic reticulum stress via suppression of JAK2-dependent autophagy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Oral PresentationINTRODUCTION: Chronic inflammation is the key link between obesity and its related metabolic complications. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is the potent trigger of inflammation in obese adipose tissue but how ER stress in immune cells

Post‐Translational Modifications in Animal Circadian Clocks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Circadian clocks coordinate physiology with daily environmental cycles through conserved transcriptional–translational feedback loops. This review summarizes how post‐translational modifications fine‐tune clock function, highlights the evolutionary convergence of circadian timekeeping in Drosophila and mammals, and emphasizes the central of these ...

Cofilin Phosphorylation Mediates Proliferation in Response to Platelet-Derived Growth Factor-BB in Rat Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
Cofilin, an actin-binding protein, is essential for a variety of cell responses. In this study, we investigated the correlation between proliferation and cofilin phosphorylation in response to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in rat aortic smooth ...

Subconjunctival Injection of XG-102, a c-Jun N-Terminal Kinase Inhibitor Peptide, in the Treatment of Endotoxin-Induced Uveitis in Rats. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Purpose: XG-102, a TAT-coupled dextrogyre peptide inhibiting the c-Jun N-terminal kinase, was shown efficient in the treatment of experimental uveitis. Preclinical studies are now performed to determine optimal XG-102 dose and route of administration in ...

A Novel Transcriptional Slippage Mechanism Rescues Dystrophin Expression from a DMD Frameshift Variant

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Pathogenic DMD variants usually follow the reading‐frame rule: out‐of‐frame changes cause Duchenne muscular dystrophy, whereas in‐frame ones produce Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). We report a 23‐year‐old man with BMD‐like weakness, calf hypertrophy, elevated creatine kinase, and dilated cardiomyopathy.

CXCL12 induces connective tissue growth factor expression in human lung fibroblasts through the Rac1/ERK, JNK, and AP-1 pathways.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
CXCL12 (stromal cell-derived factor-1, SDF-1) is a potent chemokine for homing of CXCR4+ fibrocytes to injury sites of lung tissue, which contributes to pulmonary fibrosis. Overexpression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) plays a critical role in

OGFRL1 deficiency causes CRMO via pathological osteoclastogenesis, with therapeutic response to TNF inhibitor

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objectives To verify the pathogenesis of the OGFRL1 loss‐of‐function variant (c.30del, p. F10Ffs*110) identified in a CRMO patient and investigate the underlying mechanism. Methods Whole exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing were performed to identify and confirm the variant.

Bacterial Pigments as Potential Antitumor Agents Against Gastrointestinal Cancers: A Comprehensive Systematic Review

open access: yesBiotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gastrointestinal cancers (GICs) constitute one of the leading causes of cancer‐related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite currently available therapeutic strategies, new approaches and procedures are needed for their prevention and treatment.

Calcium retinoate nanoparticle mediated microglial polarization to regulate inflammatory microenvironment for therapy of neuroinflammatory disease

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
A nano‐drug based on retinoic acid and calcium is developed, which can be rapily endocytosed by microglia and decomposed into small molecule/ion storms in lysosomes. This nano‐drug regulates microglial phenotype switching from M1 to M2 while indirectly guiding neuronal differentiation of endogenous neural stem cells, thereby ameliorating ...
