Yak milk improves retinoic acid-induced osteoporosis by promoting intestinal calcium absorption

Journal of Dairy Science
: Yak milk is a unique nutritional quality milk with health-promoting benefits. In this study, we investigated the effect of yak milk on intestinal calcium absorption in mice with retinoic acid-induced osteoporosis (OP) and in the Caco-2 cell model ...

Evaluating the involvement of autolysosomes in the nuclear translocation of fluorescent proteins

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Endogenously expressed fluorescent proteins can be degraded by autophagy and transported to cell nuclei via the nuclear pore complex. But in some cell lines, for example, HeLa cells which are positive for immunoreactivity of a receptor ligand, such as UCN I, in cell nuclei, fusion of autolysosome with the nuclear envelope is involved in the nuclear ...

Novel model of calcium and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate regulation of InsP3 receptor channel gating in native endoplasmic reticulum

Biological Research, 2004
The InsP3R Ca2+-release channel has biphasic dependence on cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i). InsP3 activates gating primarily by reducing high [Ca2+]i inhibition.

LRRK2 regulates voltage-gated calcium channel function.

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2016
Voltage-gated Ca2+ (CaV) channels enable Ca2+ influx in response to membrane depolarization. CaV2.1 channels are localized to the presynaptic membrane of many types of neurons where they are involved in triggering neurotransmitter release.

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Treatment with KCL‐286, a first‐in‐class retinoic acid receptor‐β (RARβ) agonist, ameliorates neuronal DNA damage and inflammation in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Repair of neuronal DNA damage in Alzheimer's disease by KCL‐286. (A) Amyloid‐β oligomers and plaques impair neuronal DNA repair pathways, leading to DNA double‐strand breaks and glial activation. (B) KCL‐286 activates RARβ/RXR signalling via retinoic acid response elements (RAREs), associated with increased BRCA1 expression, enhanced DNA repair and ...

Mitochondrial calcium channels

FEBS Letters, 2010
Mitochondrial Ca2+handling plays an important role in energy production and various cellular signaling processes. Mitochondrial Ca2+uptake is regulated by the mitochondrial Ca2+uniporter (MCU), at least one non‐MCU Ca2+channel and possibly a mitochondrial ryanodine receptor. Two distinct mechanisms mediate Ca2+outward transport, the Na+‐dependent (mNCX)

A new flow chip in combination with multiphoton microscopy as a protocol for longitudinal 3D imaging of tissue calcification under shear stress

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Miniaturized flow chip platform enabling continuous perfusion and longitudinal multiphoton 3D imaging of vascular smooth muscle cell constructs under physiological flow. Brightfield imaging guides region selection, while CellTracker Green and mRuby‐labeled fetuin‐A visualize cells and mineral deposition, respectively. Magnesium supplementation markedly

Malformin A1–mediated cytotoxicity in ovarian cancer cells occurs through pyroptosis and autophagy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study investigated the effects of the natural compound Malformin A1 (MA1) on the cytoskeleton that regulates cell proliferation and migration. Disruption of the cytoskeleton can impair these processes and promote cancer cell death. MA1 disrupted cytoskeletal organization, induced DNA damage, inflammation, activated autophagy, and pyroptosis ...

Ionomycin suppresses cancer cell growth by disrupting mitochondrial transcription

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, we identify a new function for the selective Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin, as an inhibitor of mitochondrial transcription. Both total and nascent RNA analyses revealed that ionomycin treatment reduces the transcription of mitochondrial genes.
