Anosmin-1 modulates fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 signaling in human gonadotropin-releasing hormone olfactory neuroblasts through a heparan sulfate-dependent mechanism [PDF]
, 2004 Defects of either anosmin-1 or fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) are known to underlie hereditary Kallmann's syndrome (KS), a human disorder of olfactory and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neuronal ontogeny.

CRISPR Enabled Precision Oncology: From Gene Editing to Tumor Microenvironment Remodeling
Med Research, EarlyView.CRISPR technology has progressed from a prokaryotic immune system to a diverse suite of editing platforms, including Cas nucleases, base and prime editors, and RNA‐targeting enzymes. These advances enable precise genomic and epigenomic interventions, high‐throughput functional screening, and immune engineering.

Parkinson's Disease Patient‐Specific Striatum Organoids Show Hallmarks of Increased Inflammation
Movement Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Background Dopaminergic neurons from the substantia nigra pars compacta project their axons into the dorsal striatum, forming the nigrostriatal pathway. In Parkinson's disease (PD), dopaminergic terminals degenerate in the striatum, leading to dopamine depletion, which in turn causes alterations in the basal ganglia circuits that are essential

Dopamine signaling negatively regulates striatal phosphorylation of Cdk5 at tyrosine 15 in mice.
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2013 Striatal functions depend on the activity balance between the dopamine and glutamate neurotransmissions. Glutamate inputs activate cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5), which inhibits postsynaptic dopamine signaling by phosphorylating DARPP-32 (dopamine- and

Cyclin-dependent kinase five mediates activation of lung xanthine oxidoreductase in response to hypoxia. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) is involved in oxidative metabolism of purines and is a source of reactive oxygen species (ROS). As such, XOR has been implicated in oxidant-mediated injury in multiple cardiopulmonary diseases.

Proteomic Changes in Cancer Cell Lines as a Result of Bacterial Infection
PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Bacterial infections have been implicated in shaping the tumor microenvironment (TME), but their effects on cancer cell proteomes remain unexplored. In this study, we analyzed proteomic changes in melanoma (A375) and ovarian cancer (OVCAR3) cell line models following infection with Staphylococcus aureus strain USA300 or Salmonella enterica ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

The phosphorylation of BAG3 by CDK5 and its roles in astrocytes [PDF]
, 2016 细胞周期素依赖性蛋白激酶5（Cyclin-DependentKinase5，CDK5)是细胞周期蛋白依赖性丝氨酸/苏氨酸蛋白激酶家族中的一个成员，在神经系统的发育中发挥了至关重要的作用。CDK5的调节亚基P35、P39是神经系统特异性表达的蛋白，因此赋予了CDK5在神经系统中特异的激酶活性，使CDK5在调控神经递质传递，神经元凋亡等方面发挥了重要作用。对于CDK5的研究一直集中在对其新底物的发现和鉴定上，至今为止有40余个CDK5的底物被鉴定出来。作为脯氨酸依赖性蛋白激酶，CDK5可以特异磷酸化包含有 ...

Cdk5: A New Player at Synapses [PDF]
Neurosignals, 2003 Cdk5 is a member of the cyclin-dependent kinase family. Unlike other conventional Cdks that are major regulators of eukaryotic cell cycle progression, Cdk5 displays diverse functions in neuronal as well as non-neuronal tissues. In particular, accumulating evidence points to the roles of this kinase in CNS development and other cellular processes.

Cdk5 inhibitory peptide (CIP) inhibits Cdk5/p25 activity induced by high glucose in pancreatic beta cells and recovers insulin secretion from p25 damage. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Cdk5/p25 hyperactivity has been demonstrated to lead to neuron apoptosis and degenerations. Chronic exposure to high glucose (HG) results in hyperactivity of Cdk5 and reduced insulin secretion.
