Centrosomes drive mitotic spindle formation and chromosome segregation. Here, the authors show that centrosome stability is regulated by selective autophagic degradation of centriolar satellite components in a process they term doryphagy, connecting ...

MiR-146a: a key microRNA involved in regulating mast cell survival and T lymphocyte differentiation [PDF]
Mast cells are long-lived, tissue-resident cells of the innate immune system. Since the identification of mechanisms that regulate mast cell proliferation, survival and overall homeostasis in the tissues may have important implications for the treatment ...

The Role of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Ataxia‐Telangiectasia
ABSTRACT Background Ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T) is a DNA repair disorder characterized by neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an established therapy in related disorders such as Fanconi anemia (FA) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), but its role in A‐T is unclear.

Active p21-Activated Kinase 1 Rescues MCF10A Breast Epithelial Cells from Undergoing Anoikis
The protein kinase, PAKi, is overexpressed in human breast cancer and may contribute to malignancy through induction of proliferation and invasiveness. In this study, we examined the role of PAKi in the survival of detached MCF10A breast epithelial cells

CD160Ig fusion protein targets a novel costimulatory pathway and prolongs allograft survival. [PDF]
CD160 is a cell surface molecule expressed by most NK cells and approximately 50% of CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Engagement of CD160 by MHC class-I directly triggers a costimulatory signal to TCR-induced proliferation, cytokine production and ...

Redox Regulation of Cell Survival [PDF]
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) play important roles in regulation of cell survival. In general, moderate levels of ROS/RNS may function as signals to promote cell proliferation and survival, whereas severe increase of ROS/RNS can induce cell death.

ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated. Procedure We

SNP Analysis of the SOD1 gene involved in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)
ALS is a rare neurodegenerative disease causing the loss of motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord. Mutations in over forty genes, particularly the Superoxide Dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene, are linked to ALS.

Rethink of EGFR in Cancer With Its Kinase Independent Function on Board
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is one of most potent oncogenes that are commonly altered in cancers. As a receptor tyrosine kinase, EGFR's kinase activity has been serving as the primary target for developing cancer therapeutics, namely the ...

Low Concentrations of Oxidized Phospholipids Increase Stress Tolerance of Endothelial Cells
Oxidized phospholipids (OxPLs) are generated by enzymatic or autooxidation of esterified polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) residues. OxPLs are present in circulation and atherosclerotic plaques where they are thought to induce predominantly ...
