Cold temperature extends longevity and prevents disease-related protein aggregation through PA28γ-induced proteasomes [PDF]
Aging is a primary risk factor for neurodegenerative disorders that involve protein aggregation. Because lowering body temperature is one of the most effective mechanisms to extend longevity in both poikilotherms and homeotherms, a better understanding ...

Physiological and iTRAQ-based proteomic analyses reveal the function of exogenous γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in improving tea plant (Camellia sinensis L.) tolerance at cold temperature [PDF]
Internal γ-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA) interacting with stress response substances may be involved in the regulation of differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) associated with optimum temperature and cold stress in tea plants (Camellia sinensis (L.) O ...

Transient Receptor Potential Melastatin 8 (TRPM8)-Based Mechanisms Underlie Both the Cold Temperature-Induced Inflammatory Reactions and the Synergistic Effect of Cigarette Smoke in Human Bronchial Epithelial (16HBE) Cells [PDF]
Transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) is a major receptor of cold environment. Recently, we found that cigarette smoke extract (CSE) upregulated TRPM8 mRNA and protein expression in bronchial tissues that made them more sensitive to cold ...
