Synopsis: Special Issue on “Disruption of signaling homeostasis induced crosstalk in the carcinogenesis paradigm Epistemology of the origin of cancer”

open access: yes4 open, 2019
It is increasingly evident that carcinogenesis, in the vast majority of cancers, cannot be explained simply through an accumulation of somatic mutations, or epigenetics, the stem cell theory, or the Warburg effect.

Possible involvement of keratinocyte‐derived microvesicle particles in human photosensitivity disorders

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
In this model, ROS generated by UVB result in PAFR agonists acting upon the PAFR resulting in MVP generation release via the enzyme aSMase. In photosensitivity, there are increased ROS, resulting in augmented PAF agonists and increased MVP release. This process can be blocked by aSMase inhibitors.

Effects of Jack Bean urease on Insect Blood [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Research Distinction in BiologyJackbean (Canavalia ensiformis) ureases are entomotoxic to hemipteran insects, an effect partially due to the release of internal peptides by insect's cathepsin- like digestive enzymes.

Antibiotic‐mediated immune modulation in periodontitis

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the supporting structures of the teeth. Although initiated by dysbiotic microbial communities, its progression is largely driven by the host's uncontrolled inflammatory response. While antibiotics have conventionally been employed in periodontitis therapy for their antimicrobial ...

Coupling of COX-1 to mPGES1 for prostaglandin E2 biosynthesis in the murine mammary gland

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
The mammary gland, like most tissues, produces measurable amounts of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), a metabolite of arachidonic acid produced by sequential actions of two cyclooxygenases (COX-1 and COX-2) and three terminal PGE synthases: microsomal ...

Excessive hypercholesterolaemia during pregnancy as a risk factor for endothelial dysfunction in pre‐eclampsia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Excessive hypercholesterolaemia during pregnancy impairs maternal endothelial function, which, in turn, drives the development of pre‐eclampsia and may also contribute to the increased risk of later‐life cardiovascular disease in women.

Pulmonary epithelial cancer cells and their exosomes metabolize myeloid cell-derived leukotriene C4 to leukotriene D4

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2016
Leukotrienes (LTs) play major roles in lung immune responses, and LTD4 is the most potent agonist for cysteinyl LT1, leading to bronchoconstriction and tissue remodeling. Here, we studied LT crosstalk between myeloid cells and pulmonary epithelial cells.

Mitochondrial control of ciliary gene expression and structure in striatal neurons

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Neurons drive animal behaviour by receiving and transmitting information and require energy, primarily supplied by mitochondria, to function. Additionally, neurons need to sense environmental changes to adapt, a function that is locally played by the primary cilia.
