ERKs Weigh in on Ribosome Mass [PDF]

Molecular Cell, 2001
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Stefanovsky et al. demonstrate that the activation of the ERK1/2 MAP kinases by growth factors leads to induction of ribosomal gene transcription, through a mechanism dependent on phosphorylation of the upstream binding factor (UBF). This provides a connection between growth factor signaling and increased translation.

A novel quinazolinone insulin receptor inhibitor and its synergy with an EGFR inhibitor in glucose‐driven glioblastoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

Mass Driver Design Traveling Earth to the Moon

IEEE Access, 2019
In this article, the flight of a mass driver was designed for launch from the Earth with Electro Magnetic Space Launching System (EMSLS). Then the orbit exit from the Earth at 185 km and orbit entry the Moon at 100kmwere examined with respect to change ...

PAK1 activation drives divergent resistance mechanisms to aromatase inhibition and tamoxifen in a luminal: A breast cancer model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Breast cancer remains a major cause of cancer death in women, frequently developing endocrine therapy resistance. This study demonstrates that upregulated p21‐activated kinase 1 (PAK1) activity drives resistance to tamoxifen and long‐term estrogen deprivation in ER+ breast cancer models.

A sensitive ERK fluorescent probe reveals the significance of minimal EGF-induced transcription

Cell Structure and Function
Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) regulates multiple cellular functions through distinct activation patterns. Genetically encoded fluorescent probes are instrumental in dissecting the ERK activity dynamics in living cells.

Exercise and Nano-curcumin supplementation mediates cross-talk between MAPK/ERK signaling in the regulation of inflammatory disease [PDF]

Journal of Exercise & Organ Cross Talk
Impaired cell internal settings and excessive proliferation causes the occurrence of diverse ranges of syndrom and diseases. The pathological stress underlying these conditions triggers persistent flux through multiple intracellular signaling pathways ...

Epigenetic silencing of the liver‐specific lncRNA LUNAR promotes liver cancer progression via NOTCH activation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...

Targeting transcription factors associated with hemoglobinopathies: Lessons from successful interventions and implications for cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the transcription factors, repressive chromatin‐modifying complexes, and epigenetic mechanisms that control fetal hemoglobin repression. Notably, many regulators of γ‐globin silencing also function in transcriptional and epigenetic networks that drive cancer, highlighting opportunities to translate advances in hemoglobinopathy ...

ErbB4 promotes M2 activation of macrophages in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Open Life Sciences, 2023
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common and fatal diffuse fibrotic lung disease accompanied by macrophage M2 activation. ErbB4 is involved in and affects the process of inflammation.
