Characterization of Bone Structure in Leptin Receptor-Deficient Zucker (fa/fa) Rats

Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2003
Abstract To investigate the role of leptin in bone formation, the skeleton of the obese female leptin receptor-deficient Zucker rat was examined using pQCT, μCT, and histomorphometry. A trend toward decreasing structural and bone formation parameters in these rats as they age suggest that leptin has a small positive effect on bone.

The Many Roles of FAS Receptor Signaling in the Immune System [PDF]

Immunity, 2009
FAS belongs to the subgroup of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNF-R) family that contains an intracellular "death domain" and triggers apoptosis. Its physiological ligand FASL is a member of the TNF cytokine family. Studies with mutant mice and cells from human patients have shown that FAS plays critical roles in the immune system, including the ...

Endocytic Control of Cell‐Autonomous and Non‐Cell‐Autonomous Functions of p53

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
NUMB Ex3‐containing isoforms localize to the plasma membrane, where they recruit p53 through SNX9 and direct it to multivesicular bodies and exosomes. Exported p53 is taken up by neighboring cells and activates nuclear programs, revealing an intercellular, exosome‐based pathway that might help establish a tumor‐suppressive microenvironment.

A Gpr120-selective agonist improves insulin resistance and chronic inflammation in obese mice. [PDF]

, 2014
It is well known that the ω-3 fatty acids (ω-3-FAs; also known as n-3 fatty acids) can exert potent anti-inflammatory effects. Commonly consumed as fish products, dietary supplements and pharmaceuticals, ω-3-FAs have a number of health benefits ascribed ...

A mutation in caspase-9 decreases the expression of BAFFR and ICOS in patients with immunodeficiency and lymphoproliferation [PDF]

, 2015
Lymphocyte apoptosis is mainly induced by either death receptor-dependent activation of caspase-8 or mitochondria-dependent activation of caspase-9. Mutations in caspase-8 lead to autoimmunity/lymphoproliferation and immunodeficiency. This work describes

Normal levels of serum corticosterone and hepatic glucocorticoid receptors in obese (fa/fa) rats

Bioscience Reports, 1987
In an attempt to understand the hyper-responsiveness to glucocorticoids that is characteristic of genetically obese fa/fa rats, we have measured the levels of free corticosterone in serum from lean and obese rats as well as the number of “cytosolic” and “nuclear” binding sites in livers of these rats. Both the lean and obese rats had similar amounts of

Endogenous “Time Bomb” – Mislocalized Phospholipase A2 as a Critical Mediator of Ultra‐Rapid Mortality in Sepsis and Acute Lung Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Phospholipase A2 (PLA2), a dormant enzyme, becomes lethal when activated—collapsing lungs in minutes. Our dual therapy (DOPS + varespladib) boosts survival from 0% to >90% in sepsis/ALI. A breakthrough for acute lung injury treatment. ABSTRACT This study reveals that phospholipase A2 (PLA2), normally stable and nontoxic, can be activated specifically ...

Neuroprotection of photoreceptors by combined inhibition of both Fas and autophagy pathways in P23H mice

Cell Death and Disease
The P23H variant of rhodopsin (RHO) is a common cause of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (adRP). Our previous data have shown that both the Fas (CD95) death receptor and hyperactivation of autophagy contribute to photoreceptor (PR) death in a ...

In Vivo Localization of Fas-Associated Death Domain Protein in the Nucleus and Cytoplasm of Normal Thyroid and Liver Cells [PDF]

, 2009
FADD (Fas-associated death domain) is the main death receptor adaptor molecule that transmits apoptotic signal. Recently, FADD protein was shown to be expressed both in the cytoplasm and nucleus of in vitro cell lines. In contrast to the cytoplasmic FADD,
