Effects of IGFBP4 deficiency on human preadipocyte proliferation and differentiation through the IGF1R/AKT pathway

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
IGFBP4 knockdown (KD) impairs preadipocyte proliferation and is associated with IGF1R protein downregulation and attenuated AKT phosphorylation. The mechanisms by which IGFBP4 KD influences the IGF1R/AKT signaling pathway involve newly synthesized proteins and lysosomal degradation pathways. Created in BioRender.

Comparison of cytokine responses to group B Streptococcus infection in a human maternal-fetal interface organ-on-a-chip system and ex vivo culture model of human gestational membranes

Infection and Immunity
Adverse pregnancy outcomes represent a global health burden. Bacterial infection and subsequent inflammation in gestational membranes lead to immunological and physiological changes that contribute to adverse pregnancy outcomes. Although animal models of

Effect of terahertz irradiation on DNA damage repair in living cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We investigated the effect of terahertz (THz) wave irradiation on DNA double‐strand break (DSB) repair in living cells. We found that THz irradiation enhanced DSB repair at specific frequencies, whereas heat treatment inhibited it, indicating that this effect is nonthermal and frequency‐specific.

Importin 7 mediates the nuclear import of HIV‐1 integrase via a specific interacting interface

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
HIV‐1 integrase enables viral DNA integration into the host genome. By binding to the core domain of the host protein Importin 7 via its C‐terminal domain, the integrase is transported across the nuclear membrane into the nucleus, where integration of the viral genome into host DNA takes place. This translocation is a critical step for subsequent viral

Ionomycin suppresses cancer cell growth by disrupting mitochondrial transcription

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, we identify a new function for the selective Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin, as an inhibitor of mitochondrial transcription. Both total and nascent RNA analyses revealed that ionomycin treatment reduces the transcription of mitochondrial genes.

Role of apoptosis, bcl-2 and bax protein expression in premature rupture of fetal membranes

, 2002
OBJECTIVE: To examine the degree of apoptosis in human fetal membranes associated with premature rupture Of membranes (PROM) as compared with normal pregnancies and to evaluate the expression of proapoptotic bax and antiapoptotic bcl-2 gene ...

Dose‐dependent hepatotoxicity of hydrogen peroxide in HepG2 cells and its modulation by CYP450 induction

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
NMR metabolomics revealed concentration‐dependent metabolic perturbations in HepG2 cells exposed to H2O2. Rifampicin pretreatment enhanced metabolic competence, attenuated toxin‐induced alterations and produced metabolite profiles more consistent with human liver physiology, supporting the use of CYP450‐induced HepG2 models for improved in vitro ...

Nuclear Translocation of S100A9 Triggers Senescence of Human Amnion Fibroblasts by De‐Repressing LINE1 Via Heterochromatin Erosion at Parturition

Advanced Science
Aging of the fetal membranes participates in labor onset. However, the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. Here, we identify that the classical secretory protein S100 calcium‐binding protein A9 (S100A9), upon de‐phosphorylation at Thr 113 ...
