Circadian Rhythm: Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2025.
This review offers a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms by which circadian rhythms modulate tissue homeostasis, alongside the associations between circadian disturbances and circadian rhythm‐related diseases. Furthermore, we offer insights into circadian rhythm‐regulating therapies, which may contribute to the development of novel strategies for ...

The evolution of the natural killer complex; a comparison between mammals using new high-quality genome assemblies and targeted annotation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Natural killer (NK) cells are a diverse population of lymphocytes with a range of biological roles including essential immune functions. NK cell diversity is in part created by the differential expression of cell surface receptors which modulate ...

Advantages and Possibility of Transcription Factors FOXOs in HCC

open access: yesCell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 43, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT The forkhead frame O protein (forkhead box class O proteins, FOXOs) is a highly conserved family of transcription factors, consisting of four members: FOXO 1, FOXO 3, FOXO 4, and FOXO 6. The FOXOs protein family is a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor involved in the regulation of cell cycle, cell proliferation, apoptosis, autophagy ...

GABARAPL1 acts as a potential marker and promotes tumor proliferation and metastasis in triple negative breast cancer

open access: yesOncotarget, 2017
GABAA-receptor-associated protein like-1 (GABARAPL1) is involved in a variety of cancers. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression, prognostic roles and functions of GABARAPL1 in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) showed that GABARAPL1 was up regulated in both TNBC cell lines and clinical TNBC ...

Regulation of Autophagy in Chick Myotubes: Effects of Insulin, Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I, and Amino Acids

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2018
Autophagy, an intracellular bulk protein degradation system in skeletal muscle, is increased under catabolic conditions resulting in muscle atrophy. This study aimed to investigate the effects of insulin, insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I, and amino ...

Induction of autophagy is a key component of all-trans-retinoic acid-induced differentiation in leukemia cells and a potential target for pharmacological modulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is characterized by the accumulation of immature blood cell precursors in the bone marrow. Pharmacologically overcoming the differentiation block in this condition is an attractive therapeutic avenue, which has achieved ...

The mammalian ULK1 complex and autophagy initiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Autophagy is a vital lysosomal degradation pathway that serves as a quality control mechanism. It rids the cell of damaged, toxic or excess cellular components, which if left to persist could be detrimental to the cell.

Calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase kinase 2 regulates hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell regeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) are predominantly quiescent in adults, but proliferate in response to bone marrow (BM) injury. Here, we show that deletion of Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase kinase 2 (CaMKK2) promotes HSPC ...

MicroRNA-143 enhances chemosensitivity of Quercetin through autophagy inhibition via target GABARAPL1 in gastric cancer cells

open access: yesBiomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2015
MicroRNAs have emerged as fundamental regulators in gene expression through silencing gene expression at the post-transcriptional and translational levels. In this study, miR-143 expression and biological functions in AGS/MNK28 cell lines was investigated.
