Separate roles of PKA and EPAC in renal function unraveled by the optogenetic control of cAMP levels in vivo [PDF]

, 2013
Cyclic AMP (cAMP) is a ubiquitous second messenger that regulates a variety of essential processes in diverse cell types, functioning via cAMP-dependent effectors such as protein kinase A (PKA) and/or exchange proteins directly activated by cAMP (EPAC ...

Measuring error rates in genomic perturbation screens: gold standards for human functional genomics

Molecular Systems Biology, 2014
Technological advancement has opened the door to systematic genetics in mammalian cells. Genome‐scale loss‐of‐function screens can assay fitness defects induced by partial gene knockdown, using RNA interference, or complete gene knockout, using new ...

Pathologic gene network rewiring implicates PPP1R3A as a central regulator in pressure overload heart failure [PDF]

, 2019
Heart failure is a leading cause of mortality, yet our understanding of the genetic interactions underlying this disease remains incomplete. Here, we harvest 1352 healthy and failing human hearts directly from transplant center operating rooms, and ...

Autophagy gene haploinsufficiency drives chromosome instability, increases migration, and promotes early ovarian tumors. [PDF]

, 2020
Autophagy, particularly with BECN1, has paradoxically been highlighted as tumor promoting in Ras-driven cancers, but potentially tumor suppressing in breast and ovarian cancers.

Pvr expression regulators in equilibrium signal control and maintenance of Drosophila blood progenitors. [PDF]

, 2014
Blood progenitors within the lymph gland, a larval organ that supports hematopoiesis in Drosophila melanogaster, are maintained by integrating signals emanating from niche-like cells and those from differentiating blood cells.

Modulating gene expression as a strategy to investigate thyroid cancer biology [PDF]

Archives of Endocrinology and Metabolism
Modulating the expression of a coding or noncoding gene is a key tool in scientific research. This strategy has evolved methodologically due to advances in cloning approaches, modeling/algorithms in short hairpin RNA (shRNA) design for knockdown ...

The broad role of Nkx3.2 in the development of the zebrafish axial skeleton.

PLoS ONE, 2021
The transcription factor Nkx3.2 (Bapx1) is an important chondrocyte maturation inhibitor. Previous Nkx3.2 knockdown and overexpression studies in non-mammalian gnathostomes have focused on its role in primary jaw joint development, while the function of ...
