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

open access: yesFEBS 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.

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Genetics of metabolic resistance

Mathematical Biosciences, 2016
Herbicide resistance has become a major issue for many weeds. Metabolic resistance refers to the biochemical processes within organisms that degrade herbicides to less toxic compounds, resulting in a shift of the dose response curve. This type of resistance involves polygenic inheritance.

Genetics of insulin resistance

Current Diabetes Reports, 2002
Insulin resistance, defined as the decreased ability of insulin to perform its biological functions, is likely to represent the primary physiologic defect underlying the insulin resistance syndrome (IRS), which includes insulin resistance/hyperinsulinemia, glucose intolerance and/or type 2 diabetes mellitus, visceral obesity, hypertension, and ...

Genetic aspects of multidrug resistance

Medical Oncology and Tumor Pharmacotherapy, 1992
Gene amplification is responsible both for dihydrofolate reductase induced methotrexate resistance, and for the P-glycoprotein encoding multigene family induced multidrug resistance. The 6 pairs of hydrophobic regions of the P-glycoprotein fold up in a snake-like structure through the lipidic layers of the cell membrane. Other detoxification mechanisms

Genetic resistance to flaviviruses

2003
Resistance to flavivirus-induced disease in mice was first discovered in the 1920s and was subsequently shown to be controlled by the resistant allele of a single dominant autosomal gene. While the majority of current laboratory mouse stains have a homozygous-susceptible phenotype, the resistant allele has been found to segregate in wild mouse ...

Aspirin Resistance and Genetic Polymorphisms

Journal of Thrombosis and Thrombolysis, 2002
Differences in genetic makeup or polymorphisms can affect individual drug response. Detecting genetic variation may help predict how a patient will respond to a drug and could be used as a tool to select optimal therapy, tailor dosage regimens, and improve clinical outcomes. The data are replete relative to the therapeutic efficacy of aspirin (ASA) for

The genetic architecture of resistance

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2000
Plant resistance genes (R genes), especially the nucleotide binding site leucine-rich repeat (NBS-LRR) family of sequences, have been extensively studied in terms of structural organization, sequence evolution and genome distribution. These studies indicate that NBS-LRR sequences can be split into two related groups that have distinct amino-acid motif ...

Genetics of drug resistance

1994
Drug resistance is an ever present, dark shadow of cancer chemotherapy. Resistance developing as a consequence of treatment with cancer chemotherapeutic agents was a phenomenon recognized at the outset. In the days when the genome was generally considered to be static or fixed, tumor-cell drug resistance occurring in the patient, in animal models, and ...

The genetics of ACTH resistance syndromes

Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2006
Inherited adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) resistance diseases are rare and include triple A syndrome and familial glucocorticoid deficiency (FGD). These conditions show genetic heterogeneity, i.e., the identical clinical phenotype may result from defects in more than one gene.
