Med Research, EarlyView.White adipose tissue undergoes browning under endogenous and exogenous stimuli, primarily regulated by core molecules such as PRDM16 and UCP1. It exhibits a double‐edged sword effect in metabolic diseases and tumors: while mitigating metabolic disease impacts and suppressing early‐stage tumors through nutritional competition, it may accelerate cachexia

Frontiers in ImmunologyIntroductionSerum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) are increased in COVID-19 patients. IL-6 is an effective therapeutic target in inflammatory diseases and tocilizumab, a monoclonal antibody that blocks signaling via the IL-6 receptor (IL-6R), is used to ...

Targeting STAT3 in Cancer with Nucleotide Therapeutics. [PDF]
, 2019 Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) plays a critical role in promoting the proliferation and survival of tumor cells. As a ubiquitously-expressed transcription factor, STAT3 has commonly been considered an "undruggable" target for ...

The metalloproteinase ADAM17 promotes acute lung inflammatory responses during pancreatitis
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Background and Purpose Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a multifactorial upper gastrointestinal inflammatory disorder that in severe cases (~20% of all AP) is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, the latter coincident with multiorgan dysfunction, particularly acute lung injury (ALI).

The effect of exercise on plasma soluble IL-6 receptor concentration: a dichotomous response [PDF]
, 2010 The aim of this article is to review current literature on the response of soluble interleukin-6 receptor to exercise and identify a potential role for sIL-6R in skeletal muscle function.

Cytokine signalling via gp130 in gastric cancer
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2009 Cytokine signalling pathways that depend on gp130 are dysregulated in several epithelial cancers including gastric cancer. It has been established that blockade of SHP2 activation of MAPK signalling results in hyperactivation of STAT3 resulting in increased cell proliferation, angiogenesis, inflammation and inhibition of both immunocyte and epithelial ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend A pre‐existing fibroblast signalling model was enhanced by integrating atrial‐specific components and reactions linked to atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation (AF). The analysis highlights the central role of Ca2⁺ signalling in driving profibrotic responses to AF‐relevant stimuli, angiotensin‐II and transforming growth factor ...

Langat virus inhibits the gp130/JAK/STAT signaling by reducing the gp130 protein level
Journal of Medical VirologyAbstractThe tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) serocomplex includes several medically important flavivirus members endemic to Europe, Asia, and North America, which can induce severe neuroinvasive or viscerotropic diseases with unclear mechanisms of pathogenesis.
