Stronger inflammatory/cytotoxic T cell response in women identified by microarray analysis [PDF]

, 2008
Women develop chronic inflammatory autoimmune diseases like lupus more often than men. The mechanisms causing the increased susceptibility are incompletely understood, although estrogen is believed to contribute.

The RhoA guanine exchange factor ABR: a glucose‐sensitive mediator of actin reorganization in feto‐placental arterial endothelial cells altered by gestational diabetes mellitus

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of proposed relationship between hyperglycaemia, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), active BCR‐related (ABR), RhoA and actin organization of feto‐placental arterial endothelial cells (fpEC). Hyperglycaemia upregulates ABR, which in turn increases RhoA activation.

Hypoxia and the cytoskeleton

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic outlining the activation of hypoxia‐sensitive pathways, the influence of hypoxia and associated pathways on the cytoskeleton, and the impact of these on disease progression. Abstract A highly‐regulated and dynamic cytoskeleton is vital for functional cellular physiology and the maintenance of homeostasis.

Distinct Effects of Nonselective Rho‐Kinase Inhibitor Fasudil and Selective Rho‐Kinase 2 Inhibitor KD025 on Serotonin and Dopamine Release in the Nucleus Accumbens of Mice

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, Volume 46, Issue 2, June 2026.
Fasudil perfusion in the NAc increased basal extracellular serotonin but not dopamine, and suppressed depolarization‐evoked release of both. In contrast, KD025 showed minimal effects on basal levels and selectively suppressed evoked serotonin release. ABSTRACT Recent studies have indicated that the Rho GTPase family and Rho‐kinases are associated with ...

PACAP induces FSHβ gene expression via EPAC. [PDF]

, 2019
Gonadotropins, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), are heterodimers of a common α subunit and unique β subunits. Regulation of their levels, primarily by GnRH, is critical for reproductive function.

Wheat's war against stripe rust: Integrating host immunity, genomics and breeding for durable resistance

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), a foundation of global food security, faces persistent threats from stripe rust caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst). The pathogen thrives in cool and humid environments and regularly causes epidemics that lead to severe yield losses.

Rab21 recruits EEA1 and competes with Rab5 for Rabex-5 activation

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Rab5 is a key regulator of early endosomal traffic and fusion. It shares its localization and guanine nucleotide exchange factor Rabex-5 with the less characterized member of the Rab5 subfamily Rab21.
