The role of Hedgehog acyltransferase in Sonic hedgehog signalling [PDF]
, 2012 Protein acyltransferases (PATs), a group of enzymes catalysing fatty acylation of a variety of proteins, play an important role in protein sorting and signalling in the cell. In the Hedgehog (Hh) signalling pathway the PAT Hedgehog acyltransferase (Hhat) is responsible for addition of a palmitic acid to the N-terminal cysteine of Hh proteins.

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Longitudinal skeletal growth takes place in the cartilaginous growth plates. While growth plates are found at either end of conventional long bones, they occur at a variety of locations in the mammalian skeleton. For example, the metacarpals and metatarsals (MT) in the hands and feet form only a single growth plate at one end, and ...

Overexpression of hedgehog signaling is associated with epidermal tumor formation in vitamin D receptor-null mice. [PDF]
, 2011 The vitamin D receptor (VDR) ligand, 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)(2)D(3)), reduces proliferation and enhances differentiation, and thus has been investigated for a role in preventing or treating cancer.

A head start: The relationship of placental factors to craniofacial and brain development
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract In recent years, the importance of placental function for fetal neurodevelopment has become increasingly studied. This field, known as neuroplacentology, has greatly expanded possible etiologies of neurodevelopmental disorders by exploring the influence of placental function on brain development.

Cancer Research, 2017 Many tumors display intracellular heterogeneity with subsets of cancer stem cells (CSC) that sustain tumor growth, recurrence, and therapy resistance. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) have been shown to support and regulate CSC function.

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The endocannabinoid system is a neuromodulatory system implicated in cellular processes during both development and regeneration. The Mexican axolotl, one of only a few vertebrates capable of central nervous system regeneration, was used to examine the role of the endocannabinoid system in the regeneration of the tail and spinal ...

TULP4, a novel E3 ligase gene, participates in neuronal migration as a candidate in schizophrenia
CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, EarlyView., 2023 Mutations identified from four SCZ pedigrees resulted in decreased TULP4 expression. Tulp4 knockdown caused delayed neuron migration in embryonic mice, and impaired cognition and prepulse inhibition in adult mice. These phenotypes may be related to TULP4 through its involvement in the formation of a novel E3 ubiquitin ligases.
