Tauroursodeoxycholic acid dampens oncogenic apoptosis induced by endoplasmic reticulum stress during hepatocarcinogen exposure [PDF]
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is characterized by the accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which activates the unfolded protein response (UPR).

Cloning of a Differentially Expressed IκB-related Protein [PDF]
We have cloned a cDNA corresponding to a novel gene from a human epithelial cell line by subtractive hybridization and polymerase chain reaction techniques. This gene is expressed at the message level and at the protein level in a lung alveolar type II-like epithelial cell line but not in lung fibroblasts. In adult human tissues, the mRNA for this gene

Development of Protacs to Target Cancer-promoting Proteins for Ubiquitination and Degradation [PDF]
The proteome contains hundreds of proteins that in theory could be excellent therapeutic targets for the treatment of human diseases. However, many of these proteins are from functional classes that have never been validated as viable candidates for the ...

Mutations in LRRK2 impair NF-κB pathway in iPSC-derived neurons [PDF]
Background: Mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) contribute to both familial and idiopathic forms of Parkinson's disease (PD). Neuroinflammation is a key event in neurodegeneration and aging, and there is mounting evidence of LRRK2 ...

A Marine Diterpenoid Modulates the Proteasome Activity in Murine Macrophages Stimulated with LPS
The proteasome is an intracellular complex that degrades damaged or unfolded proteins and participates in the regulation of several processes. The immunoproteasome is a specialized form that is expressed in response to proinflammatory signals and is ...

Role of glutathionylation in infection and inflammation [PDF]
Glutathionylation, that is, the formation of mixed disulfides between protein cysteines and glutathione (GSH) cysteines, is a reversible post-translational modification catalyzed by dierent cellular oxidoreductases, by which the redox state of the cell

Although it is well established that reactive oxygen intermediates mediate the NF-kappaB activation induced by most agents, how H2O2 activates this transcription factor is not well understood. We found that treatment of human myeloid KBM-5 cells with H2O2 activated NF-kappaB in a dose- and time-dependent manner much as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) did ...
