Engineering IL‐4 resistant proinflammatory human myeloid cells for cancer immunotherapy

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We developed a scalable workflow to generate proinflammatory human myeloid cells. CRISPR/Cas9‐edited CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells were expanded and differentiated with M‐CSF. Deletion of STAT6 or STAT6/NFKB1 enhanced macrophage proinflammatory gene expression and cytokine secretion in the presence of IL‐4 while maintaining antibody ...

Cellular Profile of Subfornical Organ Insulin Receptors in Mice

Biomolecules
Brain insulin receptor signaling is strongly implicated in cardiovascular and metabolic physiological regulation. In particular, we recently demonstrated that insulin receptors within the subfornical organ (SFO) play a tonic role in cardiovascular and ...

Evaluating the involvement of autolysosomes in the nuclear translocation of fluorescent proteins

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Endogenously expressed fluorescent proteins can be degraded by autophagy and transported to cell nuclei via the nuclear pore complex. But in some cell lines, for example, HeLa cells which are positive for immunoreactivity of a receptor ligand, such as UCN I, in cell nuclei, fusion of autolysosome with the nuclear envelope is involved in the nuclear ...

IGF-I, IGF-II and insulin stimulate different gene expression responses through binding to the IGF-I receptor.

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2013
Insulin and the insulin-like growth factors (IGF)-I and –II are closely related peptides important for regulation of metabolism, growth, differentiation and development. The IGFs exert their main effects through the IGF-I receptor.

How insulin engages its primary binding site on the insulin receptor

Nature, 2013
Insulin receptor signalling has a central role in mammalian biology, regulating cellular metabolism, growth, division, differentiation and survival. Insulin resistance contributes to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus and the onset of Alzheimer’

5-ht inhibition of rat insulin 2 promoter cre recombinase transgene and proopiomelanocortin neuron excitability in the mouse arcuate nucleus [PDF]

, 2009
A number of anti-obesity agents have been developed that enhance hypothalamic 5-HT transmission. Various studies have demonstrated that arcuate neurons, which express proopiomelanocortin peptides (POMC neurons), and neuropeptide Y with agouti-related ...

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

FEBS 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.

Structural Perspectives of Insulin Receptor Isoform-Selective Insulin Analogs

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2017
A significant drawback of the exogenous administration of insulin to diabetics is the non-physiological profile of insulin action resulting in the insufficient suppression of hepatic glucose production, which is the main contributing factor to diabetic ...

Investigation of the binding interactions between insulin and its receptor [PDF]

, 2015
This project investigated the interactions between insulin and its receptor. A combination of computational and experimental investigations resulted in the identification of four residues in non-canonical sites that, when mutated, had detrimental effects

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

FEBS 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.
