RNA‐related functions of BRCA2 in transcription, replication, and genome stability

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Beyond its role in homologous recombination, BRCA2 regulates R‐loop homeostasis, DNA–RNA hybrid resolution, RNA polymerase II dynamics, and transcriptional activation. Disruption of any of these functions can contribute to genome instability, inflammatory signaling, and tumorigenesis. BRCA2 is a central tumor suppressor protein best known for its roles

The Role of Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor in Interleukin-23-Dependent Restoration of Interleukin-22 Following Ethanol Exposure and Burn Injury [PDF]

Annals of Surgery, 2014
T-helper (Th)-17 lymphocytes play a crucial role in maintenance and regulation of gut immunity. Our laboratory has demonstrated that acute ethanol (EtOH) exposure before burn injury results in intestinal T cell suppression and enhanced bacterial translocation.To extend these studies, we examined the effects of EtOH exposure and burn injury on Th17 ...

Expression of interleukin-18 receptor in fibroblast-like synoviocytes [PDF]

, 2001
An excess of the proinflammatory substance IL-18 is present in joints of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and expression of IL-18 receptor (IL-18R) regulates IL-18 bioactivity in various cell types.

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Elevated Notch1 enhances interleukin-22 production by CD4+ T cells via aryl hydrocarbon receptor in patients with lung adenocarcinoma [PDF]

Bioscience Reports, 2018
Notch signaling induced interleukin (IL)-22 secretion by CD4+ T cells via retinoid-related orphan nuclear receptor γt (RORγt) or aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). Previous studies have demonstrated that Notch-AhR-IL-22 axis took part in the pathogenesis of chronic viral infection, however, its role in cancer has not been fully elucidated.

Polyene macrolide antifungal drugs trigger interleukin-1β secretion by activating the NLRP3 inflammasome. [PDF]

, 2011
The use of antimycotic drugs in fungal infections is based on the concept that they suppress fungal growth by a direct killing effect. However, amphotericin and nystatin have been reported to also trigger interleukin-1β (IL-1β) secretion in monocytes but

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

Interleukin-4 receptor alpha gene variants and allergic disease [PDF]

, 2000
The interleukin-4 (IL-4) signalling cascade has been identified as a pathway potentially important in the development of asthma. Genetic variants within this signalling pathway might contribute to the risk of developing asthma in a given individual.

Circulating microRNA signatures of cachexia and cancer in Canis familiaris as a comparative oncology model for human disease

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of cachexia and sex‐specific cancer in senior dogs. In 25 client‐owned dogs, four circulating miRNAs (miR‐15a, miR‐15b, miR‐16, miR‐140) were downregulated in cachexia, with miR‐16 the strongest individual biomarker (AUC = 0.899).

A common variant of the interleukin 6 receptor (IL-6r) gene increases IL-6r and IL-6 levels, without other inflammatory effects.

, 2007
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a key inflammatory cytokine, signalling to most tissues by binding to a soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6r), making a complex with gp130.
