Vascular endothelial growth factor‐C in activating vascular endothelial growth factor receptor‐3 and chemokine receptor‐4 in melanoma adhesion

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 26, Issue 23, Page 5743-5754, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Vascular endothelial growth factor‐C (VEGF‐C) binds to receptor vascular endothelial growth factor receptor‐3 (VEGFR‐3) expressed on lymphatic endothelial and melanoma cells. Binding of VEGF‐C to VEGFR‐3 enhances receptor phosphorylation that activates mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAP‐K) and phosphatidylinositol‐3‐kinase (PI3K).

Distinct Molecular Effects of Angiotensin II and Angiotensin III in Rat Astrocytes

International Journal of Hypertension, 2013
It is postulated that central effects of angiotensin (Ang) II may be indirect due to rapid conversion to Ang III by aminopeptidase A (APA). Previously, we showed that Ang II and Ang III induced mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases ERK1/2 and stress ...

Thrombin Protease-activated Receptor-1 Signals through Gq- and G13-initiated MAPK Cascades Regulating c-Jun Expression to Induce Cell Transformation [PDF]

, 2003
Although the ability of G protein-coupled receptors to stimulate normal and aberrant cell growth has been intensely investigated, the precise nature of the molecular mechanisms underlying their transforming potential are still not fully understood.

Nutraceuticals and COVID‐19: A mechanistic approach toward attenuating the disease complications

Journal of Food Biochemistry, Volume 46, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Nutraceuticals have emerged as potential compounds to attenuate the COVID‐19 complications. Precisely, these food additives strengthen the overall COVID treatment and enhance the immunity of a person. Such compounds have been used at a large scale, in almost every household due to their better affordability and easy access.

Anti-Metastatic and Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Matrix Metalloproteinase Inhibition by Ginsenosides

Biomedicines, 2021
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are proteolytic enzymes which cleave extracellular matrix (ECM) and other substrates. They are deeply involved in both cancer metastasis and human chronic inflammatory diseases such as osteoarthritis and Crohn’s disease ...

Billion-years old proteins show the importance of N-lobe orientation in Imatinib-kinase selectivity [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The molecular origins of proteins' functions are a combinatorial search problem in the proteins' sequence space, which requires enormous resources to solve. However, evolution has already solved this optimization problem for us, leaving behind suboptimal solutions along the way. Comparing suboptimal proteins along the evolutionary pathway, or ancestors,

Structural Mechanism for the Specific Assembly and Activation of the Extracellular Signal Regulated Kinase 5 (ERK5) Module [PDF]

, 2013
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation depends on a linear binding motif found in all MAPK kinases (MKK). In addition, the PB1 (Phox and Bem1) domain of MKK5 is required for extracellular signal regulated kinase 5 (ERK5) activation.

Molecular and functional profiling unravels targetable vulnerabilities in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We used whole exome and RNA‐sequencing to profile divergent genomic and transcriptomic landscapes of microsatellite stable (MSS) and microsatellite instable (MSI) colorectal cancer. Alterations were classified using a computational score for integrative cancer variant annotation and prioritization.
