ABSTRACT Background Pro‐inflammatory cytokines, TNF and IL‐1B, are essential for testicular homeostasis. Diacerein, an anti‐inflammatory drug, inhibits these cytokines, impairing M2 macrophages and Leydig cells (LCs). However, its impact on Sertoli cells (SCs) and M1 (CD68) macrophages remains unknown.

Nonstructural protein 5A of hepatitis C virus inhibits the function of karyopherin beta 3
It has been suggested that nonstructural protein 5A (NS5A) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) plays a role in the incapacitation of interferon by inactivation of RNA-dependent protein kinase PKR.

Recognition of nuclear targeting signals by Karyopherin-β proteins [PDF]
The Karyopherin-β family of nuclear transport factors mediates the majority of nucleocytoplasmic transport. Although each of the 19 Karyopherin-βs transports unique sets of cargos, only three classes of nuclear localization and export signals, or NLSs and NESs, have been characterized. The short basic classical-NLS was first discovered in the 1980s and

Resolving conformational changes in FG nucleoporins due to multivalent Karyopherin binding [PDF]
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is a huge macromolecular assembly that selectively regulates the exchange of cargo between the nuclear and the cytoplasmic compartment in a cell.

Cloning and characterization of the tomato karyopherin α1 gene promoter [PDF]
The karyopherin α1 (LeKAPα 1) gene of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) encodes a receptor involved in nuclear import. To analyze the expression pattern of this gene, a genomic clone containing its upstream region was isolated and sequenced. To study the promoter functionality, a 2170 bp fragment (LM1), was fused to glucuronidase (GUS) and introduced ...

Structural basis for nuclear import of adeno-associated virus serotype 6 capsid protein
Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) are the most extensively researched viral vectors for gene therapy globally. The AAV viral protein 1 (VP1) N-terminus controls the capsid’s ability to translocate into the cell nucleus; however, the exact mechanism of this

Identifying a novel region in the Tembusu virus NS5 protein antagonizing type I interferon signaling
Numerous species in the genus Flavivirus have been identified to pose serious threats to public health. Most of them have developed evasion strategies to counteract antiviral activity triggered by type I interferon (IFN-I), making prevention and control ...
