The next frontier in lung development and regeneration research: harnessing iPSC models to illuminate notch signaling pathways [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
The respiratory system relies on a diverse repertoire of epithelial cell types to ensure efficient air conduction and gas exchange. This cellular heterogeneity arises through tightly coordinated intercellular signaling events that extend from embryonic ...

The impact of hormones on lung development and function: an overlooked aspect to consider from early childhood [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
The impact of hormones on the respiratory system constitutes a multifaceted and intricate facet of human biology. We propose a comprehensive review of recent advancements in understanding the interactions between hormones and pulmonary development and ...

Replication collisions induced by de-repressed S-phase transcription are connected with malignant transformation of adult stem cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Suppression of transcription in S-phase is crucial to prevent genome instability. Zhang et al demonstrate that increase of H4K20me1 due to loss of Kmt5b cause genome instability in muscle stem cells, resulting in stem cell senescence but rhabdomyosarcoma

Gli1 mediates lung cancer cell proliferation and sonic hedgehog-dependent mesenchymal cell activation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Non-Small-Cell-Lung-Cancer (NSCLC) represents approximately 85% of all lung cancers and remains poorly understood. While signaling pathways operative during organ development, including Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) and associated Gli transcription factors (Gli1 ...

Control of CRK-RAC1 activity by the miR-1/206/133 miRNA family is essential for neuromuscular junction function

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The miR-1/133/206 gene family codes for the most abundant microRNAs in striated muscles. Here, Klockner et al show that inactivation of all family members in skeletal muscle prevents formation of normal neuromuscular junctions due to increased expression

Development of the lung [PDF]

open access: yesCell and Tissue Research, 2017
To fulfill the task of gas exchange, the lung possesses a huge inner surface and a tree-like system of conducting airways ventilating the gas exchange area. During lung development, the conducting airways are formed first, followed by the formation and enlargement of the gas exchange area.

Inactivation of Sirt6 ameliorates muscular dystrophy in mdx mice by releasing suppression of utrophin expression

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Utrophin is a dystrophin-related protein stabilizing the sarcolemma in absence of dystrophin. Here the authors report that inactivation of the protein deacetylase SIRT6, involved in the deacetylation of the epigenetic mark H3K56ac in muscle cells ...

Hedgehog Signaling: Linking Embryonic Lung Development and Asthmatic Airway Remodeling

open access: yesCells, 2022
The development of the embryonic lung demands complex endodermal–mesodermal interactions, which are regulated by a variety of signaling proteins. Hedgehog (Hh) signaling is vital for lung development.

BPTF promotes tumor growth and predicts poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinomas. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BPTF, a subunit of NURF, is well known to be involved in the development of eukaryotic cell, but little is known about its roles in cancers, especially in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
