MARCKS and Lung Disease [PDF]

American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology, 2019
Abstract MARCKS (myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate) is a prominent PKC substrate expressed in all eukaryotic cells. It is known to bind to and cross-link actin filaments, to serve as a bridge between Ca2+/calmodulin and PKC signaling, and to sequester the signaling molecule phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate in the ...

Lung transplantation for interstitial lung disease

Breathe
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are now the most common indication for lung transplant internationally. Given that many lung transplant candidates with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis are older, referral to a pulmonary rehabilitation programme is important to help mitigate the adverse outcomes associated with frailty.
