Depletion of Branched-Chain Aminotransferase 2 (BCAT2) Enzyme Impairs Myoblast 3 Survival and Myotube Formation [PDF]
Much is known about the positive effects of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) in regulating muscle protein metabolism. Comparatively much less is known about the effects of these amino acids and their metabolites in regulating myotube formation.

Molecular and cellular consequences of mevalonate kinase deficiency
Mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder associated with recurrent autoinflammatory episodes. The disorder is caused by bi-allelic loss-of-function variants in the MVK gene, which encodes mevalonate kinase (MK), an early enzyme in the isoprenoid biosynthesis pathway. To identify molecular and cellular consequences

Recommendations for the management of autoinflammatory diseases.
Autoinflammatory diseases are characterised by fever and systemic inflammation, with potentially serious complications. Owing to the rarity of these diseases, evidence-based guidelines are lacking.

β-arrestin/connexin 43 complex anchors ERKs outside the nucleus: a pre-requisite for bisphosphonate anti-apoptotic effect mediated by CX43/ERK in osteocytes [PDF]
Bisphosphonates (BPs) anti-fracture ef cacy may be due in part to inhibition of osteocyte apoptosis. This effect requires opening of con- nexin (Cx) 43 hemichannels and phosphoryla- tion of the extracellular signal regulated kinases (ERKs).
