Characterization of Sirt2 using conditional RNAi in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Within the past eight years, RNA interference (RNAi) has emerged as a powerful experimental tool for gene function analysis in mice. Reversible control of shRNA mediated RNAi has been achieved by using a tetracycline (tet)-inducible promoter.

Defective axonal transport in motor neuron disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Several recent studies have highlighted the role of axonal transport in the pathogenesis of motor neuron diseases. Mutations in genes that control microtubule regulation and dynamics have been shown to cause motor neuron degeneration in mice and in a ...

Allosteric Modulation of Pathological Ataxin‐3 Aggregation: A Path to Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type‐3 Therapies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers a new allosteric site in the Josephin domain of ataxin‐3 targeted by the molecular tweezer CLR01, which modulates protein aggregation, improves synaptic function in neuronal cells, and delays motor dysfunction in animal models.

Pathological impact of hepatitis B virus surface proteins on the liver is associated with the host genetic background.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundWhile the immune pathogenesis caused by hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection has been studied extensively, little is known about direct pathogenic effects of HBV surface proteins.

PHR‐Mediated Pi Starvation Response Mobile Messenger RNAs Represent Noncoding Transcripts in Recipient Tissues

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mobile messenger RNAs (mRNAs) can travel long distances, serving as systemic signals that participate in plant growth and stress acclimation. This work determines that PHR proteins mediate the Pi starvation response (PSR)‐specific long‐distance transport of mRNAs and that these PSR‐specific mobile mRNAs represent noncoding transcripts in recipient ...

BACE1 in the retina: a sensitive biomarker for monitoring early pathological changes in Alzheimer′s disease

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2016
Because of a lack of sensitive biomarkers, the diagnosis of Alzheimer′s disease (AD) cannot be made prior to symptom manifestation. Therefore, it is crucial to identify novel biomarkers for the presymptomatic diagnosis of AD.

Osteocytes and mechanical loading: The Wnt connection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Bone adapts to the mechanical forces that it experiences. Orthodontic tooth movement harnesses the cell‐ and tissue‐level properties of mechanotransduction to achieve alignment and reorganization of the dentition.

A Patient‐Derived Organoid Biobank of Adamantinomatous Craniopharyngioma as a Platform for Drug Discovery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study successfully establishes adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (ACP) patient‐derived organoids (PDOs) that preserve the histopathological and genetic features of the original tumors. Through drug sensitivity assays and subsequent mechanistic analyses, the study demonstrates that Ceritinib exerts its inhibitory effects on ACP PDO growth by ...
