Liver necroptosis of chicks is induced by selenium (Se)/vitamin E (VE) deficiencies and may be associated with oxidative cell damage. To reveal the underlying mechanisms of liver necrosis, a pool of the corn–soy basal diet (10 μg Se/kg; no VE added), a ...

Blocking STAT3 signaling augments MEK/ERK inhibitor efficacy in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is one of the world’s leading causes of death, and its primary clinical therapy relies on surgical resection, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and chemoradiotherapy.

Post-infarction remodeling is independent of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 3 (MKK3) [PDF]
Our aim was to examine the role of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 3 (MKK3) in the development of left ventricular (LV) remodeling following myocardial infarction (MI).MKK3-null mice were subjected to permanent coronary artery ligation. Twenty-eight days after MI, haemodynamics in male mkk3+/+(WT) and mkk3-/-(KO) littermates were assessed using

Phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)‐trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3) is required for protein kinase B (AKT) activation. The level of PI(3,4,5)P3 is constantly regulated through balanced synthesis by phosphoinositide 3‐kinase (PI3K) and degradation by ...

Chemotherapy-induced nephrotoxicity was improved by crocin in mouse model
Cisplatin (CDDP) has been widely used in cancer therapy, but it has been linked to side effects such as nephrotoxicity. Crocin is a carotenoid found in crocus and gardenia flowers that has been shown to have anti-oxidant properties, inhibit tumor growth,

Role of RAS signaling in ovarian cancer [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]
The RAS family of proteins is among the most frequently mutated genes in human malignancies. In ovarian cancer (OC), the most lethal gynecological malignancy, RAS, especially KRAS mutational status at codons 12, 13, and 61, ranges from 6–65% spanning ...

Mechanism of Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase Phosphatase-3 Activation by ERK2 [PDF]
The mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase 3 (MKP3)-catalyzed hydrolysis of aryl phosphates in the absence and presence of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2 (ERK2) was investigated in order to provide insights into the molecular basis of the ERK2-induced MKP3 activation.
