Acute caffeine treatment protects the developing retina from ischemia‐induced cell death

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Caffeine reduces cell death in the developing retina under ischemia (OGD). This effect does not involve BDNF upregulation or antioxidant pathways (NRF2/VEGF). Neuroprotection occurs mainly through adenosine A2A receptor antagonism, decreasing glutamate release and excitotoxicity, highlighting caffeine's potential as an acute neuroprotective agent in ...

Centaurin-α1 Is a Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase-dependent Activator of ERK1/2 Mitogen-activated Protein Kinases [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
Centaurin-alpha1 is known to be a phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate (PIP3)-binding protein that has two pleckstrin homology domains and a putative ADP ribosylation factor GTPase-activating protein domain. However, the physiological function of centaurin-alpha1 is still not understood.

A yeast model of 5‐oxoproline accumulation reveals a general toleration to 5‐oxoproline

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using a yeast model, we show that even high accumulation of 5‐oxoproline causes only mild cellular stress and does not trigger oxidative stress. Instead, cells adapt by activating efflux pumps and diverse protective pathways, suggesting that previously proposed harmful effects of 5‐oxoproline may arise from indirect metabolic imbalances rather than the

Aquaporin‐3 and aquaporin‐5 impact the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma spheroids

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the role of aquaporin‐3 (AQP3) and aquaporin‐5 (AQP5) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Both proteins are upregulated in PDAC and are associated with tumor progression and metastatic potential. Silencing AQP3 or AQP5 in PDAC spheroids results in decreased diameter, area, and overall growth, underscoring their key ...

Selective Activation of Mitogen-Activated Protein (MAP) Kinase Kinase 3 and p38α MAP Kinase Is Essential for Cyclic AMP-Dependent UCP1 Expression in Adipocytes

Molecular and Cellular Biology, 2005
The sympathetic nervous system regulates the activity and expression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) through the three β-adrenergic receptor subtypes and their ability to raise intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels.

Loss of AMBRA1 activates MAPK and angiogenesis signaling pathways in melanoma cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Loss of AMBRA1 in melanoma cells activates multiple oncogenic pathways associated with tumor progression. Transcriptomic and protein network analyses revealed that AMBRA1 depletion enhances MAPK/ERK signaling, angiogenesis, TGF‐β/EMT signaling, and Wnt/axon guidance pathways.

Parallel and Independent Regulation of Interleukin-3 mRNA Turnover by Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase and p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase [PDF]

Molecular and Cellular Biology, 2001
AU-rich elements (ARE) present in the 3' untranslated regions of many cytokines and immediate-early genes are responsible for targeting the transcripts for rapid decay. We present evidence from cotransfection experiments in NIH 3T3 cells that two signaling pathways, one involving phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K), and one involving the p38 mitogen ...

Perivascular Matrix Densification Dysregulates Angiogenesis and Activates Pro‐Inflammatory Endothelial Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Perivascular matrix densification promotes the emergence of aberrant endothelial tip cells (ATECs) that invade and persist within fibrotic microenvironments. Using in vivo lineage tracing and a human microvessel model, this study shows that fibrous matrix cues destabilize VE‐cadherin–mediated junctions to gate TGF‐β signaling, inducing a pro ...

Stress-activated protein kinase-3 interacts with the PDZ domain of alpha1-syntrophin. A mechanism for specific substrate recognition.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1999
Mechanisms for selective targeting to unique subcellular sites play an important role in determining the substrate specificities of protein kinases. Here we show that stress-activated protein kinase-3 (SAPK3, also called ERK6 and p38gamma), a member of ...

IL‐7R‐Enriched Extracellular Vesicles From the Thymus Drive Colitis via Promoting Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) pathogenesis remains unclear. This study reveals that thymus‐originated IL‐7R‐enriched extracellular vesicles exacerbate colitis by promoting neutrophil extracellular traps via a thymus‐gut axis, uncovering an inter‐organ communication mechanism in inflammatory bowel disease pathogenesis.
