MD and EPR studies of the structure and dynamics of the MTSL spin-labelled activation loop of the Aurora-A kinase [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
The understanding of kinase structure is mostly based on protein crystallography, which is limited by the requirement to trap molecules within a crystal lattice. Therefore, characterisations of the conformational dynamics of the activation loop in solution are important to enhance the understanding of molecular processes related to diseases and to ...

Age-dependent motor dysfunction due to neuron-specific disruption of stress-activated protein kinase MKK7. [PDF]

, 2017
c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) is a member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase family and controls various physiological processes including apoptosis. A specific upstream activator of JNKs is the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 7 (MKK7).

Verteporfin‐Mediated In Situ Nanovaccine Based on Local Conventional‐Dose Hypofractionated Radiotherapy Enhances Antitumor and Immunomodulatory Effect

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Here gelatinase‐responsive methoxypolyethyleneglycol–PVGLIG–polycaprolactone (mPEG–PVGLIG–PCL) nanoparticles’ loading verteporfin (N@VP) is developed, enhancing radiotherapy via X‐ray‐triggered singlet oxygen generation. Combined with 2 Gy (gray, a radiation dose unit) irradiation, N@VP achieves antitumor efficacy comparable to 8 Gy, and also promotes ...

Redox signaling, Nox5 and vascular remodeling in hypertension [PDF]

, 2015
Purpose of review: Extensive data indicate a role for reactive oxygen species (ROS) and redox signaling in vascular damage in hypertension. However, molecular mechanisms underlying these processes remain unclear, but oxidative post-translational ...

Mitogen-activated Protein Kinases in Inflammation

Journal of Bacteriology and Virology, 2012
Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) play critical regulatory roles in the production of the pro-inflammatory cytokines and downstream signaling events which lead to inflammation. Inflammation is a primarily localized and protective response of host against microbial infection.

LincNEAT1 Encoded‐NEAT1‐31 Promotes Phagocytosis by Directly Activating the Aurora‐A–PI3K–AKT Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
LincNEAT1 Encoded‐NEAT1‐31 micropeptide directly binds with Aurora‐A and enhanced AKT pathways to pormotes phagocytosis against multi cancer cells. Abstract Macrophages play vital roles in innate and adaptive immunity, and their essential functions are mediated by phagocytosis and antigen presentation.

Short-term low-protein diet during pregnancy alters islet area and protein content of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway in rats

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2015
The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways mediate β cell growth, proliferation, survival and death. We investigated whether protein restriction during pregnancy alters islet morphometry or the expression and ...

Estimation of kinetic rates of MAP kinase activation from experimental data [PDF]

, 2009
Mathematical model is an important tool in systems biology to study the dynamics of biological systems inside the cell. One of the significant challenges in systems biology is the lack of kinetic rates that should be measured in experiments or estimated ...

UGDH Lactylation Aggravates Osteoarthritis by Suppressing Glycosaminoglycan Synthesis and Orchestrating Nucleocytoplasmic Transport to Activate MAPK Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lactylation of UDP‐glucose dehydrogenase (UGDH) represses its enzymatic activity and causes glycosaminoglycans loss. In addition, UGDH lactylation facilitates its interaction with chromosome region maintenance 1 (CRM1) and promotes the nucleocytoplasmic transport.

Understanding signaling cascades in melanoma [PDF]

, 2008
Understanding regulatory pathways involved in melanoma development and progression has advanced significantly in recent years. It is now appreciated that melanoma is the result of complex changes in multiple signaling pathways that affect growth control,
