Expression of plasma prekallikrein mRNA in human nonhepatic tissues and cell lineages suggests special local functions of the enzyme [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
At present it is generally accepted that plasma prekallikrein (PPK) is synthesized in the liver and secreted into the bloodstream. Surprisingly, it has recently been shown that PPK mRNA is present also in RNA from the kidney, adrenal gland and placenta ...

Optimization of mRNA untranslated regions for improved expression of therapeutic mRNA [PDF]

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2018
mRNA based therapies hold great promise for the treatment of genetic diseases. However, this therapeutic approach suffers from multiple challenges including the short half-life of exogenously administered mRNA and subsequent protein production.

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Quantitative Expression of C-Type Lectin Receptors in Humans and Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
C-type lectin receptors, their adaptor molecules and S-type lectins (galectins) are involved in the recognition of glycosylated self-antigens and pathogens.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Effect of a Cultures of Aspergillus oryzae on Inflammatory Response and mRNA Expression in Intestinal Immune-Related Mediators of Male Broiler Chicks

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2012
Effect of Aspergillus oryzae (CAO) culture on systemic inflammatory response and mRNA expression of immune-related mediators in intestine was studied in male broiler chicks.

Characterization of serotonin transporter expression in human T lymphocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Serotonin transporter (SERT) expression has been demonstrated in human lymphocytes, including B lymphocytes, NK cells and other immune cells. However, discussion remains on whether human T lymphocytes express SERT. Given the potentially important role of

Kinetochore inactivation by expression of a repressive mRNA. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Differentiation programs such as meiosis depend on extensive gene regulation to mediate cellular morphogenesis. Meiosis requires transient removal of the outer kinetochore, the complex that connects microtubules to chromosomes.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

ERN1 knockdown modifies the impact of glucose and glutamine deprivations on the expression of EDN1 and its receptors in glioma cells

open access: yesEndocrine Regulations, 2021
Objective. The aim of the present investigation was to study the impact of glucose and gluta-mine deprivations on the expression of genes encoding EDN1 (endothelin-1), its cognate receptors (EDNRA and EDNRB), and ECE1 (endothelin converting enzyme 1) in ...
