Computational modelling of cardiac fibroblast signalling reveals a key role for Ca2+ in driving atrial fibrillation‐associated fibrosis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A pre‐existing fibroblast signalling model was enhanced by integrating atrial‐specific components and reactions linked to atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation (AF). The analysis highlights the central role of Ca2⁺ signalling in driving profibrotic responses to AF‐relevant stimuli, angiotensin‐II and transforming growth factor ...

A threshold level of NFATc1 activity facilitates thymocyte differentiation and opposes notch-driven leukaemia development

Nature Communications, 2016
NFATc1 orchestrates thymocyte development. Here the authors show that NFATc1 expression is regulated by distinct promoters during thymocyte differentiation, and by conditional deletion of individual promoters in mice they define their specific roles in ...

Stac2 genetic deletion alters mouse chromaffin cells’ CaV channel composition, increases membrane excitability and reduces vesicle exocytosis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Stac2 adaptor protein is expressed in neurons and endocrine cells. Using a global Stac2 knockout mouse model here we investigated the role of endogenous Stac2 in adrenal gland mouse chromaffin cell (MCC) excitability and catecholamine vesicle exocytosis.

Bioinformatics Identification of lncRNA‐Associated Molecular Signatures Potentially Related to Quercetin Response in Breast Cancer

Computational and Systems Oncology, Volume 6, Issue 1, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Breast cancer affects approximately one in every eight women globally, as reported by the World Health Organization. Among all female malignant tumors, breast cancer has the highest fatality rate, surpassed only by lung cancer. Advanced stages of this disease are almost always fatal, and despite the advancements in surgical techniques and ...

The Transcription Factor NFATc1 Supports the Rejection of Heterotopic Heart Allografts

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
The immune suppressants cyclosporin A (CsA) and tacrolimus (FK506) are used worldwide in transplantation medicine to suppress graft rejection. Both CsA and FK506 inhibit the phosphatase calcineurin (CN) whose activity controls the immune receptor ...

Meroterpenoids Produced by Fungi: Occurrence, Structural Diversity, and Biological Activity (An Update: February 2020 to December 2025)

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 11, November 2026.
This review firstly summarizes the update of meroterpenoids from February 2020 to December 2025 by applying a new classification method based on twelve key non‐terpene precursors. ABSTRACT Meroterpenoids are a class of hybrid natural products, biosynthesized from terpenoid fragments and non‐terpenoid precursors, exhibiting a wide range of biological ...

c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase inhibits targeting of the protein phosphatase calcineurin to NFATc1 [PDF]

, 2009
The protein phosphatase calcineurin is a critical mediator of calcium signals during T-cell activation. One substrate of calcineurin is the transcription factor NFATc1, which is retained in the cytoplasm of quiescent cells. NFATc1 activation requires the

Synergistic roles of NFATc1 and c-Jun in immunomodulation

Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports
The immune system relies on precise regulatory mechanisms, with transcription factors being central to modulating immune responses. NFATc1 and c-Jun are key transcription factors that influence both adaptive and innate immunity. This review provides a comprehensive examination of the individual and synergistic roles of NFATc1 and c-Jun in immune ...

CD137 Regulates NFATc1 Expression in Mouse VSMCs through TRAF6/NF-κB p65 Signaling Pathway

Mediators of Inflammation, 2015
Our previous study proved that CD137-CD137L interaction can regulate the expression of NFATc1. Here, we investigated whether CD137 signaling regulates the expression of NFATc1 in mice VSMCs through TRAF6/NF-κB p65 pathway.
