Bufalin‐Induced Epithelial‐to‐Mesenchymal Transition in Kidney Epithelial Cells

Cell Biology International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The kidney plays a central role in fluid, electrolyte, and blood pressure regulation, processes tightly coupled to Na⁺/K⁺‐ATPase activity. Beyond its canonical transport function, Na⁺/K⁺‐ATPase also acts as a signaling receptor for cardiotonic steroids (CTSs) such as bufalin, which have been implicated in fibrosis and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal

Embryonic cerebrospinal fluid pressure in fetal mice in utero: External factors pressurize the intraventricular space

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Previous experiments inducing leakage of embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) suggest the necessity of intraventricular CSF pressure (PCSF) for brain morphogenesis. Nevertheless, how embryonic PCSF occurs is unclear, especially in utero. Results Using a Landis water manometer, we measured PCSF in fetal mice isolated from the amniotic

Exploring Autophagy Inducing Molecules: Targeting Diverse Pathways in Alzheimer's Disease Management

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), impose a significant burden on society due to their progressive nature and the associated healthcare costs. Autophagy, a vital cellular degradation process, has emerged as a promising therapeutic target in these disorders.

Expanding the Reach of Membrane Protein–Ligand Interaction Studies Through the Integration of Mass Spectrometry and Membrane Mimetics

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mass spectrometry (MS) offers robust, label‐free approaches for characterizing ligand–protein interactions through two main strategies: affinity‐based and stability‐based assays. However, their application to membrane proteins (MPs)—a major class of drug targets—has been limited by challenges such as structural complexity, low native ...

Chinese Clinical Practice Guidelines for Auditory Neuropathy (gCAN)

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Auditory neuropathy (AN) is an auditory disorder that affects the function of the auditory pathway. An increasing number of AN cases have been identified with the revelation of the underlying mechanisms, the advancements of diagnostic and detecting techniques.

Calcium Export from Neurons and Multi-Kinase Signaling Cascades Contribute to Ouabain Neuroprotection in Hyperhomocysteinemia

Biomolecules, 2020
Pathological homocysteine (HCY) accumulation in the human plasma, known as hyperhomocysteinemia, exacerbates neurodegenerative diseases because, in the brain, this amino acid acts as a persistent N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor agonist.

Zebrafish as a model for Catel–Manzke syndrome—identification and characterization of the zebrafish TGDS ortholog

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Zebrafish Tgds, when expressed as a recombinant protein, catalyzes the dehydration of UDP‐D‐glucose, the initial step in the formation of 6‐deoxyhexoses. Corresponding Tgds mutations found in Catel–Manzke syndrome patients lead to reduced enzymatic activity and stability.

Modulation of TNF‐α mRNA stability by human antigen R and miR181s in sepsis‐induced immunoparalysis

EMBO Molecular Medicine, 2014
Immunoparalysis is an important pathological mechanism in sepsis. However, an effective small molecule therapy is lacking. Here, we show that ouabain, a Na+,K+‐ATPase ligand, can reverse immunoparalysis in vitro, in vivo, and in clinical samples. Notably,

Super-resolution microscopy reveals that Na+/K+-ATPase signaling protects against glucose-induced apoptosis by deactivating Bad

Cell Death and Disease, 2021
Activation of the apoptotic pathway is a major cause of progressive loss of function in chronic diseases such as neurodegenerative and diabetic kidney diseases.

Body size of male Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) at introduction of a 5‐week LD12:12 winter signal influences their decision to mature early or smoltify

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sexual maturation of male Atlantic salmon post‐smolts (‘jacking’) is undesired in aquaculture and seems to occur due to the intensification in modern facilities. Maturation depends on internal and external factors (temperature, photoperiod, feed availability, energy levels, body size, genetic background) that act on the brain‐pituitary‐gonad ...
