Ouabain is of cardiotonic steroids (CTS) family that is plant-derived compounds and is known for many years as therapeutic and cytotoxic agents. They are specific inhibitors of Na,K-ATPase, the enzyme, which pumps Na+ and K+ across plasma membrane of ...

ABSTRACT Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most common type worldwide, representing a public health problem. Among the genes related to this tumorigenesis, the family of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), essential regulators of the extracellular matrix (ECM), stand out for their involvement in the development and progression of GC.

ABSTRACT The coevolutionary radiation of 27 species of Tetraopes longhorned beetles and their Asclepias milkweed hosts represents a classic example of adaptive evolution driven by plant chemical defences and herbivore counteradaptations. Investigations to date, however, have focused on a single species, Tetraopes tetrophthalmus, which feeds on the ...

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.

Molecular mechanism of cofilin dephosphorylation by ouabain
We previously reported that phosphorylated cofilin-triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) complex interacts with Na,K-ATPase and enhances the pump activity through the phosphorylation of cofilin via Rho-mediated signaling pathway.

Ouabain is secreted by the adrenal gland in awake dogs
Ouabain has been identified in the plasma and adrenal glands of several mammals, including humans. To investigate possible adrenal secretion of ouabain in vivo, at rest, and in response to acute blood volume changes, we prepared trained adult dogs (n ...

Multifacet Roles of Cellular Senescence in Cancer: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications
Cellular senescence shapes tumor progression through both antitumor and protumor mechanisms. Senescence triggered by telomere shortening restricts malignant transformation and limits tumor cell proliferation, while the senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP) secretion enhances antitumor immunity by activating cytotoxic T cells.
