Suppression of mitochondrial respiration through recruitment of p160 myb binding protein to PGC-1α : modulation by p38 MAPK [PDF]
The transcriptional coactivator PPAR gamma coactivator 1 α (PGC-1α) is a key regulator of metabolic processes such as mitochondrial biogenesis and respiration in muscle and gluconeogenesis in liver. Reduced levels of PGC-1α in humans have been associated

Molecular mechanism of inhibition of 8-gingerol on proliferation of breast cancer cells
Objective To investigate the effect of cell cycle on breast cancer cells by 8-gingerol. Methods The cell viability of breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 after treated by 8-gingerol at the doses of 0, 10, 20, 30 or 40 μmol/L for 24, 48 or 72 h was ...

The efficiency of endocrine therapy for tumors is limited by the development of hormone resistance and progression of tumor cells to hormone-independent phenotype. Among these tumors – breast cancers, for which hormone therapy is one of the most common and effective methods of treatment, but only in cases, when the tumors retain their hormonal ...

Akt2, a Novel Functional Link between p38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase and Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase Pathways in Myogenesis [PDF]
Activation of either the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase)/Akt or the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways accelerates myogenesis but only when the reciprocal pathway is functional. We therefore examined the hypothesis

Increased activation of p38 MAPK in COPD. [PDF]
Inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis, which are involved in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) pathogenesis, may activate the p38 subgroup of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs).

LRG-1 promotes pancreatic cancer growth and metastasis via modulation of the EGFR/p38 signaling
Background The abnormal expression of leucine-rich-alpha-2-glycoprotein 1 (LRG-1) is reported to be associated with multiple malignancies, but its role in the progression of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains to be determined.

Neuropeptide Y inhibits interleukin-1β-induced phagocytosis by microglial cells
Background Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is emerging as a modulator of communication between the brain and the immune system. However, in spite of increasing evidence that supports a role for NPY in the modulation of microglial cell responses to inflammatory ...

Peroxiredoxin 3 Inhibits Cardiac Fibrosis in Mice via NOX4-P38 Signalling [PDF]
Objective: Peroxiredoxin-3 (Prx-3) is widely acknowledged as an antioxidant that protects against mitochondrialreactive oxygen species. Nonetheless, its role in cardiac fibrosis has not been elucidated. We aim to explore the roleand mechanism of Prx-3 in

CHTM1 regulates cancer cell sensitivity to metabolic stress via p38-AIF1 pathway
Background Recently, we have reported the characterization of a novel protein named Coiled-coil Helix Tumor and Metabolism 1 (CHTM1). CHTM1 localizes to both cytosol and mitochondria.
