PIN1 gene variants in Alzheimer's disease
Background Peptidyl-prolyl isomerase, NIMA-interacting 1 (PIN1) plays a significant role in the brain and is implicated in numerous cellular processes related to Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative conditions.

Blood-testis barrier integrity depends on Pin1 expression in Sertoli cells
The conformation and function of a subset of serine and threonine-phosphorylated proteins are regulated by the prolyl isomerase Pin1 through isomerization of phosphorylated Ser/Thr-Pro bonds. Pin1 is intensely expressed in Sertoli cells, but its function

MEF2 (myocyte enhancer factor 2) transcription factors (MEF2A-D) are highly expressed in skeletal muscle cells, they bind to a conserved AT rich DNA sequence through their N-ter MADS and MEF2 domains and activate transcription via their C-ter ...

Pin1 Deficiency Causes Endothelial Dysfunction and Hypertension
Pin1 is a peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerase that only binds to and isomerizes phosphorylated serine/threonine-proline motifs, inducing conformational changes that alter target protein function and phosphorylation ...

PIN1, a perspective on genetic biomarker for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)
Objective: A novel genetic and molecular basis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was explored. Study design: A 38-year-old male, who has no bad living and dietary habits, was diagnosed as NAFLD.

PIN1 expression contributes to hepatic carcinogenesis
The phospho-Ser/Thr-Pro specific prolyl-isomerase PIN1 is over-expressed in more than 50% of hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). To investigate its potential oncogenicity, we over-expressed PIN1 in a non-transformed human liver cell line MIHA.

Pin1 promotes GR transactivation by enhancing recruitment to target genes [PDF]
The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is a ligand activated transcription factor, serving to regulate both energy metabolism and immune functions. Factors that influence cellular sensitivity to glucocorticoids (GC) are therefore of great interest.

Overexpression of PIN1 in EBV-associated NPC.
(A) IHC staining was used to illustrate the overexpression of PIN1 in representative NPC primary tumors (NPC1-NPC4). All of the cases were EBV-positive undifferentiated carcinomas. NPC1, NPC3 and NPC4 are from the patients with stage 3 disease.
