Signaling pathways for transduction of the initial message of the glycocode into cellular responses [PDF]
, 1998 The sugar units of glycan structures store information and establish an alphabet of life. The language of the oligosaccharide coding units is deciphered by receptors such as lectins and the decoded message can be transduced by multiple signaling pathways.

CCT4 promotes tunneling nanotube formation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) are membranous tunnel‐like structures that transport molecules and organelles between cells. They vary in thickness, and thick nanotubes often contain microtubules in addition to actin fibers. We found that cells expressing monomeric CCT4 generate many thick TNTs with tubulin.

Characterization of Binding of Raltegravir to Plasma Proteins [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2013 ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to characterize raltegravir (RAL) binding to albumin and alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AAG). Unbound and bound RAL were separated by ultrafiltration. The association constant ( K a ) was estimated by a graphical method.

The role of fibroblast growth factors in cell and cancer metabolism
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling regulates crucial signaling cascades that promote cell proliferation, survival, and metabolism. Therefore, FGFs and their receptors are often dysregulated in human diseases, including cancer, to sustain proliferation and rewire metabolism.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Stable, covalent attachment of laminin to microposts improves the contractility of mouse neonatal cardiomyocytes. [PDF]
, 2014 The mechanical output of contracting cardiomyocytes, the muscle cells of the heart, relates to healthy and disease states of the heart. Culturing cardiomyocytes on arrays of elastomeric microposts can enable inexpensive and high-throughput studies of ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) lacks iodide uptake ability due to MAPK activation increasing the expression of the histone methyltransferase EZH2, which represses thyroid differentiation genes (TDGs) such as the sodium iodide symporter (NIS). Dual inhibition of MAPK (U0126) and EZH2 (EPZ6438/Tazemetostat) reverses this mechanism, thus restoring TDG ...

The yeast oxysterol binding protein Kes1 maintains sphingolipid levels. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The oxysterol binding protein family are amphitropic proteins that bind oxysterols, sterols, and possibly phosphoinositides, in a conserved binding pocket.
