Papillomavirus E5: the smallest oncoprotein with many functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Papillomaviruses (PVs) are established agents of human and animal cancers. They infect cutaneous and mucous epithelia. High Risk (HR) Human PVs (HPVs) are consistently associated with cancer of the uterine cervix, but are also involved in the ...

Involvement of Platelet-Derived Growth Factor–BB and Its Receptor-β in Hypoxia-Induced Depression of Excitatory Synaptic Transmission in the Nucleus Tractus Solitarius of Mice

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2010
The role of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB / PDGF receptor (PDGFR)-β signal in inhibition of synaptic transmission by hypoxia is unclear. In the nucleus tractus solitarius neurons, hypoxia with N2 or NaCN decreased the amplitude of excitatory ...

Stage specific requirement of platelet-derived growth factor receptor-α in embryonic development. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRα) is a cell-surface receptor tyrosine kinase for platelet-derived growth factors. Correct timing and level of Pdgfra expression is crucial for embryo development, and deletion of Pdgfra caused ...

Receptor Tyrosine Kinases Fall into Distinct Classes Based on Their Inferred Signaling Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Although many anticancer drugs that target receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) provide clinical benefit, their long-term use is limited by resistance that is often attributed to increased abundance or activation of another RTK that compensates for the ...

Cardiotrophin-1 promotes a high survival rate in rabbits with lethal fulminant hepatitis of viral origin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) causes lethal fulminant hepatitis closely resembling acute liver failure (ALF) in humans. In this study, we investigated whether cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1), a cytokine with hepatoprotective properties, could attenuate ...

Safety and Efficacy of Sunitinib in Patients with Unresectable Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Oncology, 2012
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) are becoming increasingly common, with the majority of patients presenting with either lymph node involvement or metastatic disease, thus requiring systemic therapy.

Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta is critical for zebrafish intersegmental vessel formation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFRbeta) is a tyrosine kinase receptor known to affect vascular development. The zebrafish is an excellent model to study specific regulators of vascular development, yet the role of PDGF signaling has not ...

The platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha promoter-directed expression of cre recombinase in mouse placenta. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BackgroundNumerous pathologies of pregnancy originate from placental dysfunction. It is essential to understand the functions of key genes in the placenta in order to discern the etiology of placental pathologies.

Thrombin Stimulated Platelet-Derived Exosomes Inhibit Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptor-Beta Expression in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2016
Background/Aims: It is difficult to predict acute thrombotic cardiovascular events in the clinic. Few studies have reported the presence of plasma exosomes containing microRNAs (miRNAs) in cardiovascular events.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS 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
