Pro-Tumorigenic Phosphorylation of p120 Catenin in Renal and Breast Cancer. [PDF]
Altered protein expression and phosphorylation are common events during malignant transformation. These perturbations have been widely explored in the context of E-cadherin cell-cell adhesion complexes, which are central in the maintenance of the normal ...

The Differential Effects of pp120 (Ceacam 1) on the Mitogenic Action of Insulin and Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Are Regulated by the Nonconserved Tyrosine 1316 in the Insulin Receptor [PDF]
pp120 (Ceacam 1) undergoes ligand-stimulated phosphorylation by the insulin receptor, but not by the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R). This differential phosphorylation is regulated by the C terminus of the beta-subunit of the insulin receptor, the least conserved domain of the two receptors.

Neural mapping of prepulse-induced startle reflex modulation as indices of sensory information processing in healthy and clinical populations: A systematic review. [PDF]
Abstract Startle reflex is modulated when a weaker sensory stimulus (“prepulse”) precedes a startling stimulus (“pulse”). Prepulse Inhibition (PPI) is the attenuation of the startle reflex (prepulse precedes pulse by 30–500 ms), whereas Prepulse Facilitation (PPF) is the enhancement of the startle reflex (prepulse precedes pulse by 500–6000 ms).

Impaired glucose tolerance is associated with enhanced postprandial pancreatic polypeptide secretion. [PDF]
Highlights Compared with normal glucose tolerance subjects, impaired glucose regulation and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients have an enhanced postprandial pancreatic polypeptide (PP) secretion. In patients with T2DM, the secretion of PP is mainly affected by body mass index and blood glucose.

Current perspective on biological properties of plasmacytoid dendritic cells and dysfunction in gut. [PDF]
pDCs are a subset of dendritic cells, and transcription factors play a crucial role in the process. pDCs contribute to intestinal immune responses by generating interferon (IFN) and presenting antigens. pDCs guard the intestinal mucosa and protect against the invasion of microbiota and pathogens in the gut, playing a pivotal role in gut infection and ...

Mechanism and function of CEACAM1 splice isoforms. [PDF]
Abstract Background Alternative splicing is a fundamental mechanism in the post‐transcriptional regulation of genes. The multifunctional transmembrane glycoprotein receptor carcinoembryonic antigen‐related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1) undergoes extensive alternative splicing to allow for tunable functions in cell signalling, adhesion and ...

Phenotypic drift in metastatic progression of breast cancer: A case report with histologically heterogeneous lesions that are clonally related. [PDF]
Breast cancer metastasis to the stomach is rare; invasive lobular carcinoma has a predilection to spread to the gastrointestinal system and is morphologically similar to primary diffuse gastric carcinoma. This case highlights heterogeneous metastatic progression and that documentation of heterogeneity is important for informing future treatment ...

Insulin Stimulates pp120 Endocytosis in Cells Co-expressing Insulin Receptors [PDF]
pp120, a substrate of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase, is a plasma membrane glycoprotein that is expressed in the hepatocyte as two spliced isoforms differing by the presence (full-length) or absence (truncated) of most of the intracellular domain including all phosphorylation sites.

PP120 Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization (FISH) Vs Conventional Cytogenetic (CC) For Detecting High-Risk Genetic Mutations In Multiple Myeloma [PDF]
IntroductionThe Revised International Staging System (R-ISS) International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) recommends a minimal panel to detect high-risk cytogenetics (del17p, t[4;14], t[14;16]) for patients with multiple myeloma (MM). In the Brazilian Public Health System, the use of FISH is currently authorized for rare diseases only, not including MM ...

Effect of pp120 on Receptor-mediated Insulin Endocytosis Is Regulated by the Juxtamembrane Domain of the Insulin Receptor [PDF]
pp120, a substrate of the insulin receptor tyrosine kinase, does not undergo ligand-stimulated phosphorylation by the insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) receptor. However, replacement of the C-terminal domain of the IGF-1 receptor beta-subunit with the corresponding segment of the insulin receptor restored pp120 phosphorylation by the chimeric ...
