Calcium as a crucial cofactor for low density lipoprotein receptor folding in the endoplasmic reticulum [PDF]
The family of low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors mediate uptake of a plethora of ligands from the circulation and couple this to signaling, thereby performing a crucial role in physiological processes including embryonic development, cancer ...

A key role for E-cadherin in intestinal homeostasis and Paneth cell maturation. [PDF]
E-cadherin is a major component of adherens junctions. Impaired expression of E-cadherin in the small intestine and colon has been linked to a disturbed intestinal homeostasis and barrier function.

Extracellular matrix fragmentation in young, healthy cartilaginous tissues [PDF]
Although the composition and structure of cartilaginous tissues is complex, collagen II fibrils and aggrecan are the most abundant assemblies in both articular cartilage (AC) and the nucleus pulposus (NP) of the intervertebral disc (IVD).

Lipin proteins and metabolic homeostasis
The lipin protein family, consisting of three members, was first identified early this century. In the last few years, the lipin proteins have been shown to have important roles in glycerolipid biosynthesis and gene regulation, and mutations in the corresponding genes cause lipodystrophy, myoglobinuria, and inflammatory disorders.

Melanocortins and agouti-related protein modulate the excitability of two arcuate nucleus neuron populations by alteration of resting potassium conductances [PDF]
The hypothalamic melanocortin system is crucial for the control of appetite and body weight. Two of the five melanocortin receptors, MC3R and MC4R are involved in hypothalamic control of energy homeostasis, with the MC4R having the major influence. It is

Cellular maintenance of nuclear protein homeostasis [PDF]
The accumulation and aggregation of misfolded proteins is the primary hallmark for more than 45 human degenerative diseases. These devastating disorders include Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Over 15 degenerative diseases are associated with the aggregation of misfolded proteins specifically in the nucleus of
