Interleukin-17 prevents oxidative stress from damaging osteoblast formation by inhibiting autophagic degradation of metallothionein-2

Endocrine Journal
Interleukin 17A (IL-17A) is a key cytokine promoting osteoblast formation, which contributes to osteogenesis. IL-17A functions in autophagy inhibition within osteoblasts.

Global kinome profiling reveals DYRK1A as critical activator of the human mitochondrial import machinery

Nature Communications, 2021
Mitochondrial protein import is mediated by the translocase of the outer membrane (TOM), through which nearly all precursors traverse. Here, the authors perform global in vitro kinome profiling and by this identify that DYRK1A phosphorylates TOM70 and ...

IMPDH inhibition enhances cytarabine efficacy in SAMHD1‐expressing leukaemia cells via guanine nucleotide depletion

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Rat Dlx5 is expressed in the subventricular zone and promotes neuronal differentiation

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2010
The molecular mechanisms and potential clinical applications of neural precursor cells have recently been the subject of intensive study. Dlx5, a homeobox transcription factor related to the distal-less gene in Drosophila, was shown to play an important ...

The role of Dicer protein partners in the processing of microRNA precursors.

PLoS ONE, 2011
One of the cellular functions of the ribonuclease Dicer is to process microRNA precursors (pre-miRNAs) into mature microRNAs (miRNAs). Human Dicer performs this function in cooperation with its protein partners, AGO2, PACT and TRBP.

Establishment of a humanized patient‐derived xenograft mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer for preclinical evaluation of combination immunotherapy

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We have established a humanized orthotopic patient‐derived xenograft (Hu‐oPDX) mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) that recapitulates human tumor–immune interactions. Using combined anti‐PD‐L1/anti‐CD73 immunotherapy, we demonstrate the model's improved biological relevance and enhanced translational value for preclinical ...

Processing of mitochondrial precursor proteins.

Biomedica biochimica acta, 1991
The mitochondrial processing enzyme consists of two components, the mitochondrial processing peptidase (MPP) and processing enhancing protein (PEP). MPP and PEP act cooperatively in proteolytic processing of mitochondrial precursor proteins. Most of the mitochondrial precursors possess aminoterminal presequences (also called "targeting sequences" or ...

Differential expression of cancer‐related genes supports prediction of poor response to first‐line treatments in T‐ALL pediatric patients with high minimal residual disease

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the present work, we have identified a transcriptional signature based on the differential expression of six genes (BCL2&MAST4, HSH2D&LAT2, METRN&PITPNM2) that would facilitate the early detection of T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‐ALL) patients prone to a poor treatment response and could be implemented at diagnosis, along with other risk ...

Endoplasmic reticulum stress and rhodopsin accumulation in an organoid model of Retinitis Pigmentosa carrying a RHO pathogenic variant

Stem Cell Research & Therapy
Background Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) is the most prevalent inherited retinal dystrophy, with more than 120 causative genes. Among them, RHO was the first photoreceptor gene described to harbor mutations responsible for RP. RHO pathogenic variants usually

Characterization and discrimination of lamb with different breeds and muscle types using precursors and volatile compounds

Food Chemistry: X
The unique aromas of mutton stem from the chemical reactions between the characteristic precursors during cooking. This study aimed to establish the relationship of volatile compounds and aroma precursors (protein, fat, free amino acids and fatty acids ...
