Dietary and biomarker‐guided strategies as supportive measures in the fragile X syndrome
Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.Abstract The fragile X syndrome (FXS) is an inherited neurodevelopmental disorder that primarily affects males, often resulting in an IQ below 55, while about two‐thirds of females also experience intellectual disability. Physical features may include an elongated face, prominent ears, finger joint laxity, and enlarged testes in males.

A Daple-Akt feed-forward loop enhances noncanonical Wnt signals by compartmentalizing β-catenin. [PDF]
, 2017 Cellular proliferation is antagonistically regulated by canonical and noncanonical Wnt signals; their dysbalance triggers cancers. We previously showed that a multimodular signal transducer, Daple, enhances PI3-K→Akt signals within the noncanonical Wnt ...

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.What's New? Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is characterized by a dense extracellular matrix, and how invasive tumor cells overcome such biomechanical constraints remains unclear. This study identifies the actin‐related protein 2/3 complex as a key regulator of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma invasiveness, driving fibroblast migration through β1 ...

Transient but not genetic loss of miR-451 attenuates the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]
, 2013 <b>Rationale:</b> MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs involved in the regulation of gene expression and have recently been implicated in the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.What's New? Unraveling the networks that regulate androgen receptor (AR) function is critical to better understanding prostate cancer development and progression. Of particular interest in this regard is the long non‐coding RNA PVT1, which regulates gene expression in cancer and is upregulated in prostate tumors.

Rac1 activation upon Wnt stimulation requires Rac1 and Vav2 binding to p120-catenin [PDF]
Journal of Cell Science, 2012 A role for Rac1 GTPase in canonical Wnt signalling has been recently demonstrated, being required for β-catenin translocation to the nucleus. In this article we have investigated the mechanism of Rac1 stimulation by Wnt. Up-regulation of Rac1activity by Wnt3a temporally correlates with enhanced p120-catenin binding to Rac1 and Vav2.

The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease
iNew Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies
iNew Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.
