OTUD6A in Airway Epithelial Cells Exacerbates Allergic Asthma by Promoting Airway Inflammation and Airway Remodeling Through Deubiquitination of hResistin/mRELMα

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates a novel mechanistic role of the deubiquitinase OTUD6A in asthma pathogenesis, uncovering its regulatory function in airway inflammation and airway remodeling through the stabilization of hResistin/mRELMα. This study offers a novel regulatory axis (OTUD6A‐hResistin/mRELMα) in asthma pathogenesis and OTUD6A inhibition as a potential

Perivascular adipose tissue inflammation in vascular disease [PDF]

, 2017
Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. In vascular pathologies, perivascular adipose tissue increases in volume and becomes dysfunctional, with altered cellular composition and molecular ...

F‐Box and Leucine‐Rich Repeat Protein 4 (FBXL4) Maintains Sarcomere Integrity and Cardiac Function by Enhancing K48‐Linked Ubiquitinated Degradation of Profilin‐1 (PFN1)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram depicting the proposed signaling mechanisms underlying the effects of FBXL4 in the setting of cardiac hypertrophy. Under hypertrophic stimulation, cardiomyocytes‐specific overexpression FBXL4 maintains sarcomere integrity and cardiac function by enhancing K48‐linked ubiquitinated degradation of PFN1 at the K70 site.

Eicosapentaenoic and Docosahexaenoic Acids Attenuate Progression of Albuminuria in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Coronary Artery Disease

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
BackgroundAlbuminuria is a marker of inflammation and an independent predictor of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The current study evaluated whether eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation attenuates ...

Loss of angiotensin II receptor expression in dopamine neurons in Parkinson’s disease correlates with pathological progression and is accompanied by increases in Nox4- and 8-OH guanosine-related nucleic acid oxidation and caspase-3 activation [PDF]

, 2015
In rodent models of Parkinsons disease (PD), dopamine neuron loss is accompanied by increased expression of angiotensin II (AngII), its type 1 receptor (AT1), and NADPH oxidase (Nox) in the nigral dopamine neurons and microglia.

Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptor Gene Transfer Downregulates Angiotensin II Type 1a Receptor in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells [PDF]

Hypertension, 2002
Two distinct subtypes of angiotensin (Ang) II receptors, type 1 (AT 1 ) and type 2 (AT 2 ), have been identified. Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) usually express AT 1 receptor. To elucidate the direct effects of the AT 2 receptor on the AT

SETDB2 Mitigates Podocyte Dysfunction in Diabetic Kidney Disease Through Epigenetic Silencing of SMAD3

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SETDB2 epigenetically represses Smad3 transcription by increasing H3K9me3 enrichment at its promoter, thereby mitigating podocyte dysfunction in DKD. The transcription factor TCF21 binds directly to the Setdb2 promoter and enhances its expression in podocytes. Abstract Podocyte dysfunction represents both an early pathological hallmark and a key driver
