Receptor activity–modifying protein 3 enhances GLP-1-mediated insulin secretion

Journal of Biological Chemistry
Abstract The targeting of the Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) for diabetes and obesity is not a novel strategy, with recent therapeutics showing efficacy in weight loss and glycaemic control. However, they are also associated with side effects, including gastrointestinal disruptions and pancreatitis.

In vitro models of cancer‐associated fibroblast heterogeneity uncover subtype‐specific effects of CRISPR perturbations

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

The nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking of a chromatin-modifyng and remodelling protein (KMT2C), in osteosarcoma [PDF]

, 2018
Osteosarcoma is the most common paediatric primary non-hematopoietic bone tumor; the survival is related to the response to chemotherapy and development of metastases.

Dual targeting of RET and SRC synergizes in RET fusion‐positive cancer cells

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Despite the strong activity of selective RET tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), resistance of RET fusion‐positive (RET+) lung cancer and thyroid cancer frequently occurs and is mainly driven by RET‐independent bypass mechanisms. Son et al. show that SRC TKIs significantly inhibit PAK and AKT survival signaling and enhance the efficacy of RET TKIs in ...

Redox-signaling in innate immune memory: Similar mechanisms in animals/humans and plants

Redox Biology
Plants and animals/humans have evolved sophisticated innate immune systems to cope with microbial attack. Innate immunity implies the presence of membrane-located and intracellular receptors to recognize compounds released by damage or by invading ...

Amylin: Localization, Effects on Cerebral Arteries and on Local Cerebral Blood Flow in the Cat

The Scientific World Journal, 2001
Amylin and adrenomedullin are two peptides structurally related to calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). We studied the occurrence of amylin in trigeminal ganglia and cerebral blood vessels of the cat with immunocytochemistry and evaluated the role of ...

The Effects of Epigenetics on Stress Response [PDF]

, 2016
Despite the vast amount of resources at the disposal of humanity today, the intricacies of human biology are often a mystery. The chemical and biological products of the human genome have been well studied and documented, but many of the chemical and ...

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...

Pan-cancer analysis revealed prognosis value and immunological relevance of RAMPs

Heliyon
Whether receptor activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs) play a key role in human cancer prognosis and immunity remains unknown. We used data from the public databases, The Cancer Genome Atlas, Therapeutically Applicable Research to Generate Effective ...
