Obesity and cancer: existing and new hypotheses for a causal connection [PDF]
Existing explanations of obesity-associated cancer emphasise direct mutagenic effects of dietary components or hormonal imbalance. Some of these hypotheses are reviewed briefly, but recent evidence suggests a major role for chronic inflammation in cancer

ObjectivesSemaphorin 4D (Sema4D) is constitutively expressed on T cells and osteoclasts, and regulates T cell proliferation and bone remodeling. In addition, several studies have shown that Sema4D is involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmunity.

AIP limits neurotransmitter release by inhibiting calcium bursts from the ryanodine receptor
In this work the authors show that AIP (aryl hydrocarbon receptor-interacting protein), a gene frequently mutated in association with pituitary tumors, regulates neurotransmitter release by inhibiting calcium release from ryanodine receptors.

CRISPR/Cas-based screening of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in macrophages with an NF-κB reporter. [PDF]
The innate immune system protects against infections by initiating an inducible inflammatory response. NF-κB is one of the critical transcription factors controlling this complex response, but some aspects of its regulation remain unclear.

The kynurenine pathway and the brain: challenges, controversies and promises [PDF]
Research on the neurobiology of the kynurenine pathway has suffered years of relative obscurity because tryptophan degradation, and its involvement in both physiology and major brain diseases, was viewed almost exclusively through the lens of the well ...

Role of gut microbiota-derived signals in the regulation of gastrointestinal motility
The gastrointestinal (GI) tract harbors trillions of commensal microbes, called the gut microbiota, which plays a significant role in the regulation of GI physiology, particularly GI motility.
