Importin-β facilitates nuclear import of human GW proteins and balances cytoplasmic gene silencing protein levels [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) guide Argonaute (Ago) proteins to distinct target mRNAs leading to translational repression and mRNA decay. Ago proteins interact with a member of the GW protein family, referred to as TNRC6A-C in mammals, which coordinate downstream ...

Expression of intracellular toll-like receptors in leukoplakia and oral squamous cell carcinoma [PDF]
Objective: Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a group of pathogen recognition receptors expressed not only on immune cells but also cancer cells, where TLR activation may lead to tumour progression or suppression.

Cytoplasmic and Nuclear Functions of cIAP1
Cellular inhibitor of apoptosis 1 (cIAP1) is a cell signaling regulator of the IAP family. Through its E3-ubiquitine ligase activity, it has the ability to activate intracellular signaling pathways, modify signal transduction pathways by changing protein-

Stimulus-dependent regulation of nuclear Ca2+ signaling in cardiomyocytes: a role of neuronal calcium sensor-1. [PDF]
In cardiomyocytes, intracellular calcium (Ca2+) transients are elicited by electrical and receptor stimulations, leading to muscle contraction and gene expression, respectively.

Quantitative estimates of cytoplasmic and nuclear oestrogen receptors in chick oviduct. Effect of oestrogen on receptor concentration and subcellular distribution. [PDF]
[3H]Oestradiol exchange techniques were developed for the determination of specific cestrogen receptor site concentrations in the cytoplasm and nuclei of chick oviduct cells. Non‐labelled receptor‐bound oestrogens were exchanged with [3H]oestradiol during a 24‐h incubation at 20 °C. 2 h at 30 °C or 45 min at 37 °C.

Nuclear and cytoplasmic oestrogen receptors in squamous carcinoma of the cervix [PDF]
Nuclear and cytoplasmic oestrogen receptors (REN and REC) were sought in 5 normal cervices and in 43 specimens of squamous carcinoma of the cervix. All 3 tissues components of the 5 normal cervices contained both REN and REC. Thirty-five (81%) of the tumours contained receptors, but in only 9 (21%) were they found in both subcellular compartments ...
