Understanding Bile Acid Signaling in Diabetes: From Pathophysiology to Therapeutic Targets [PDF]
Diabetes and obesity have reached an epidemic status worldwide. Diabetes increases the risk for cardiovascular disease and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Primary bile acids are synthesized in hepatocytes and are transformed to secondary bile acids in

Kdm3a lysine demethylase is an Hsp90 client required for cytoskeletal rearrangements during spermatogenesis [PDF]
The lysine demethylase Kdm3a (Jhdm2a, Jmjd1a) is required for male fertility, sex determination, and metabolic homeostasis through its nuclear role in chromatin remodeling.

Widespread nuclear and cytoplasmic accumulation of mutant androgen receptor in SBMA patients [PDF]
Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) is an inherited adult onset motor neuron disease caused by the expansion of a polyglutamine (polyQ) tract within the androgen receptor (AR), affecting only males. The characteristic pathological finding is nuclear inclusions (NIs) consisting of mutant AR with an expanded polyQ in residual motor neurons, and in ...

Specific nuclear localizing sequence directs two myosin isoforms to the cell nucleus in calmodulin-sensitive manner. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Nuclear myosin I (NM1) was the first molecular motor identified in the cell nucleus. Together with nuclear actin, they participate in crucial nuclear events such as transcription, chromatin movements, and chromatin remodeling.

Kap-Centric control of nuclear pores based on promiscuous binding to FG nucleoporins [PDF]
Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are remarkable molecular machines that perforate the nuclear envelope (NE) in eukaryotic cells and mediate the rapid bidirectional traffic of hundreds of proteins, ribonucleoproteins, and metabolites across the nuclear ...

A Study of Cytoplasmic and Nuclear Estrogen and Progestin Receptors in Gynecologic Neoplasms
A rapid method for simultaneous preparation of cytosol and nuclear estrogen (E) and progestin (P) receptors and their in vitro determination is described. The method was applied to several uterine or ovarian surgical specimens to evaluate their steroid hormone "dependence". The results suggest that low cytoplasmic E receptor levels (ERc) are associated

Endothelin-Induced Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Calcium Depletion Waves in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells [PDF]
Agonist-stimulated waves of elevated cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i ) regulate blood vessel tone and vasomotion in vascular smooth muscle. Previous studies employing cytoplasmic Ca2+ indicators revealed that these Ca2+ waves were generated by a ...

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.
