Expression of prosaposin and its receptors in the rat cerebellum after kainic acid injection
IBRO Reports, 2017 Prosaposin (PSAP), a highly conserved glycoprotein, is a precursor of saposins A–D. Accumulating evidence suggests that PSAP is a neurotrophic factor that induces differentiation and prevents death in a variety of neuronal cells through the active region

Origin and diversification of steroids: Co-evolution of enzymes and nuclear receptors
, 2010 Recent sequencing of amphioxus and sea urchin genomes has provided important data for understanding the origins of enzymes that synthesize adrenal and sex steroids and the receptors that mediate physiological response to these vertebrate steroids ...

ErbB2 signaling in breast cancer : the role of ErbB, Akt and ShcA phosphorylation [PDF]
, 2004 Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women and is estimated to account for more than 200,000 new cancer cases in the United States in the year 2002. It now represents the second leading cause of death (40,000) from cancer in women.

Systemic dysregulation of apolipoproteins in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis serum
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease that damages motor neurons. This study found that people with ALS show significant changes in blood fats and the proteins that carry them. Several apolipoproteins were higher, lipid balances were altered, and normal protein–lipid relationships were disrupted.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.

Neonatal mice lacking functional Fas death receptors are resistant to hypoxic–ischemic brain injury
Neurobiology of Disease, 2004 Neonatal hypoxia–ischemia (HI) upregulates Fas death receptor expression in the brain, and alterations in expression and activity of Fas signaling intermediates occur in neonatal brain injury. B6.MRL-Tnfrsf6lpr mice lacking functional Fas death receptors

Apoptosis induced by death receptors.
, 2000 Death receptors belong to the TNF receptor family and are characterised by an intracellular death domain that serves to recruit adapter proteins such as TRADD and FADD and cysteine proteases such as Caspase-8.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.
