Introduction The mechanisms underlying sleep deprivation‐induced memory impairments and relevant compensatory signaling pathways remain elusive. We tested the hypothesis that increased brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression in the basal ...

Homologous Control of Protein Signaling Networks [PDF]
In a previous paper we introduced a method called augmented sparse reconstruction (ASR) that identifies links among nodes of ordinary differential equation networks, given a small set of observed trajectories with various initial conditions. The main purpose of that technique was to reconstruct intracellular protein signaling networks. In this paper we

ABSTRACT Repotrectinib is approved in the US for treating ROS1‐positive non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and solid tumors harboring an NTRK gene fusion. A Population Pharmacokinetic (PopPK) model for repotrectinib was developed using data from 620 adults (118 healthy volunteers and 502 patients) across seven studies and 24 pediatric patients from one

A Novel Bis-Coumarin Targets Multiple Tyrosine Kinases of Key Signaling Pathways in Melanoma and Inhibits Melanoma Cell Survival, Proliferation, and Migration [PDF]
Melanoma is one of the most dangerous skin malignancies due to its high metastatic tendency and high mortality. Activation of key signaling pathways enforcing melanoma progression depends on phosphorylation of tyrosine kinases, and oxidative stress. We here investigated the effect of the new bis-coumarin derivative (3,5-DCPBC) on human melanoma cell ...

Astrocytic Hevin/SPARCL‐1 Regulates Cognitive Decline in Pathological and Normal Brain Aging
Hevin/Sparcl‐1 is a synaptogenic protein secreted by astrocytes. We used adeno‐associated virus (AAV) to increase its expression in hippocampal astrocytes of APP/PSEN1 mice, an animal model for Alzheimer's disease (AD). This procedure improved cognitive performance both in the AD model and in middle‐aged wild‐type animals.

A critical role of tropomyosins in TGF-beta regulation of the actin cytoskeleton and cell motility in epithelial cells [PDF]
We have investigated transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta)-mediated induction of actin stress fibers in normal and metastatic epithelial cells. We found that stress fiber formation requires de novo protein synthesis, p38Mapk and Smad signaling.

Innovative pharmacotherapy for hepatic metabolic and chronic inflammatory diseases in China
Abstract Liver disease constitutes a significant global health concern, particularly in China where it has distinctive characteristics. China grapples with a staggering 300 million cases, predominantly due to hepatitis B and metabolic non‐alcoholic fatty liver disease. Additionally, hepatocellular carcinoma has become a prevalent which is a lethal type

Mechanical Force and Actin Dynamics during Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (cSCC) Progression: Opportunities for Novel Treatment Modalities [PDF]
Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) accounts for 25% of cutaneous malignancies diagnosed in the Caucasian population. Surgical removal in combination with radio- and chemotherapy is an effective treatment; however, prognosis for patients suffering ...

Diagnosis and management of tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) fusion sarcomas : expert recommendations from the World Sarcoma Network [PDF]
Sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of malignancies with mesenchymal lineage differentiation. The discovery of neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) gene fusions as tissue-agnostic oncogenic drivers has led to new personalized therapies for a ...
