Protein-protein interaction analysis highlights additional loci of interest for multiple sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Genetic factors play an important role in determining the risk of multiple sclerosis (MS). The strongest genetic association in MS is located within the major histocompatibility complex class II region (MHC), but more than 50 MS loci of modest effect ...

Expression of the anti-apoptotic protein survivin amd altered function of IGF-1 pathway in TSC2 brain tubers

open access: yes, 2007
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by multiorgan development of benign and occasional malignant tumors. The neurological manifestations include epilepsy, developmental delay, mental retardation, and autism ...

The effect of a bout of resistance exercise on skeletal muscle protein metabolism after severe fasting

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2019
Resistance exercise (RE) activates the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling pathway and increases muscle protein synthesis. Severe fasting induces 5′ adenosine monophosphate‐activated protein kinase (AMPK), which attenuates mTORC1

Everolimus Reduces the Size of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex-Related Huge Renal Angiomyolipomas Exceeding 20 cm in the Longest Diameter

open access: yesCase Reports in Oncology, 2018
We evaluated the efficacy of everolimus in 3 patients who had huge renal angiomyolipomas associated with tuberous sclerosis complex. Two patients with large lipid-rich angiomyolipomas had a history of renal transarterial embolization for renal bleeding ...

Natural Products Exhibit Therapeutic Potential in Treating Rheumatoid Arthritis by Targeting the PI3K/Akt Signaling Pathway

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes how natural products, mainly including flavonoids, terpenoids, alkaloids, and polyphenols alleviate RA via PI3K/Akt pathway, regulating inflammation, proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and osteoclast differentiation. The figure was created by Figdraw (https://www.figdraw.com/#/).

mTOR Deletion Alleviates CD4+ T-Cell Dysfunction in Sepsis through Reducing CTLA4 Accumulation Mediated by Rescuing Autophagy

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation
Sepsis has been the leading cause of death in ICU patients. CD4+ T cells are the mainstay of the body’s immune system, and the depletion of CD4+ T cells in sepsis is of great concern.

A cell-penetrating ester of the neural metabolite lanthionine ketimine stimulates autophagy through the mTORC1 pathway: Evidence for a mechanism of action with pharmacological implications for neurodegenerative pathologies

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2015
Autophagy is a fundamental cellular recycling process vulnerable to compromise in neurodegeneration. We now report that a cell-penetrating neurotrophic and neuroprotective derivative of the central nervous system (CNS) metabolite, lanthionine ketimine ...

Non‐canonical PKG1 regulation in cardiovascular health and disease

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
It is well established that the cyclic GMP‐dependent protein kinase I (PKG1) is canonically activated by cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), enabling its regulation of vascular tone, cardiac function and smooth muscle homeostasis. However, diverse non‐canonical stimuli of PKG1 have also been identified.

FUS-SMN Protein Interactions Link the Motor Neuron Diseases ALS and SMA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Mutations in the RNA binding protein FUS cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a fatal adult motor neuron disease. Decreased expression of SMN causes the fatal childhood motor neuron disorder spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
