Ablation of TSC2 enhances insulin secretion by increasing the number of mitochondria through activation of mTORC1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
AIM:We previously found that chronic tuberous sclerosis protein 2 (TSC2) deletion induces activation of mammalian target of rapamycin Complex 1 (mTORC1) and leads to hypertrophy of pancreatic beta cells from pancreatic beta cell-specific TSC2 knockout ...

Single serine on TSC2 exerts biased control over mTORC1 activation mediated by ERK1/2 but not Akt

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2022
Both ERK1/2 and Akt kinases activate mTORC1, but only the former is bidirectionally regulated by the status of serine S1364 on TSC2 that confers input-selective mTORC1 amplification or attenuation. Tuberous sclerosis complex-2 (TSC2) negatively regulates

Genetically engineered human cortical spheroid models of tuberous sclerosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a multisystem developmental disorder caused by mutations in the TSC1 or TSC2 genes, whose protein products are negative regulators of mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 signaling. Hallmark pathologies of TSC are

Tubers from patients with tuberous sclerosis complex are characterized by changes in microtubule biology through ROCK2 signalling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Most patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) develop cortical tubers that cause severe neurological disabilities. It has been suggested that defects in neuronal differentiation and/or migration underlie the appearance of tubers.

The 3‐Hit Metabolic Signaling Model for Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Summary

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a highly heritable yet environmentally sensitive neurodevelopmental condition whose biological heterogeneity has resisted a unifying causal explanation for over 100 years. The 3‐hit metabolic signaling model proposes that ASD arises from abnormal persistence of an evolutionarily conserved stress‐response ...

Enhanced Sestrin expression through Tanshinone 2A treatment improves PI3K-dependent inhibition of glioma growth

open access: yesCell Death Discovery, 2023
Glioblastomas are a highly aggressive cancer type which respond poorly to current pharmaceutical treatments, thus novel therapeutic approaches need to be investigated.

Synaptic Wnt/GSK3β Signaling Hub in Autism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Indexación: ScopusHundreds of genes have been associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) and the interaction of weak and de novo variants derive from distinct autistic phenotypes thus making up the "spectrum." The convergence of these variants in ...

Serotonin 5‐HT7 receptor signaling in neuropsychiatric disorders

open access: yesBulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
5‐HT7R recruits Gs, G12, and β‐arrestin signaling to regulate neuronal plasticity, circuit function, and kinase‐linked intracellular responses. This review summarizes how these pathway‐selective modules contribute to autism spectrum disorder, depression, and schizophrenia, highlighting 5‐HT7R as a pathway‐informed therapeutic target. Abstract Serotonin

Cannabidiol in Anorexia Nervosa: A Double‐Blind Randomized Placebo Controlled Pilot Study to Test Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Symptom Change

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a severe psychiatric disorder marked by an intense fear of gaining weight and persistent body dissatisfaction, both during periods of underweight and after weight restoration. The endocannabinoid system may offer therapeutic benefits, particularly in reducing anxiety.

Insights into Overlappings of Fibrosis and Cancer: Exploring the Tumor-related Cardinal Genes in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesIranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2023
The pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is quite similar to that of cancer pathogenesis, and several pathways appear to be involved in both disorders.
