P21 and p27: roles in carcinogenesis and drug resistanceemail this article save this article to My Clippings discuss this articlediscuss this article
Review ArticlesAbde M. Abukhdeir, Ben Ho Park, Expert Reviews in Molecular Medicine, Volume 10 , pp e19AbstractHuman cancers arise from an imbalance of cell growth and cell death. Key proteins that govern this balance are those that mediate the cell cycle. Several different molecular effectors have been identified that tightly regulate specific phases of the cell cycle, including cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and CDK inhibitors. Notably, loss of expression or function of two G1-checkpoint CDK inhibitors has been implicated in the genesis or progression of many human malignancies. Additionally, there is a growin...

Ikk-2 is required for tnf-α-induced invasion and proliferation of human mesenchymal stem cellsemail this article save this article to My Clippings discuss this articlediscuss this article
In conclusion, we demonstrated that the NF-κB pathway components, p65 and IKK-2, are expressed in hMSCs. Our data provide evidence that this signal transduction pathway is implicated in TNF-α-mediated invasion and proliferation of hMSCs. Therefore, hMSC recruitment to sites of tissue injury may, at least in part, be regulated by the NF-κB signal transduction pathway.

Polymorphisms of the tumor necrosis factor-alpha (tnf) and the tnf-alpha converting enzyme (tace/adam17) genes in relation to cardiovascular mortality: the athero gene studyemail this article save this article to My Clippings discuss this articlediscuss this article
Abstract  Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is a major cytokine involved in inflammatory reaction and a mortality predictor in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Plasma levels of soluble TNF (sTNF) depend on the rate of its synthesis but also on its shedding from cell surface, a mechanism mainly regulated by the TNF alpha converting enzyme (TACE or ADAM17). We investigated the relationship between ADAM17 and TNF polymorphisms, circulating levels of shed ADAM17 substrates (sTNF, sTNFR1 and sTNFR2), and cardiovascular risk in a prospective cohort of CAD patients. Five tag single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SN...

In this study, the molecular mechanism behind the effectiveness of this combination therapy is investigated in human neutrophils. Human neutrophils were preincubated with salmeterol or FP or the combination. The amount of interleukin-8 (IL-8), elastase and matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)-2 and -9 releases, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and expression of MAP kinase phosphatase (MKP-1) and glucocorticoid receptor (GR) were determined. Cigarette smoke medium (CSM) induces an increased expression of CXC receptors and the production of ROS that may explain the strong production of IL-8 by neutrophils. The exp...

Critical immunological pathways are downregulated in apeced patient dendritic cellsemail this article save this article to My Clippings discuss this articlediscuss this article
Abstract  Autoimmune polyendocrinopathy–candidiasis–ectodermal dystrophy (APECED) is a monogenic autoimmune disease caused by mutations in the autoimmune regulator (AIRE) gene. AIRE functions as a transcriptional regulator, and it has a central role in the development of immunological tolerance. AIRE regulates the expression of ectopic antigens in epithelial cells of the thymic medulla and has been shown to participate in the development of peripheral tolerance. However, the mechanism of action of AIRE has remained elusive. To further investigate the role of AIRE in host immune functions, we studied the p...

Gene-environment interactions and epigenetic basis of human diseases.email this article save this article to My Clippings discuss this articlediscuss this article
Most human diseases are related in some way to the loss or gain in gene functions. Regulation of gene expression is a complex process. In addition to genetic mechanisms, epigenetic causes are gaining new perspectives in human diseases related to gene deregulation. Most eukaryotic genes are packed into chromatin structures, which lead to high condensations of the genes that require dynamic chromatin remodeling processes to facilitate their transcription. DNA methylation and histone modifications represent two of the major chromatin remodeling processes. They also serve to integrate environmental signals for the cells to...

Abstract  Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) produced by cyanobacteria in diverse water systems is a potent specific hepatotoxin and has been documented to induce various liver diseases via oxidative stress. However, the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. In the current study, we investigated the molecular events involved in the oxidative liver injury by MC-LR. Our results demonstrated that MC-LR induced liver injury in mice through a series of steps that began with the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which stimulated the sustained activation of JNK and its downstream targets, AP-1 and Bid.

Large-scale quantitative LC-MS/MS analysis of detergent-resistant membrane proteins from rat renal collecting duct. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol. 2008 Jul 2; Authors: Yu MJ, Pisitkun T, Wang G, Aranda JF, Gonzales PA, Tchapyjnikov D, Shen RF, Alonso MA, Knepper MA In the renal collecting duct, vasopressin controls transport of water and solutes via regulation of membrane transporters such as aquaporin-2 (AQP2) and the epithelial urea transporter, UT-A. To discover proteins potentially involved in vasopressin action in rat kidney collecting ducts, membrane "raft" proteins were enriched by harvesting detergent-resis...

Connective tissue growth factor inhibits adipocyte differentiation.email this article save this article to My Clippings discuss this articlediscuss this article
Adipocyte differentiation is a key process implicated in the pathogenesis of obesity and insulin resistance. Its regulation is triggered by a cascade of transcription factors, including the CCAAT/enhancer binding proteins (C/EBPs) and PPARgamma. Growth factors such as transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) are known to inhibit adipocyte differentiation in vitro via the C/EBP pathway, and in vivo, but whether a downstream mediator of TGF-beta1, connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) also known as CCN2, has a similar role, is unknown. Mouse 3T3-L1 cells were differentiated into adipocytes using standard methods and...
