ERK signaling controls productive HIF-1 binding to chromatin and cancer cell adaptation to hypoxia through HIF-1α interaction with NPM1
(2021)The hypoxia-inducible factor HIF-1 is essential for oxygen homeostasis. Despite its well-understood oxygen-dependent expression, regulation of its transcriptional activity remains unclear. We show that phosphorylation by ... -
An experimental workflow for studying barrier integrity, permeability, and tight junction composition and localization in a single endothelial cell monolayer: Proof of concept
(2021)Endothelial and epithelial barrier function is crucial for the maintenance of physiological processes. The barrier paracellular permeability depends on the composition and spatial distribution of the cell-to-cell tight ... -
Expression of Fibroblast Activation Protein Is Enriched in Neuroendocrine Prostate Cancer and Predicts Worse Survival
(2022)Background: Advanced prostate cancer (PC) may accumulate genomic alterations that hallmark lineage plasticity and transdifferentiation to a neuroendocrine (NE) phenotype. Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is a key player ... -
From warrior genes to translational solutions: novel insights into monoamine oxidases (MAOs) and aggression
(2021)The pervasive and frequently devastating nature of aggressive behavior calls for a collective effort to understand its psychosocial and neurobiological underpinnings. Regarding the latter, diverse brain areas, neural ... -
Functional expression of mammalian opioid receptors in insect cells and high-throughput screening platforms for receptor ligand mimetics
(2005)Lepidopteran cell lines have been engineered to constitutively express high levels of mouse δ opioid receptors either alone or in combination with human Gα16 protein. Biochemical and pharmacological studies demonstrate ... -
Growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor I, and leptin interaction in human cultured lutein granulosa cells steroidogenesis
(2008)Objective: To investigate the effect of leptin on the actions of growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in ovarian steroidogenesis in vitro. Design: In vitro cell culture study. Setting: Research ... -
HDAC7 is a major contributor in the pathogenesis of infant t(4;11) proB acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(2021)[No abstract available] -
HIF-2α phosphorylation by CK1δ promotes erythropoietin secretion in liver cancer cells under hypoxia
(2016)Hypoxia inducible factor 2 (HIF-2) is a transcriptional activator implicated in the cellular response to hypoxia. Regulation of its inducible subunit, HIF-2α (also known as EPAS1), involves posttranslational modifications. ... -
HLA class II peptide-binding-region analysis reveals funneling of polymorphism in action
(2021)Background: HLA-class II proteins hold important roles in key physiological processes. The purpose of this study was to compile all class II alleles reported in human population and investigate patterns in pocket variants ... -
IL-1 cytokines in cardiovascular disease: Diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic implications
(2008)Interleukins (ILs) are key mediators in the chronic vascular inflammatory response underlying several aspects of cardiovascular disease. Due to their powerful pro-inflammatory potential, and the fact that they are highly ... -
IL-35: a new immunomodulator in autoimmune rheumatic diseases
(2018)IL-35 is a relatively new cytokine that emerges as an important immunomodulator. IL-35 belongs to IL-12 cytokine family that includes IL-12, IL-23, IL-27, and IL-35. These cytokines are heterodimers that share subunits and ... -
The immunopathogenetic role of autoantibodies in canine autoimmune hepatitis: Lessons to learn from human autoimmune hepatitis
(2012)Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is not a disease entity restricted to man, but it can be found in other animals including canines. An increasing number of studies have focused on the immunopathogenesis of human autoimmune ... -
In response to the letter to the editor on our manuscript “High sensitive cardiac troponin T: Testing the test” by Dr. Badertscher
(2017)[No abstract available] -
In vivo base editing by a single i.v. vector injection for treatment of hemoglobinopathies
(2022)Individuals with β-thalassemia or sickle cell disease and hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HPFH) possessing 30% fetal hemoglobin (HbF) appear to be symptom free. Here, we used a nonintegrating HDAd5/35++ vector ... -
Inhibition of mRNA deadenylation by the nuclear cap binding complex (CBC)
(2006)Poly(A)-specific ribonuclease (PARN) is a cap-interacting and poly(A)-specific 3′-exoribonuclease. Here we have investigated how the cap binding complex (CBC) affects human PARN activity. We showed that CBC, via its 80-kDa ... -
Lamin B receptor: Interplay between structure, function and localization
(2017)Lamin B receptor (LBR) is an integral protein of the inner nuclear membrane, containing a hydrophilic N-terminal end protruding into the nucleoplasm, eight hydrophobic segments that span the membrane and a short, nucleoplasmic ... -
Leptin and exercise: An update
(2020)Leptin is a multifunctional hormone (adipocytokine) involves in several biological processes. From brain metabolism, to signalling, in sexual development, inflammation, fat metabolism, as an ergogenic aid for sport and in ... -
Mini review: New treatments in psoriatic arthritis. Focus on the IL-23/17 Axis
(2019)Psoriasis, an inflammatory skin disease, and psoriatic arthritis (PsA), an inflammatory arthritis, share clinical, genetic, and pathogenic factors and may be summed as one disease, the psoriatic disease. Interleukin (IL)-17 ... -
Modulation of the ubiquitin-proteasome system by marine natural products
(2021)The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is a key player in the maintenance of cellular protein homeostasis (proteostasis). Since proteasome function declines upon aging leading to the acceleration of its progression and the ... -
A multifunctional RNA recognition motif in poly(A)-specific ribonuclease with cap and poly(A) binding properties
(2007)Poly(A)-specific ribonuclease (PARN) is an oligomeric, processive and cap-interacting 3′ exoribonuclease that efficiently degrades mRNA poly(A) tails. Here we show that the RNA recognition motif (RRM) of PARN harbors both ...
