  2021-12-02

  

  uPAR promotes cell-associated proteolysis by binding to uPA which locally converts plasminogen into active plasmin [10]. Ligand-engaged uPAR also acts as a potent regulator of cell migration and matrix attachment. Being a membrane receptor, uPAR needs to interact with extracellular matrix (ECM) prot

  2021-12-02

  

  In mammalian cells, Motins have been identified as a key link between F-actin and Hippo pathway regulation, as knockdown of all three Motins increased Yap activity even in the presence of cytoskeletal disruption [105]. Motins can physically associate with F-actin but this association is blocked by p

  Several studies have also suggested that Wnt signalling can in turn stimulate the transcriptional activity of Yap/Taz (Figure 2, Figure 3). In the Azzolin model, Yap/Taz not only block β-catenin signalling, but their association with Axin1 and/or β-catenin also maintains them in an inactivate state

  To prevent toxicity of free hemoglobin as well as its degradation metabolites heme and free iron, several scavenger proteins and degradation enzymes protect the body. Haptoglobin (Hp) is the most well described hemoglobin scavenging protein that binds free hemoglobin and transports it to macrophages

  In this precancerous condition, though cancer develops from the epithelium, the subepithelial connective tissue also play crucial biological role in pathogenesis and progression to malignancy. In this context it may be noted that some recent reports addressed the problem of the mechanical interactio

  To assess the roles of GPR120 and GPR40 in malignant properties of pancreatic cancer cells, we generated GPR120 and GPR40 knockdown (PANC-sh120 and PANC-sh40, respectively) 3-AP from PANC-1 (Fig. 2A). While no difference of cell growth rate between control PANC-RFP cells and PANC-sh120 cells was ob

  Knowing that our strongest phenotypic differences between the genotypes involved feeding behavior in various contexts, we decided to examine the case of restricted feeding and food anticipatory activity. Animals faced with a restricted schedule of food availability develop a series of anticipatory b

  2021-12-01

  

  Recent studies have elucidated a profound role for FFA4 in modulation of metabolism and energy utilization as well as endocrine and immune function, and as a consequence, have thrust FFA4 to the forefront of drug discovery efforts. For example, activation of FFA4 by fatty long queue or synthetic lig

  Characterization of quantal exocytosis by amperometry A secretory vesicle experiences four phases during exocytosis: (i) cargo packaging & translocation, (ii) vesicle docking & priming; (iii) fusion pore formation; (iv) fusion pore expansion and cargo secretion (Fig. 1a).

  Biliary tract cancers (BTC) are categorized into intrahepatic, perihilar, extrahepatic BTC (or cholangiocarcinoma) as well as gallbladder cancer (GBC). Although the incidence of BTC is low in developed countries (3% of gastrointestinal cancers), BTC is the second most common primary liver tumor afte

  To explore further the functional impact of the similarity of the UTY and KDM6A proteins, the FANTOM5 human dataset was analysed to determine whether or not the genes were expressed at the same time in the same tissues (which would suggest that they are controlled by the same regulators) or with o

  Multiple subsets of Breg cells in mice have been identified that could suppress the T cell-mediated response. However, a lack of consensus surface markers for Breg cells made it difficult to judge whether Breg cells are a special B cell subset or whether all mg115 have an immuno-regulatory function
