Involvement of skeletal muscle gene regulatory network in susceptibility to wound infection following trauma
(2007)Despite recent advances in our understanding the pathophysiology of trauma, the basis of the predisposition of trauma patients to infection remains unclear. A Drosophila melanogaster/Pseudomonas aeruginosa injury and ...

KIF1Bβ transports dendritically localized mRNPs in neurons and is recruited to synapses in an activity-dependent manner
(2013)KIF1Bβ is a kinesin-like, microtubule-based molecular motor protein involved in anterograde axonal vesicular transport in vertebrate and invertebrate neurons. Certain KIF1Bβ isoforms have been implicated in different forms ...

Article
KIF2β, a new kinesin superfamily protein in non-neuronal cells, is associated with lysosomes and may be implicated in their centrifugal translocation
(1998)Lysosomes concentrate juxtanuclearly in the region around the microtubule-organizing center by interaction with microtubules. Different experimental and physiological conditions can induce these organelles to move to the ...

Loss of Nat4 and its associated histone H4 N-terminal acetylation mediates calorie restriction-induced longevity
(2016)Changes in histone modifications are an attractive model through which environmental signals, such as diet, could be integrated in the cell for regulating its lifespan. However, evidence linking dietary interventions with ...

The mouse Foxi3 transcription factor is necessary for the development of posterior placodes
(2016)The inner ear develops from the otic placode, one of the cranial placodes that arise from a region of ectoderm adjacent to the anterior neural plate called the pre-placodal domain. We have identified a Forkhead family ...

New phenotypic aspects of the decidual spiral artery wall during early post-implantation mouse pregnancy
(2011)During pregnancy the walls of decidual spiral arteries (SAs) undergo clinically important structural modifications crucial for embryo survival/growth and maternal health. However, the mechanisms of SA remodeling (SAR) are ...

Pirfenidone normalizes the tumor microenvironment to improve chemotherapy
(2017)Normalization of the tumor microenvironment by selectively targeting components of the tumor extracellular matrix has been recently proposed to have the potential to decompress tumor blood vessels, increase vessel perfusion ...

Article
Reversal of ER-β silencing by chromatin modifying agents overrides acquired tamoxifen resistance
(2013)The purpose of this work is to determine the molecular mechanisms underlying tamoxifen resistance. We show here that ER-β is epigenetically silenced in a cell line with acquired tamoxifen resistance (MCF-7/TAM-R) and this ...

Article
Role of Rb-dependent and Rb-independent functions of papillomavirus E7 oncogene in head and neck cancer
(2007)Infection with high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPV) and in particular the expression of the viral proteins E6 and E7 have been associated with the etiology of a subset of head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC). ...

Samba, a Xenopus hnRNP expressed in neural and neural crest tissues
(2009)RNA binding proteins regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level and play important roles in embryonic development. Here, we report the cloning and expression of Samba, a Xenopus hnRNP that is maternally ...

Article
Stable transfection of an estrogen receptor beta cDNA isoform into MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells
(2003)We previously reported stable transfection of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) into the ER-negative MDA-MB-231 cells (S30) as a tool to examine the mechanism of action of estrogen and antiestrogens [J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 84 ...

Targeting IL13Ralpha2 activates STAT6-TP63 pathway to suppress breast cancer lung metastasis
(2015)Introduction: Basal-like breast cancer (BLBC) is an aggressive subtype often characterized by distant metastasis, poor patient prognosis, and limited treatment options. Therefore, the discovery of alternative targets to ...

Vasodilator-Stimulated Phosphoprotein (VASP) depletion from breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells inhibits tumor spheroid invasion through downregulation of Migfilin, β-catenin and urokinase-plasminogen activator (uPA)
(2017)A hallmark of cancer cells is their ability to invade surrounding tissues and form metastases. Cell-extracellular matrix (ECM)-adhesion proteins are crucial in metastasis, connecting tumor ECM with actin cytoskeleton thus ...

Xenopus laevis nucleotide binding protein 1 (xNubp1) is important for convergent extension movements and controls ciliogenesis via regulation of the actin cytoskeleton
(2013)Nucleotide binding protein 1 (Nubp1) is a highly conserved phosphate loop (P-loop) ATPase involved in diverse processes including iron-sulfur protein assembly, centrosome duplication and lung development. Here, we report ...
