Mechanisms involved in curcumin-induced human neutrophil apoptosis: Evidence that curcumin activates the endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced cell apoptosis pathway.

SAGE open medicine

Antoine F, Girard D.
PMID: 26770672
SAGE Open Med. 2013 Jun 18;1:2050312113488104. doi: 10.1177/2050312113488104. eCollection 2013.

Curcumin was previously reported to accelerate neutrophil apoptosis, but the mechanism is unclear. Herein, we confirmed that curcumin induces human neutrophil apoptosis as assessed by cytology and by increase in the cell surface expression of annexin-V and CD16 shedding....

Activation of 5-HT7 receptor stimulates neurite elongation through mTOR, Cdc42 and actin filaments dynamics.

Frontiers in behavioral neuroscience

Speranza L, Giuliano T, Volpicelli F, De Stefano ME, Lombardi L, Chambery A, Lacivita E, Leopoldo M, Bellenchi GC, di Porzio U, Crispino M, Perrone-Capano C.
PMID: 25814944
Front Behav Neurosci. 2015 Mar 11;9:62. doi: 10.3389/fnbeh.2015.00062. eCollection 2015.

Recent studies have indicated that the serotonin receptor subtype 7 (5-HT7R) plays a crucial role in shaping neuronal morphology during embryonic and early postnatal life. Here we show that pharmacological stimulation of 5-HT7R using a highly selective agonist, LP-211,...

The Emerging Role of the Cytoskeleton in Chromosome Dynamics.

Frontiers in genetics

Spichal M, Fabre E.
PMID: 28580009
Front Genet. 2017 May 19;8:60. doi: 10.3389/fgene.2017.00060. eCollection 2017.

Chromosomes underlie a dynamic organization that fulfills functional roles in processes like transcription, DNA repair, nuclear envelope stability, and cell division. Chromosome dynamics depend on chromosome structure and cannot freely diffuse. Furthermore, chromosomes interact closely with their surrounding nuclear...

The effect of microbial challenge on the intestinal proteome of broiler chickens.

Proteome science

O'Reilly EL, Burchmore RJ, Sparks NH, Eckersall PD.
PMID: 28572745
Proteome Sci. 2017 May 30;15:10. doi: 10.1186/s12953-017-0118-0. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: In poultry production intestinal health and function is paramount to achieving efficient feed utilisation and growth. Uncovering the localised molecular mechanisms that occur during the early and important periods of growth that allow birds to grow optimally is...

Effect of Rapid Chilling on Beef Quality and Cytoskeletal Protein Degradation in M. longissimus of Chinese Yellow Crossbred Bulls.

Asian-Australasian journal of animal sciences

Mao Y, Zhang Y, Liang R, Ren L, Zhu H, Li K, Zhu L, Luo X.
PMID: 25049681
Asian-Australas J Anim Sci. 2012 Aug;25(8):1197-204. doi: 10.5713/ajas.2012.12055.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of rapid chilling (RC) on beef quality and the degradation of cytoskeletal proteins. Twenty Chinese Yellow crossbred bulls were selected and randomly divided into two groups. RC and conventional...

Molecular phylogeny of sequenced saccharomycetes reveals polyphyly of the alternative yeast codon usage.

Genome biology and evolution

Mühlhausen S, Kollmar M.
PMID: 25053656
Genome Biol Evol. 2014 Jul 22;6(5). doi: 10.1093/gbe/evu093. Epub 2014 Jul 22.

The universal genetic code defines the translation of nucleotide triplets, called codons, into amino acids. In many Saccharomycetes a unique alteration of this code affects the translation of the CUG codon, which is normally translated as leucine. Most of...

Evaluating Inhibition of the Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)-Induced Response of Mutant MCF10A Cells with an Acoustic Sensor.

Biosensors

Garcia MP, Shahid A, Chen JY, Xi J.
PMID: 25586035
Biosensors (Basel). 2012 Nov 13;2(4):448-64. doi: 10.3390/bios2040448.

Many cancer treatments rely on inhibition of epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced cellular responses. Evaluating drug effects on such responses becomes critical to the development of new cancer therapeutics. In this report, we have employed a label-free acoustic sensor, the...

Stepping Out of the Shade: Control of Neuronal Activity by the Scaffold Protein Kidins220/ARMS.

Frontiers in cellular neuroscience

Scholz-Starke J, Cesca F.
PMID: 27013979
Front Cell Neurosci. 2016 Mar 14;10:68. doi: 10.3389/fncel.2016.00068. eCollection 2016.

The correct functioning of the nervous system depends on the exquisitely fine control of neuronal excitability and synaptic plasticity, which relies on an intricate network of protein-protein interactions and signaling that shapes neuronal homeostasis during development and in adulthood....

Bacterial cell wall biogenesis is mediated by SEDS and PBP polymerase families functioning semi-autonomously.

Nature microbiology

Cho H, Wivagg CN, Kapoor M, Barry Z, Rohs PDA, Suh H, Marto JA, Garner EC, Bernhardt TG.
PMID: 27643381
Nat Microbiol. 2016 Sep 19;1:16172. doi: 10.1038/nmicrobiol.2016.172.

Multi-protein complexes organized by cytoskeletal proteins are essential for cell wall biogenesis in most bacteria. Current models of the wall assembly mechanism assume that class A penicillin-binding proteins (aPBPs), the targets of penicillin-like drugs, function as the primary cell...
