Cell signaling by pathogenic minerals may initiate the transactivation of genes that are critical to carcinogenesis and fibroproliferative diseases of the lung and pleura. We have shown previously that stimulation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade by asbestos...

Tampering with springs: phosphorylation of titin affecting the mechanical function of cardiomyocytes.

Hepatol Res. 2017 Aug;47(9):941-952. doi: 10.1111/hepr.12823. Epub 2016 Oct 31.

Fetal hepatic stem/progenitor cells, called hepatoblasts, play central roles in liver organogenesis; however, molecular mechanisms regulating proliferation and terminal differentiation of such cells have not been completely elucidated. Bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4) is essential for the development of stem...
