Plants produce a wide diversity of compounds. Broadly, these are separated into primary metabolites, which are necessary for ...
Arthritis was induced in mice exposed to high blood levels of homocysteine. Hyper-homocysteinemia arthritic animals develop diastolic dysfunction (the left ventricle does not dilate properly) with ...
TP53 -mutant acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) are characterized by chemotherapy resistance and represent an unmet clinical need. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells ...
Neural stem cells (NSCs) in the mammalian brain decline rapidly with age, leading to impairment of hippocampal memory function in later life. However, the relationship between epigenetic remodeling ...
Cells change their metabolic profiles in response to underlying gene regulatory networks, but how can alterations in metabolism encode specific transcriptional instructions? Here, we show that forcing ...
DNMT3A mutations may also have hitherto unrecognised non-canonical functions in HSCs. TP53 in humans, or Trp53 in mice (generally referred to as p53 throughout this text) is a key tumour suppressor ...
In this study, we provide a detailed molecular analysis of the KMN subunit Kre28 Zwint. We identified a conserved Zwint helix in Kre28 whose lack leads to fatal chromosome segregation defects when ...
The ER membrane protein SELENOT has been previously suggested to be neuroprotective, but its contribution to neuronal pathophysiology has not been thoroughly investigated. This study reports that ...
Correct mitotic spindle alignment is essential for tissue architecture and plays an important role in cell fate specification through asymmetric cell division. Spindle tethering factors such as ...
Corneal diseases can cause severe visual impairment and even blindness, which have been linked to the interruption of corneal epithelial homeostasis. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are ...
Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) is a conserved regulator of cell division. During mitotic prophase, PLK1 contributes to the activation of the cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1). However, the exact functions ...
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of the eukaryotic cell is the major site of lipid and membrane protein synthesis, and it acts as a hub for intracellular communication. This organelle extends from the ...
