Perilipin is the most abundant adipocyte-specific protein that coats lipid droplets, and it required for optimal incorporation release from droplet. We identified two heterozygous frameshift mutations in perilipin gene (PLIN1) three families with partial lipodystrophy, severe dyslipidemia, insulin-resistant diabetes. Subcutaneous fat patients was characterized by smaller-than-normal adipocytes, macrophage infiltration, fibrosis. In contrast to wild-type perilipin, mutant forms of failed...

Mutations that decrease insulin-like growth factor (IGF) and hormone signaling limit body size prolong lifespan in mice. In vertebrates, these somatotropic hormones are controlled by the neuroendocrine brain. Hormone-like regulations discovered nematodes flies suggest IGF signals nervous system can determine lifespan, but it is unknown whether this applies to higher organisms. Using conditional mutagenesis mouse, we show brain receptors (IGF-1R) efficiently regulate development. Partial...

Immune checkpoint (ICK) expression might represent a surrogate measure of tumor-infiltrating T cell (CTL) exhaustion and therefore be more accurate prognostic biomarker for colorectal cancer (CRC) patients than CTL enumeration as measured by the Immunoscore. The ICKs, Th1, CTLs, cytotoxicity-related genes, metagenes, including Immunoscore-like were evaluated in three independent cohorts CRC samples (260 microsatellite instable [MSI], 971 non-MSI). Their associations with patient survival...

BackgroundCrohn's disease (CD) is associated with an increased risk of small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA). However, there are no guidelines for the screening and early diagnosis SBA. Colorectal cancer chronic colitis arises from dysplasia. High-risk patients benefit surveillance colonoscopies aimed to detect The dysplasia–carcinoma sequence remains poorly documented in CD-associated Moreover, molecular data about SBA complicating CD dysplasia very limited. We therefore assessed several key...

Cholinergic neurons were studied by immunohistochemistry with an antiserum against human choline acetyltransferase in the caudate nucleus, putamen, and ventral striatum (including nucleus accumbens) of three patients Alzheimer disease control subjects. Immunoreactive cell bodies mapped counted. In disease, a 60% decrease number cholinergic was observed, whereas putamen values for subjects similar. To determine whether all affected, neuropeptide Y-containing also immunostained, mapped, The...

Some LMNA mutations responsible for insulin-resistant lipodystrophic syndromes are associated with peripheral subcutaneous lipoatrophy and faciocervical fat accumulation. Their pathophysiologic characteristics unknown.

Every colorectal cancer (CRC) patient should be tested for microsatellite instability (MSI, a marker defective DNA mismatch repair) as first screen Lynch syndrome (LS). In this study, we investigated whether it may possible to improve the detection of MSI in CRC. We examined HT17 repeat (critical correct splicing chaperone HSP110) might constitute superior diagnosis phenotype patients with CRC compared standard panel markers (pentaplex).The polymorphism was analysed germline from 1037...

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and VEGF(R) signaling show extensive cross-talk, providing a rationale for joint targeting of the two pathways. However, combinations monoclonal antibodies (mAb) EGFR VEGF showed disappointing activity in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). We speculated that inhibition surface receptors ligands might only partly prevent oncogenic whereas small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) would also influence intracellular signaling.Mice CRC xenografts...
