Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) sensing of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the most potent pathogen-associated molecular pattern gram-negative bacteria, activates NF-κB and Irf3, which induces inflammatory cytokines interferons that trigger an intense response, is critical for host defense but can also cause serious pathology, including sepsis. Although TLR4 inhibition attractive therapeutic approach suppressing overexuberant signaling, previously identified antagonists have not shown any clinical...

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a highly aggressive form of brain tumor characterized by dysregulated metabolism. Increased fatty acid oxidation (FAO) protects cells from lipid peroxidation-induced cell death, although the precise mechanisms involved remain unclear. Herein, we report that loss necrosis factor receptor-associated 3 (TRAF3) in GBM critically regulates peroxidation and tumorigenesis controlling polyunsaturated acids (PUFAs). TRAF3 frequently repressed due to promoter hypermethylation....

Protein kinase D (PKD) is a family of novel diacylglycerol/phorbol ester targets that regulate many important cellular functions including cell growth and survival. We now provide experimental evidence to indicate PKD3 contributes prostate cancer Expression as well PKD1 was significantly higher in human tumors compared with normal tissues revealed by immunohistochemistry. Moreover, exhibited marked increase nuclear localization tumor tissues, which correlated grade. Isoforms PKD were...

Although protein kinase D3 (PKD3) has been shown to contribute prostate cancer cell growth and survival, the role of PKD in motility remains unclear. Here, we show that PKD2 PKD3 promote nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) expression/activation, which are crucial for invasion. Silencing endogenous and/or markedly decreased migration invasion, reduced uPA receptor (uPAR) expression increased inhibitor-2 (PAI-2) expression. These results were...

This study investigated the protective properties and mechanisms of D-mannose against hepatic steatosis in experimental alcoholic liver disease (ALD). Drinking-water supplementation significantly attenuated a standard mouse ALD model established by chronic-binge ethanol feeding, especially hepatocyte lipid deposition. function on accumulation hepatocytes was also confirmed using ethanol-treated primary (PMHs) with supplement. Meanwhile, regulated metabolism rescuing ethanol-mediated...

Background The human insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding proteins 1–3 (IGF2BP1–3, also called IMP1–3) play essential roles in regulation, including its splicing, translocation, stability, and translation. However, knowledge regarding the involvement of IGF2BPs tumor immunity stemness across cancer types is still lacking. Methods In this study, we comprehensively analyzed pan-cancer multi-omic data to determine correlation protein expression with various parameters such as mutation...
