The FAM83 proteins anchor various isoforms of the constitutively active kinase CK1 to specific subcellular locations.
Oxidative stress is linked to many pathological conditions including the loss of dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease. The vast majority disease cases appear be caused by a combination genetic mutations and environmental factors.

The majority of mutations identified in patients with amelogenesis imperfecta have been mapped to FAM83H. As FAM83H expression is not limited the enamel, how contributes still largely unknown. We previously reported that members FAM83 family proteins interact and regulate subcellular distribution promiscuous serine-threonine protein kinase CK1 family, through their shared N-terminal DUF1669 domains. co-localises isoforms speckle-like structures both cytoplasm nucleus. In this report, we show...

Abstract Atopic eczema (AE) is the most common inflammatory dermatosis, affecting up to 20% of children. Loss function mutations in Filaggrin ( FLG ) gene are strongly implicated genetic risk factor for AE, but little known about signalling pathways altered response loss FLG. To explore downstream effects on cellular environment, we combined RNAseq analysis siRNA knockdown normal human keratinocytes and tape strip (TS) samples from AE patients who were clinically phenotyped genotyped...
Abstract Introduction and aims Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic skin condition ranked the 15th highest global burden for all nonfatal diseases. Our lab has found that patients with AD have reduction in gene protein expression of cathepsin H, lysosomal cysteine protease aminopeptidase activity. Ctsh-/- mice reduced integrity epidermal barrier, including filaggrin processing, corneocyte change several proinflammatory mediators interleukin-1α. We aim to elucidate roles H keratinocytes...
Abstract Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a persisting skin condition characterized by recurring eczematous lesions and pruritus. It ranked as nonfatal disease with the fifteenth-highest global burden. The causes of AD are diverse: defective epidermal barrier, inflammation, an altered microbiome genetics. However, much treatment for focuses on reducing inflammation. Further understanding how barrier maintains its integrity may be useful in developing treatments that specifically help to restore...
