Abstract The dynamic regulations of ubiquitination and deubiquitination play important roles in TGF-β–activated kinase 1 (TAK1)-mediated NF-κB activation, which regulates various physiological pathological events. We identified ubiquitin-specific protease (USP)19 as a negative regulator TNF-α– IL-1β–triggered activation by deubiquitinating TAK1. Overexpression USP19 but not its enzymatic inactive mutant inhibited transcription downstream genes, whereas deficiency had the opposite effects....

Background: Cancer cells undergoing invasion and metastasis possess a phenotype with attenuated glycolysis, but enhanced fatty acid oxidation (FAO). Calcium (Ca2+)-mediated signaling pathways are implicated in tumor metabolism regulation.
