Potassium ion channels are emerging as promalignant factors involved in cancer progression. In this study, we found that invading human gastric cells express high levels of inwardly rectifying potassium channel 2.1 (Kir2.1). Silencing Kir2.1 markedly reduced the invasive and metastatic capabilities well epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) cells. The nature was independent permeation but relied on its interaction with serine/threonine-protein kinase 38 (Stk38) to inhibit ubiquitination...

Abstract Ligands for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), such as 15-deoxy-Δ12,14PGJ2 (15d-PGJ2) have been proposed a new class of antiinflammatory compounds with possible clinical applications. As there is some controversy over the inhibitory effects 15d-PGJ2 on chemokine gene expression, we investigated whether itself affected expression in human monocytes/macrophages and two monocytic cell lines. Here demonstrate that can induce IL-8 expression. In contrast, monocyte...

Abstract Macrophage CSF (M-CSF) regulates monocyte differentiation, activation, and foam cell formation. We have observed that it is elevated in human pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) the GM-CSF knockout mouse, a murine model for PAP. A potential regulator of M-CSF, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ), severely deficient both PAP mouse. To investigate role PPARγ macrophage homeostasis, we generated myeloid-specific mice using Lys-Cre method to knock out floxed gene....

Programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) is a newly identified tumor suppressor that can inhibit activator protein (AP)-1 activation and translation. Our previous studies indicate lost or reduced PDCD4 expression associated with the progression of ovarian carcinoma. However, direct evidence inhibits malignant phenotype human cancer cells limited. In present study, we found in lines (SKOV3, 3AO, CAOV3) inhibited significantly their proliferation cycle progression, induced apoptosis. More importantly,...

IL-12 is a dimeric cytokine that produced primarily by APCs. In this study we examined the role p38 MAPKs (MAPK/p38) play in regulating production. We show inhibition of dramatically increased production upon stimulation, while decreasing TNF-α. This reciprocal effect on these two cytokines following MAPK/p38 occurred many different APCs, variety stimuli. was also macrophages treated with small interfering RNA to limit p38α expression, and deficient MKK3, kinase upstream p38. The increase...

Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) is a serine/threonine kinase, whose activity inhibited by AKT phosphorylation. This inhibitory phosphorylation of GSK3β can in turn play regulatory role through several proteins (such as mTOR, elF2B) to promote protein synthesis. mTOR key regulator synthesis and cell proliferation, recent studies have shown that both mTORC1 regulate SREBP1 fat Thus far, however, the cross talk between pathway regulation milk associated proliferation not well understood. In...

Abstract DNA methylation plays important roles in regulating many physiological behaviors; however, few studies were focused on the changes of during oocyte aging. Early showed that some imprinted genes’ had been changed aged mouse oocytes. In this study, we used porcine oocytes to test hypothesis aging would alter pattern genes and disturb their expression age oocytes, which affected developmental potential We compared several different types found Neuronatin ( NNAT ) disturbed...

Pig cloning by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) frequently undergoes incomplete epigenetic remodeling during the maternal-to-zygotic transition, which leads to a significant embryonic loss before implantation. Here, we generated first genome-wide landscapes of histone methylation in pig SCNT embryos. Excessive H3K9me3 and H3K27me3, but not H3K4me3, were observed genomic regions with unfaithful genome activation donor-cell-specific gene silencing. A combination H3K9 demethylase KDM4A...
