Runx2/DICER/miRNA Pathway in Regulating Osteogenesis
In conclusion, our results suggest that DICER is specifically regulated by osteogenic master gene Runx2 that binds to the DICER promoter. Consequently, DICER cleaves precursors of miR‐335‐5p and miR‐17‐92 cluster to form mature miRNAs, which target and decrease the Dickkopf‐related protein 1 (DKK1) and proapoptotic factor BIM levels, respectively, leading to an enhanced Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway. These intriguing results reveal a central mechanism underlying lineage‐specific regulation by a Runx2/DICER/miRNAs cascade during osteogenic differentiation and bone development. Our study also suggests a pote...

The Androgen Receptor Regulates PPAR γ Expression and Activity in Human Prostate Cancer Cells
The peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) is a ligand‐activated transcription factor that regulates growth and differentiation within normal prostate and prostate cancers. However the factors that control PPARγ within the prostate cancers have not been characterized. The goal of this study was to examine whether the androgen receptor (AR) regulates PPARγ expression and function within human prostate cancer cells. qRT‐PCR and Western blot analyses revealed nanomolar concentrations of the AR agonist dihydrotestosterone (DHT) decrease PPARγ mRNA and protein within the castration‐resistant, AR‐po...

CD44 Influences Fibroblast Behaviors Via Modulation of Cell–Cell and Cell–Matrix Interactions, Affecting Survivin and Hippo Pathways
CD44 has been studied in a wide variety of cell types, in a diverse array of cell behaviors and in a diverse range of signaling pathways. We now document a role for CD44 in mediating fibroblast behaviors via regulation of N‐cadherin, extracellular matrix expression, Survivin and the Hippo pathway. Here, we report our findings on the roles of CD44 in modulating proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion of murine wild‐type (WT‐FB) and CD44 knockout dermal fibroblasts (CD44KO‐FB). As we have documented in microvascular endothelial cells lacking CD44, we found persistent increased proliferation, reduced activati...

S100A8, An Oocyte‐Specific Chemokine, Directs the Migration of Ovarian Somatic Cells During Mouse Primordial Follicle Assembly
This study was performed to address this issue. Firstly, in an in vitro reconstruction system, dispersed ovarian cells from murine fetal ovaries at 19.0 days post coitum (dpc) reassembled into follicle‐like structures, independent of the physical distance between the cells, implying that either oocytes or ovarian somatic cells (OSCs) were motile. We then carried out a series of transwell assay experiments, and determined that it was in fact 19.0 dpc OSCs (as opposed to oocytes), which exhibited a significant chemotactic response to both fetal bovine serum and oocytes themselves. We observed that S100A8, a multi‐funct...

TGF‐β Suppresses Ift88 Expression in Chondrocytic ATDC5 Cells
Ift88 is an intraflagella transport protein, critical for the cilium, and has been shown to be required for the maintenance of chondrocytes and cartilage. However, how Ift88 is controlled by cytokines that play a role in osteoarthritis is not well understood. Therefore, we examined the effects of TGF‐β on the expression of Ift88. We used ATDC5 cells as chondrocytes and analyzed the effects of TGF‐β on gene expression. TGF‐β treatment suppresses the levels of Ift88 mRNA in a dose‐dependent manner starting from as low as 0.5 ng/mL and reaching the nadir at around 2 ng/mL. TGF‐β treatment also suppresses the...

Potential Role of Glycogen Synthase Kinase‐3β in Regulation of Myocardin Activity in Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
This study therefore aimed to examine whether and how inhibition of GSK‐3β regulates myocardin activity in human vascular SMCs. Treatment of SMCs with the GSK‐3β inhibitors AR‐A014418 and TWS 119 significantly reduced endogenous myocardin activity, as indicated by lower expression of myocardin target genes (and gene products), CNN1 (calponin), TAGLN1 (SM22) and ACTA2 (SM α‐actin). In human SMCs overexpressing myocardin through the T‐REx system, treatment with either GSK‐3β inhibitor also inhibited the expression of CNN1, TAGLN1 and ACTA2. These effects of GSK‐3β inhibitors were mimicked by transfection w...
