Noradrenaline enhances Na ‐K ATPase subunit expression by HuR‐induced mRNA stabilization and their transportation to the cell surface through PLC and PKC mediated pathway: Implications with REMS‐loss associated disorders
Rapid eye movement sleep deprivation associated elevated noradrenaline (NA) increases nucleus-to-cytoplasmic translocation of HuR. The latter then decreases degradation of the Na-K ATPase mRNA, resulting in stability of its mRNA, which in turn increased its translation without increasing the transcription. The increased Na-K ATPase subunit are then translocated to the neuronal membrane. Our findings not only explain a fundamental molecular mechanism of Na-K ATPase subunit expression, but it may also be exploited to ameliorate REMS-loss associated symptoms and disorders. AbstractRapid eye movement sleep (REMS) maintains bra...

Genes, Vol. 15, Pages 558: Genetic Mechanisms Driving Uterine Leiomyoma Pathobiology, Epidemiology, and Treatment
Borahay Uterine leiomyomas (ULs) are the most common benign tumor of the uterus. They can be associated with symptoms including abnormal uterine bleeding, pelvic pain, urinary frequency, and pregnancy complications. Despite the high prevalence of UL, its underlying pathophysiology mechanisms have historically been poorly understood. Several mechanisms of pathogenesis have been suggested, implicating various genes, growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, and microRNA aberrations. The purpose of this study is to summarize the current research on the relationship of genetics with UL. Specifically, we performed a literature...

Roles of AhR/CYP1s Signal Pathway Mediated ROS Production in Uremic Cardiomyopathy
CONCLUSION: This study provides evidence that the AhR/CYP1s pathway is activated in UCM rats, and this activation is correlated with the uremic toxin IS. In vitro studies indicate that IS can stimulate the AhR translocation in cardiomyocyte, triggering to the production of intracellular ROS via CYP1s. This process leads to prolonged oxidative stress stimulation and thus contributes to the progression of uremic toxin-mediated cardiomyopathy.PMID:38670245 | DOI:10.1016/j.toxlet.2024.04.005 (Source: Toxicology Letters)

Kahweol Inhibits Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines and Chemokines in Tumor Necrosis Factor- α/Interferon-γ-Stimulated Human Keratinocyte HaCaT Cells
Curr Issues Mol Biol. 2024 Apr 18;46(4):3470-3483. doi: 10.3390/cimb46040218.ABSTRACTAtopic dermatitis (AD), marked by intense itching and eczema-like lesions, is a globally increasing chronic skin inflammation. Kahweol, a diterpene that naturally occurs in coffee beans, boasts anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and anti-cancer properties. This research explores the anti-inflammatory action of kahweol on HaCaT human keratinocytes stimulated by tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ), focusing on key signal transduction pathways. Our results demonstrate that kahweol markedly reduces the production of IL-...

Sclareol protected against intestinal barrier dysfunction ameliorating Crohn's disease-like colitis via Nrf2/NF-B/MLCK signalling
CONCLUSIONS: SCL improved intestinal barrier dysfunction and alleviated CD-like colitis, possibly through modulation of Nrf2/NF-κB/MLCK signalling. In view of SCL's safety profile, there is hope that it will be useful in the clinic.PMID:38669952 | DOI:10.1016/j.intimp.2024.112140 (Source: International Immunopharmacology)

Aflatoxin B < sub > 1 < /sub > -exposed hepatocyte-derived extracellular vesicles: Initiating hepatic stellate cell-mediated liver fibrosis through a p53-Parkin-dependent mitophagy pathway
This study further revealed that the hepatic fibrogenesis of AFB1 exposure was rescued by genetic intervention with siPARK2 or p53's Pifithrin-α (PFTα) inhibitors. Furthermore, AFB1-EVs-induced HSCs activation was relieved by GW4869 pharmaceutic inhibition of EVs secretion. These results revealed a novel mechanism that AFB1 exposure-induced p53-Parkin signal axis regulated mitophagy-dependent hepatocyte-derived EVs to mediate the mitochondria-trafficking intercellular communication between hepatocytes and HSCs in the local hepatotoxic microenvironment to promote the activated HSCs-associated liver fibrogenesis. Our study...
