Association of vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms with response to peginterferon plus ribavirin in Asian patients with chronic hepatitis C
Background/Purpose Recent studies have shown that serum vitamin D deficiency is a negative predictor of response to peginterferon plus ribavirin therapy for Caucasian patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC). Whether vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene...

Autoimmune disease-associated gene expression is reduced by BET-inhibition
Abstract For many autoimmune diseases, the underlying mechanism is still unknown. In order to get more insight into the etiology of autoimmune diseases, we recently published a study were we performed epigenetic profiling and RNA sequencing on...

The cloning of a heat shock protein 90β gene and expression analysis in Botia reevesae after ammonia-N exposure and Aeromonas hydrophila challenge
Abstract The objective of this study was to clone the full-length cDNA of Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) in Botia reevesae and to determine the effects of pathogenic bacterial challenge after acute sublethal ammonia exposure on HSP90β expression. The ...

Identification of Anti-tumor Cells Carrying Natural Killer (NK) Cell Antigens in Patients With Hematological Cancers
Abstract Natural killer (NK) cells, a cytotoxic lymphocyte lineage, are able to kill tumor cells in vitro and in mouse models. However, whether these cells display an anti-tumor activity in cancer patients has not been demonstrated. Here we have...

Decreased antimony uptake and overexpression of genes of thiol metabolism are associated with drug resistance in a canine isolate of Leishmania infantum
Abstract Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by the protozoan parasite Leishmania infantum, is one of the most important zoonotic diseases affecting dogs and humans in the Mediterranean area. The presence of infected dogs as the main reservoir host...

Transient Fcho1/2⋅Eps15/R⋅AP-2 Nanoclusters Prime the AP-2 Clathrin Adaptor for Cargo Binding
Summary Clathrin-coated vesicles form by rapid assembly of discrete coat constituents into a cargo-sorting lattice. How the sequential phases of coat construction are choreographed is unclear, but transient protein-protein interactions mediated by...

Knockout of the PKN Family of Rho Effector Kinases Reveals a Non-redundant Role for PKN2 in Developmental Mesoderm Expansion
Summary In animals, the protein kinase C (PKC) family has expanded into diversely regulated subgroups, including the Rho family-responsive PKN kinases. Here, we describe knockouts of all three mouse PKN isoforms and reveal that PKN2 loss results in...

Mapping the Human Platelet Lipidome Reveals Cytosolic Phospholipase A2 as a Regulator of Mitochondrial Bioenergetics during Activation
Summary Human platelets acutely increase mitochondrial energy generation following stimulation. Herein, a lipidomic circuit was uncovered whereby the substrates for this are exclusively provided by cPLA2, including multiple fatty acids and oxidized...

Tbx3 Controls Dppa3 Levels and Exit from Pluripotency toward Mesoderm
Summary Tbx3, a member of the T-box family, plays important roles in development, stem cells, nuclear reprogramming, and cancer. Loss of Tbx3 induces differentiation in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). However, we show that mESCs exist in an...
