Drosophila male germline stem cells and their transit amplifying daughters depend on G-protein signaling for increasing their mitotic indices in response to mating
In many metazoan tissues, highly specialized cells are constantly lost and need to be replaced by tissue homeostasis from adult stem cells. When adult stem cells divide by mitosis their daughter cells either become new stem cells, or enter a proliferation and differentiation path. Recent studies in Drosophila males showed that germline stem cells (GSCs) can increase their mitotic activity in response to repeated mating.
Cxcl17 and its association with T cells
We recently published an article describing the importance of CXCL17 in T cell responses [1]. In summary, we observed the following:
1) Cxcl17 is necessary to maintain normal ratios of T cell subpopulations in lymph nodes (LN).
2) Cxcl17-/- mice develop more intense inflammatory responses than wild type mice.
Drought treatment: A new tool for dissecting XA21 signaling in rice
Microbial infection can cause cell damage in both plants and animals, as well as triggering stress responses commonly induced by environmental (abiotic) cues.
Involvement of TGFβ signaling pathway in oxidative stress and diabetic retinopathy
Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of blindness in the U.S. However, not much is known of underlying molecular mechanism and how oxidative stress contributes to its development. In the present study, we investigated the involvement of TGFβ signaling pathway on the effect of oxidative stress on VEGF secretion and viability of retinal cells. VEGF is the hallmark that exacerbates DR progression in prolonged diabetes. Some major concerns that have arisen are the underlying effects of antioxidants in elevating VEGF secretion in diabetes.
DNA hyper methylation editing of T cell receptor signaling and the fellow molecules: a promise strategy of predicting acquired immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) resistance
The promising results of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in tumors have changed the current treatment modality for cancer. ICIs response prediction is urgently needed for the personalized therapy approach. In the recent issue of the Journal of Oncology, Zixin Hu et al. proposed that DNA methylation alternations contribute to tumor microenvironment (TME) reshapement to predict the ICIs response. Notwithstanding the global DNA methylation loss, the repression of T cell receptor signaling and the fellow costimulators by DNA hypermethylation contributed to the cold TME and ICIs resistance.
