The Small Intestine Converts Dietary Fructose into Glucose and Organic Acids
Cholsoon Jang,Sheng Hui,Wenyun Lu,Alexis J. Cowan,Raphael J. Morscher,Gina Lee,Wei Liu,Gregory J. Tesz,Morris J. Birnbaum,Joshua D. Rabinowitz +9 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that the small intestine shields the liver from otherwise toxic fructose exposure, finding that dietary fructose is cleared by theSmall intestine, both by prior exposure to fructose and by feeding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conserved MicroRNA miR-8/miR-200 and Its Target USH/FOG2 Control Growth by Regulating PI3K
Seogang Hyun,Jung Hyun Lee,Hua Jin,Jin Wu Nam,Bumjin Namkoong,Gina Lee,Jongkyeong Chung,V. Narry Kim +7 more
TL;DR: Fat body-specific expression and clonal analyses reveal that miR-8 activates PI3K, thereby promoting fat cell growth cell-autonomously and enhancing organismal growth non-cell-autonomyously and suggests their roles in adolescent growth, aging, and cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Smoking and lung cancer: the role of inflammation.
Tonya C. Walser,Xiaoyan Cui,Jane Yanagawa,Jay M. Lee,Eileen L. Heinrich,Gina Lee,Sherven Sharma,Steven M. Dubinett +7 more
TL;DR: The pulmonary environment presents a unique milieu in which lung carcinogenesis proceeds in complicity with the host cellular network, and full definition of these pathways will afford the opportunity to intervene in specific inflammatory events mediating lung tumorigenesis and resistance to therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
The mTORC1/S6K1 Pathway Regulates Glutamine Metabolism through the eIF4B-Dependent Control of c-Myc Translation
Alfredo Csibi,Gina Lee,Sang-Oh Yoon,Haoxuan Tong,Didem Ilter,Didem Ilter,Ilaria Elia,Sarah-Maria Fendt,Thomas M. Roberts,John Blenis,John Blenis +10 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that mTORC1 positively regulates GLS and glutamine flux through this enzyme, and that the pharmacological inhibition of GLS is a promising target in pancreatic cancers expressing low levels of PTEN.
Journal ArticleDOI
The PINK1–Parkin pathway is involved in the regulation of mitochondrial remodeling process
TL;DR: In this article, the PINK1-Parkin pathway was investigated in Drosophila, and it was shown that the Parkinson's disease (PD) genes, PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) and parkin, are linked in a common pathway which affects mitochondrial integrity and function.
