MG53 nucleates assembly of cell membrane repair machinery

TL;DR: It is reported that MG53, a muscle-specific tripartite motif family protein (TRIM72), is a component of the sarcolemmal membrane-repair machinery and that MG 53 may initiate the assembly of the membrane repair machinery in an oxidation-dependent manner.
Journal ArticleDOI

Membrane Repair Defects in Muscular Dystrophy Are Linked to Altered Interaction between MG53, Caveolin-3, and Dysferlin

TL;DR: The data reveal that a molecular complex formed by MG53, dysferlin, and Cav3 is essential for repair of muscle membrane damage and also provide a therapeutic target for treatment of muscular and cardiovascular diseases that are linked to compromised membrane repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutations in JPH2-encoded junctophilin-2 associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in humans

TL;DR: The molecular and functional evidence implicates defective junctophilin-2 and disrupted calcium signaling as a novel pathogenic mechanism for HCM and establishes HCM as the first human disease associated with genetic defects in JPH2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exosomes: a new delivery system for tumor antigens in cancer immunotherapy.

TL;DR: The data suggest that exosomes can be engineered from tumor cell lines to deliver a target immunogen capable of inducing an effective immune response and that they may represent a new cell‐free tumor vaccine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parathyroid Hormone Uses Multiple Mechanisms to Arrest the Cell Cycle Progression of Osteoblastic Cells from G1 to S Phase

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that PTH regulates the expression of at least three genes to achieve the following: inducing expression of MAPK phosphatase 1 (MKP-1) and p21Cip1 and decreasing expression of cyclin D1 at both mRNA and protein levels.
