Journal ArticleDOI

p38-dependent phosphorylation of the mRNA decay-promoting factor KSRP controls the stability of select myogenic transcripts.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that p38 alpha and beta isoforms also control muscle-gene expression posttranscriptionally, by stabilizing critical myogenic transcripts, by establishing a biochemical link between differentiation-activated p38 signaling and turnover of myogenic mRNAs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Saturated Fatty Acids Induce c-Src Clustering within Membrane Subdomains, Leading to JNK Activation

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that saturated FA activate JNK and inhibit insulin signaling through c-Src activation, which is more likely to cause insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes than unsaturated FA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunity by ubiquitylation: a reversible process of modification

TL;DR: This Review covers recent progress in the understanding of protein ubiquitylation in the immune system, and the conjugation of ubiquitin-like molecules, such as ISG15, to proteins is also involved in immune regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Signal transduction from cell surface to nucleus in development and disease.

TL;DR: This review discusses the basic outline of the eukaryotic signal transduction systems used to transmit information from the cell surface to the transcriptional machinery in the nucleus.
Journal ArticleDOI

The IkappaB kinase - a bridge between inflammation and cancer.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed that NF-kappaB transcription factors regulated via the IkappaB kinase (IKK) complex play a critical role in coupling inflammation and cancer and set out to test this hypothesis in mouse models of cancer.
