Genetic and pharmacological inhibition of JNK ameliorates hypoxia-induced retinopathy through interference with VEGF expression

TL;DR: It is shown that mice lacking c-Jun N-terminal kinase 1 (JNK1) exhibit reduced pathological angiogenesis and lower levels of retinal VEGF production in a murine model of ROP, and that JNK1 represents a new pharmacological target for treatment of diseases where excessive neoangiogenesis is the underlying pathology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sestrins at the crossroad between stress and aging.

TL;DR: It is suggested that Sestrins provide critical feedback regulation that adjust metabolic and stress responses to different environmental cues and evolutionary constraints.
Journal ArticleDOI

Implications of anti-cytokine therapy in colorectal cancer and autoimmune diseases

TL;DR: Findings suggest that such cytokines or the cells that produce them may provide new therapeutic or preventive targets in forms of colorectal cancer that are linked to inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

NRF2 activates growth factor genes and downstream AKT signaling to induce mouse and human hepatomegaly.

TL;DR: NRF2, a transcription factor readily activated by xenobiotics, oxidative stress and autophagy disruptors, may be a common mediator of hepatomegaly; its effects on hepatic metabolism can be reversed by AKT and tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
