Activation and Cellular Localization of the Cyclosporine A-sensitive Transcription Factor NF-AT in Skeletal Muscle Cells

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that skeletal muscle cells express functionally active NF-AT proteins and that the nuclear translocation of individual NF- AT isoforms, which is essential for the ability to coordinate gene expression, is influenced markedly by the differentiation state of the muscle cell.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common signaling pathways link activation of murine PAR-1, LPA, and S1P receptors to proliferation of astrocytes.

TL;DR: Examination of the expression and activation of protease activated receptors (PARs), lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptors, and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors on murine astrocytes shows that activation of these three receptor classes can lead to astrogliosis in vivo and proliferation of astroCytes in vitro.
Journal Article

Angiotensin II down-regulates the vascular smooth muscle AT1 receptor by transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms: evidence for homologous and heterologous regulation.

TL;DR: Results indicate that ANG II down-regulates its vascular receptor by both transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms, which may participate in the coordinated physiological adaptation of vascular tone to vasoactive hormones.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overexpressed human mitochondrial thioredoxin confers resistance to oxidant-induced apoptosis in human osteosarcoma cells.

TL;DR: Human mtTrx is a member of the thioredoxin family of proteins localized to mitochondria and may play important roles in protection against oxidant-induced apoptosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell‐Type‐Dependent Up‐Regulation of In Vitro Mineralization After Overexpression of the Osteoblast‐Specific Transcription Factor Runx2/Cbfa1

TL;DR: The results suggest that, although functional Runx2 is essential to multiple osteoblast‐specific activities, in vitro matrix mineralization requires additional tissue‐specific cofactors, which supplement Runx1 activity.
