TL;DR: Different types of skeletal muscle atrophy share a common transcriptional program that is activated in many systemic diseases including diabetes, cancer, and renal failure, according to cDNA microarrays.
Abstract: Skeletal muscle atrophy is a debilitating response to starvation and many systemic diseases including diabetes, cancer, and renal failure. We had proposed that a common set of transcriptional adaptations underlie the loss of muscle mass in these different states. To test this hypothesis, we used cDNA microarrays to compare the changes in content of specific mRNAs in muscles atrophying from different causes. We compared muscles from fasted mice, from rats with cancer cachexia, streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus, uremia induced by subtotal nephrectomy, and from pair-fed control rats. Although the content of >90% of mRNAs did not change, including those for the myofibrillar apparatus, we found a common set of genes (termed atrogins) that were induced or suppressed in muscles in these four catabolic states. Among the strongly induced genes were many involved in protein degradation, including polyubiquitins, Ub fusion proteins, the Ub ligases atrogin-1/MAFbx and MuRF-1, multiple but not all subunits of the 20S proteasome and its 19S regulator, and cathepsin L. Many genes required for ATP production and late steps in glycolysis were down-regulated, as were many transcripts for extracellular matrix proteins. Some genes not previously implicated in muscle atrophy were dramatically up-regulated (lipin, metallothionein, AMP deaminase, RNA helicase-related protein, TG interacting factor) and several growth-related mRNAs were down-regulated (P311, JUN, IGF-1-BP5). Thus, different types of muscle atrophy share a common transcriptional program that is activated in many systemic diseases.

TL;DR: The cloning of mox1 is described, which encodes a homologue of the catalytic subunit of the superoxide-generating NADPH oxidase of phagocytes, gp91phox, which is expressed in colon, prostate, uterus and vascular smooth muscle, but not in peripheral blood leukocytes.
Abstract: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated in some non-phagocytic cells are implicated in mitogenic signalling and cancer. Many cancer cells show increased production of ROS, and normal cells exposed to hydrogen peroxide or superoxide show increased proliferation and express growth-related genes. ROS are generated in response to growth factors, and may affect cell growth, for example in vascular smooth-muscle cells. Increased ROS in Ras-transformed fibroblasts correlates with increased mitogenic rate. Here we describe the cloning of mox1, which encodes a homologue of the catalytic subunit of the superoxide-generating NADPH oxidase of phagocytes, gp91phox. mox1 messenger RNA is expressed in colon, prostate, uterus and vascular smooth muscle, but not in peripheral blood leukocytes. In smooth-muscle cells, platelet-derived growth factor induces mox1 mRNA production, while antisense mox1 mRNA decreases superoxide generation and serum-stimulated growth. Overexpression of mox1 in NIH3T3 cells increases superoxide generation and cell growth. Cells expressing mox1 have a transformed appearance, show anchorage-independent growth and produce tumours in athymic mice. These data link ROS production by Mox1 to growth control in non-phagocytic cells.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied aggregate market spreads, depths, and trading activity for U.S. equities over an extended time sample and found that daily changes in market averages of liquidity and trading activities are highly volatile and negatively serially dependent.
Abstract: Previous studies of liquidity span short time periods and focus on the individual security. In contrast, we study aggregate market spreads, depths, and trading activity for U.S. equities over an extended time sample. Daily changes in market averages of liquidity and trading activity are highly volatile and negatively serially dependent. Liquidity plummets significantly in down markets. Recent market volatility induces a decrease in trading activity and spreads. There are strong dayof-the-week effects; Fridays accompany a significant decrease in trading activity and liquidity, while Tuesdays display the opposite pattern. Long- and short-term interest rates inf luence liquidity. Depth and trading activity increase just prior to major macroeconomic announcements. LIQUIDITY AND TRADING ACTIVITY are important features of financial markets, yet little is known about their evolution over time or about their time-series determinants. Their fundamental importance is exemplified by the inf luence of trading costs on required returns ~Amihud and Mendelson ~1986!, and Jacoby, Fowler, and Gottesman ~2000!! which implies a direct link between liquidity and corporate costs of capital. More generally, exchange organization, regulation, and investment management could all be improved by knowledge of factors that inf luence liquidity and trading activity. A better understanding of these determinants should increase investor confidence in financial markets and thereby enhance the efficacy of corporate resource allocation. Notwithstanding the importance of research about liquidity, existing studies of trading costs have all been performed over short time spans of a year or less. In addition, these studies have usually focused on the liquidity of individual securities. This is probably due to the tedious task of handling voluminous intraday data and, until recently, the paucity of intraday data going back more than a few years. Thus, virtually nothing is known about
