The Wnt signaling pathway in development and disease.

TL;DR: The data reveal that multiple extracellular, cytoplasmic, and nuclear regulators intricately modulate Wnt signaling levels, and that receptor-ligand specificity and feedback loops help to determine WNT signaling outputs.

Marine natural products.

TL;DR: This review covers the literature published in 2014 for marine natural products, with 1116 citations referring to compounds isolated from marine microorganisms and phytoplankton, green, brown and red algae, sponges, cnidarians, bryozoans, molluscs, tunicates, echinoderms, mangroves and other intertidal plants and microorganisms.

Maintenance of pluripotency in human and mouse embryonic stem cells through activation of Wnt signaling by a pharmacological GSK-3-specific inhibitor

TL;DR: It is shown that activation of the canonical Wnt pathway is sufficient to maintain self-renewal of both HESCs and MESCs, and the use of GSK-3-specific inhibitors such as BIO may have practical applications in regenerative medicine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of natural products on developing new anti-cancer agents

TL;DR: This work presents a meta-analysis of the “Metagenome” of Cyanophytes and Marine Microbes, which highlights the importance of knowing the carrier and removal status of canine coronavirus, as a source of infection for other animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toll-like receptor—mediated cytokine production is differentially regulated by glycogen synthase kinase 3

TL;DR: It is reported that glycogen synthase kinase 3 differentially regulates TLR-mediated production of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in mice receiving lipopolysaccharide and mediated protection from endotoxin shock.

LIGPLOT: a program to generate schematic diagrams of protein-ligand interactions

TL;DR: The LIGPLOT program automatically generates schematic 2-D representations of protein-ligand complexes from standard Protein Data Bank file input giving a simple and informative representation of the intermolecular interactions and their strengths, including hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic interactions and atom accessibilities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Specificity and mechanism of action of some commonly used protein kinase inhibitors

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the specificities of protein kinase inhibitors cannot be assessed simply by studying their effect on kinases that are closely related in primary structure, and proposes guidelines for the use of protein Kinase inhibitors in cell-based assays.

GSK-3: tricks of the trade for a multi-tasking kinase.

TL;DR: Since increased GSK-3 activity may be linked to pathology in diseases such as Alzheimer's disease and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, several new G SKS-3 inhibitors, such as the aloisines, the paullones and the maleimides, have been developed and hold promise as therapeutic agents.
