Notch signaling in the pancreas: patterning and cell fate specification

TL;DR: Notch appears to play a role in early organ development, then during organ domain patterning, and only during a final refinement process, in the control of terminal cell fates in the pancreas.

Drosophila as a Model for Context‐Dependent Tumorigenesis

TL;DR: This work reviews the organs and tissues that have been used to model tumor formation, and proposes new strategies to maximize the potential of Drosophila in cancer research.

The in vitro and in vivo effects of yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) extract on adipogenesis

TL;DR: It was demonstrated that yerba mate and its bioactive compounds regulate the expression of genes related to in vitro adipogenesis and might regulate adipogenesis through the Wnt pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

The ubiquitin-specific protease 12 (USP12) is a negative regulator of notch signaling acting on notch receptor trafficking toward degradation.

TL;DR: USP12 silencing specifically interrupts Notch trafficking to the lysosomes and, as a consequence, leads to an increased amount of receptor at the cell surface and to a higher Notch activity, characterize a new level of conserved regulation of Notch signaling by the ubiquitin system.

Influence of Dll4 via HIF-1α-VEGF Signaling on the Angiogenesis of Choroidal Neovascularization under Hypoxic Conditions

TL;DR: It is found that the Dll4 was involved in hypoxia signaling in CNV angiogenesis, which appears to be regulated by HIF-1α and VEGF during the progression of CNV under hypoxic conditions.

Notch signalling: a simple pathway becomes complex

TL;DR: Although the intracellular transduction of the Notch signal is remarkably simple, with no secondary messengers, this pathway functions in an enormous diversity of developmental processes and its dysfunction is implicated in many cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Notch-1 signalling requires ligand-induced proteolytic release of intracellular domain.

TL;DR: It is shown that signalling by a constitutively active membrane-bound Notch-1 protein requires the proteolytic release of the Notch intracellular domain (NICD), which interacts preferentially with CSL.

Notch/gamma-secretase inhibition turns proliferative cells in intestinal crypts and adenomas into goblet cells.

TL;DR: This work shows a rapid, massive conversion of proliferative crypt cells into post-mitotic goblet cells after conditional removal of the common Notch pathway transcription factor CSL/RBP-J and indicates that γ-secretase inhibitors, developed for Alzheimer's disease, might be of therapeutic benefit in colorectal neoplastic disease.
