c-fos Controls the “Private Pathway” of Light-Induced Apoptosis of Retinal Photoreceptors

TL;DR: Hafezi et al. as discussed by the authors showed that light-exposed c-fos+/- mice showed increased activity of the transcription factor activator protein-1 (AP-1) in retinas, indicating an acute contribution of AP-1 to apoptosis induction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nicotinic regulation of c-fos and osteopontin expression in human-derived osteoblast-like cells and human trabecular bone organ culture.

TL;DR: It is suggested that nicotine has a direct effect on human bone cells in modulating proliferation, upregulation of the c-fos transcription factor, and the synthesis of the bone matrix protein, osteopontin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired CD28-mediated Interleukin 2 Production and Proliferation in Stress Kinase SAPK/ERK1 Kinase (SEK1)/Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase Kinase 4 (MKK4)-deficient T Lymphocytes

TL;DR: The results show that signaling pathways for SAPK activation are developmentally regulated in T cells, and provide the first genetic evidence that SEK1 is an important effector molecule that relays CD28 signaling to IL-2 production and T cell proliferation.

Inhibition of xanthine oxidase by catechins from tea (Camellia sinensis)

TL;DR: Tea catechins may act at an earlier stage than has previously been suspected, by inhibiting ROS production, rather than only neutralizing the already formed ROS, which suggests a new mechanism whereby tea drinking may prevent oxidative stress related diseases, e.g. atherosclerosis and cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of oxidative stress in intermittent hypoxia‐induced immediate early gene activation in rat PC12 cells

TL;DR: IH‐induced c‐fos‐mediated transcriptional activation involves oxidative stress, and the involvement of the mitochondrial electron transport chain in the generation of superoxide anions during IH is suggested.

Cleavage of Structural Proteins during the Assembly of the Head of Bacteriophage T4

TL;DR: Using an improved method of gel electrophoresis, many hitherto unknown proteins have been found in bacteriophage T4 and some of these have been identified with specific gene products.

Cleavage of structural proteins during the assemble of the head of bacterio-phage T4

U. K. Laemmli
- 01 Jan 1970 - 
TL;DR: Using an improved method of gel electrophoresis, many hitherto unknown proteins have been found in bacteriophage T4 and some of these have been identified with specific gene products as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

The steroid and thyroid hormone receptor superfamily

TL;DR: A superfamily of regulatory proteins that include receptors for thyroid hormone and the vertebrate morphogen retinoic acid is identified, suggesting mechanisms underlying morphogenesis and homeostasis may be more ubiquitous than previously expected.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of protein kinase C in cell surface signal transduction and tumour promotion

TL;DR: Protein kinase C probably serves as a receptor for the tumour promoters and further exploration of the roles of this enzyme may provide clues for understanding the mechanism of cell growth and differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The molecular heterogeneity of protein kinase C and its implications for cellular regulation

TL;DR: Protein kinase C is now known to be a large family of proteins, with multiple subspecies that have subtle individual enzymological characteristics, and probably have distinct functions in the processing and modulation of a variety of physiological and pathological responses to external signals.
