Open AccessE3 ubiquitin ligase UBR5 promotes gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic cancer by inducing O-GlcNAcylation-mediated EMT via destabilization of OGA
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is among the deadliest malignancies, with an extremely poor diagnosis and prognosis. Gemcitabine (GEM) remains the first-line drug for treating PC; however, only a small percentage of pa...

Open AccessInter- and trans-generational impacts of real-world PM2.5 exposure on male-specific primary hypogonadism
Exposure to PM2.5, a harmful type of air pollution, has been associated with compromised male reproductive health; however, it remains unclear whether such exposure can elicit transgenerational effects on male fe...

Open AccessAdvanced oxidation protein products attenuate the autophagy-lysosome pathway in ovarian granulosa cells by modulating the ROS-dependent mTOR-TFEB pathway
Oxidative stress dysfunction has recently been found to be involved in the pathogenesis of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI). Previously, we found that advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) in plasma...

Open AccessHepatocyte DDX3X protects against drug-induced acute liver injury via controlling stress granule formation and oxidative stress
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is the leading cause of acute liver failure (ALF). Continuous and prolonged hepatic cellular oxidative stress and liver inflammatory stimuli are key signatures of DILI. DEAD-bo...

Open AccessAldehyde dehydrogenase 2 alleviates mitochondrial dysfunction by promoting PGC-1α-mediated biogenesis in acute kidney injury
Renal tubular epithelial cells are one of the high energy-consuming cell types, which mainly depend on mitochondrial energy supply. Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is a key enzyme that is involved in alcohol ...

Open AccessAldehyde dehydrogenase 3B2 promotes the proliferation and invasion of cholangiocarcinoma by increasing Integrin Beta 1 expression
Aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) play an essential role in regulating malignant tumor progression; however, their role in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) has not been elucidated. We analyzed the expression of ALDHs in...

Open AccessHigh glucose suppresses autophagy through the AMPK pathway while it induces autophagy via oxidative stress in chondrocytes
Diabetes (DB) is a risk factor for osteoarthritis progression. High glucose (HG) is one of the key pathological features of DB and has been demonstrated to induce apoptosis and senescence in chondrocytes. Auto...

Open AccessB7-H3 suppresses doxorubicin-induced senescence-like growth arrest in colorectal cancer through the AKT/TM4SF1/SIRT1 pathway
Emerging evidence suggests that cellular senescence induced by chemotherapy has been recognized as a new weapon for cancer therapy. This study aimed to research novel functions of B7-H3 in cellular senescence ...

Open AccessA Zic2/Runx2/NOLC1 signaling axis mediates tumor growth and metastasis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is one of the most common malignancies with rapid growth and high metastasis, but lacks effective therapeutic targets. Here, using public sequencing data analyses, quant...

Open AccessSP1-induced long non-coding RNA SNHG6 facilitates the carcinogenesis of chondrosarcoma through inhibiting KLF6 by recruiting EZH2
Small nucleolar RNA host gene 6 (SNHG6) is a newly discovered long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), while the regulatory mechanism of SNHG6 in chondrosarcoma is largely unknown. Here we found that SNHG6 expression was...

Open AccessIsoliquiritigenin prevents hyperglycemia-induced renal injuries by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress via SIRT1-dependent mechanism
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) as a global health concern is closely related to inflammation and oxidation. Isoliquiritigenin (ISL), a natural flavonoid compound, has been demonstrated to inhibit inflammation in ma...

Open AccessVagus nerve stimulation optimized cardiomyocyte phenotype, sarcomere organization and energy metabolism in infarcted heart through FoxO3A-VEGF signaling
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) restores autonomic balance, suppresses inflammation action and minimizes cardiomyocyte injury. However, little knowledge is known about the VNS’ role in cardiomyocyte phenotype, s...

Open AccessB7-H3 promotes colorectal cancer angiogenesis through activating the NF-κB pathway to induce VEGFA expression
Tumor angiogenesis is a hallmark of cancer and is involved in the tumorigenesis of solid tumors. B7-H3, an immune checkpoint molecule, plays critical roles in proliferation, metastasis and tumorigenesis in div...

Open AccessDedifferentiation process driven by radiotherapy-induced HMGB1/TLR2/YAP/HIF-1α signaling enhances pancreatic cancer stemness
Differentiated cancer cells reacquiring stem cell traits following radiotherapy may enrich cancer stem cells and accelerate tumor recurrence and metastasis. We are interested in the mechanistic role of dying c...

Open AccessMicroglial TREM-1 receptor mediates neuroinflammatory injury via interaction with SYK in experimental ischemic stroke
Neuroinflammation is initiated in response to ischemic stroke, generally with the hallmarks of microglial activation and collateral brain injury contributed by robust inflammatory effects. Triggering receptor ...

Open AccessIL-37 isoform D downregulates pro-inflammatory cytokines expression in a Smad3-dependent manner
IL-37 is a new member of IL-1 family and possesses five different isoforms (named as IL-37 a–e). IL-37b has been demonstrated as a physiological suppressor of immune responses. However, the function of other i...

Open AccessTargeting heat-shock protein 90 with ganetespib for molecularly targeted therapy of gastric cancer
Gastric cancer (GC) remains the fifth most common cancer worldwide. Heat-shock protein 90 (HSP90) has become an attractive therapeutic target in treating cancers, because of its abnormally high expression in c...
