Open Accessp21-activated kinase 4 controls the aggregation of α-synuclein by reducing the monomeric and aggregated forms of α-synuclein: involvement of the E3 ubiquitin ligase NEDD4-1
Aggregation of misfolded alpha-synuclein (α-synuclein) is a central player in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, the regulatory mechanism underlying α-synuclein aggregation has been int...

Withaferin A mitigates metastatic traits in human oral squamous cell carcinoma caused by aberrant claudin-1 expression
Abnormal expression of claudin-1 (CLDN1) has important roles in carcinogenesis and metastasis in various cancers. The role of CLDN1 in human oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains unknown. Here, we report...

Enhanced cytotoxicity of 5-FU by bFGF through up-regulation of uridine phosphorylase 1
Anti cancer agent 5-FU (Fluoro Uracil) is a prodrug that can be metabolized and then activated to interfere with RNA and DNA homeostasis. However, the majority of administered 5-FU is known to be catabolized in v...

On-chip Escherichia coli culture, purification, and detection of expressed proteins
In a recent study, we reported the results of a rapid high-throughput expression analysis of the affinity-tagged proteins present in total cell lysates, using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) imaging protein ...
