Checkpoint and Coordinated Cellular Responses to DNA Damage
The DNA damage and replication checkpoints are signaling mechanisms that regulate and coordinate cellular responses to genotoxic conditions. The... -
Regulation of S Phase
Regulation of DNA replication is critical for accurate and timely dissemination of genomic material to daughter cells. The cell uses a variety of... -
Control of Cell Proliferation and Growth by Myc Proteins
Myc proteins act as signal transducers that alter cell proliferation in dependence on signals from the extracellular environment. In normal cells,... -
The Retinoblastoma Gene Family in Cell Cycle Regulation and Suppression of Tumorigenesis
Since its discovery in 1986, as the first tumor suppressor gene, the retinoblastoma gene (Rb) has been extensively studied. Numerous biochemical and... -
Senescence and Cell Cycle Control
In response to various stresses, such as telomere shortening during continuous proliferation, oxidative stress, DNA damage and aberrant oncogene... -
Mouse Models of Cell Cycle Regulators: New Paradigms
In yeast, a single cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) is able to regulate diverse cell cycle transitions (S and M phases) by associating with multiple... -
G1 Phase: Components, Conundrums, Context
A eukaryotic cell must coordinate DNA synthesis and chromosomal segregation to generate a faithful replica of itself. These events are confined to... -
The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in cell cycle control
Ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis is one of the key mechanisms underlying cell cycle control. The removal of barriers posed by accumulation of... -
Protein Kinases Involved in Mitotic Spindle Checkpoint Regulation
A number of checkpoint controls function to preserve the genome by restraining cell cycle progression until prerequisite events have been properly... -
Cell Cycle Regulation in Mammalian Germ Cells
Meiosis is a unique form of cellular division by which a diploid cell produces genetically distinct haploid gametes. Initiation and regulation of... -
Modeling Cell Cycle Control and Cancer with pRB Tumor Suppressor
Cancer is a complex syndrome of diseases characterized by the increased abundance of cells that disrupts the normal tissue architecture within... -
The Centrosome Cycle
Centrosomes are dynamic organelles involved in many aspects of cell function and growth. Centrosomes act as microtubule organizing centers, and... -
Doing a double take: when transthoracic echocardiography fails for mitral valve annuloplasty ring endocarditis with Streptococcus pyogenes: a case report
BackgroundThis case highlights several complications of a late and rare presentation of culture-negative Streptococcus pyogenes endocarditis of a...

Inhibitors of apolipoprotein C3, triglyceride levels, and risk of pancreatitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis
In recent years, novel apoC3 inhibitor therapies for the treatment of hypertriglyceridemia have been developed and assessed through phase II and III...

Emerging biologic augmentation strategies for meniscal repair: a systematic review
BackgroundMeniscal repair should be the gold standard. However, the meniscus is poorly vascularized and even an excellent meniscus repair may not...

Altered RNA export by SF3B1 mutants confers sensitivity to nuclear export inhibition
SF3B1 mutations frequently occur in cancer yet lack targeted therapies. Clinical trials of XPO1 inhibitors, selinexor and eltanexor, in high-risk...

Effectiveness of synthetic versus autologous bone grafts in foot and ankle surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis
BackgroundAll orthopaedic procedures, comprising foot and ankle surgeries, seemed to show a positive trend, recently. Bone grafts are commonly...

Diffusion-tensor magnetic resonance imaging as a non-invasive assessment of extracellular matrix remodeling in lumbar paravertebral muscles of rats with sarcopenia
BackgroundExtracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling in skeletal muscle is a significant factor in the development of sarcopenia. This study aims to...

Dietary salt promotes cognitive impairment through repression of SIRT3/PINK1-mediated mitophagy and fission
Dietary salt is increasingly recognized as an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment. However, the exact mechanisms are not yet fully...
