An interplay between the p38 MAPK pathway and AUBPs regulates c-fos mRNA stability during mitogenic stimulation

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways constitute key regulatory elements linking extracellular stimuli to nuclear gene expression. Immediate-early responsive genes (IEGs) of the activator protein 1 (AP-1) family, such as fos, achieve peak expres ...

Unraveling the Physiological Role of Capillary Morphogenesis Gene 2 in Health and Disease

Jérôme Bürgi

Capillary Morphogenesis Gene 2 (CMG2) is a 55kDa single-pass transmembrane protein best described as the main Anthrax Toxin Receptor. However, CMG2 physiological role remains elusive and understanding better its in vivo function was the main objective of m ...

The In-Silico Neocortical Microcircuit

Michael Reimann

The neocortex is one of the most important brain regions, occupying more than 80% of the brain volume in mammals and contributing massively to its capability of perceiving and interpreting then environment. While it has been extensively studied, it is stil ...

Assessing the role of Hes1 and identification of target genes in human and murine T-ALL

Silvia Wirth

The Notch signalling pathway is an ancient cell signalling mechanism that enables short-range communications between cells and controls a broad spectrum of cell fates and developmental processes. In the haematopoietic system Notch signalling has been linke ...

Anticytolytic Screen Identifies Inhibitors of Mycobacterial Virulence Protein Secretion

Stewart Cole, Claudia Sala, Ruben Hartkoorn, Andrej Benjak, Anthony Vocat, Ming Zhang, Jan Lars Rybniker, Jeffrey Chen, Edina Rita Székely

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) requires protein secretion systems like ESX-1 for intracellular survival and virulence. The major virulence determinant and ESX-1 substrate, EsxA, arrests phagosome maturation and lyses cell membranes, resulting in tissue d ...

Lactate promotes plasticity gene expression by potentiating NMDA signaling in neurons

Pierre Magistretti, Igor Allaman, Gabriele Grenningloh, Evelyne Ruchti, Jean-Marie Petit, Pascal Jourdain, Jiangyan Yang

L-lactate is a product of aerobic glycolysis that can be used by neurons as an energy substrate. Here we report that in neurons L-lactate stimulates the expression of synaptic plasticity-related genes such as Arc, c-Fos, and Zif268 through a mechanism invo ...

The Efficacy of Raf Kinase Recruitment to the GTPase H-ras Depends on H-ras Membrane Conformer-specific Nanoclustering

Luc Reymond, Camilo Guzman

Background: Ras nanoclusters contain 6-8 Ras proteins on the plasma membrane and serve as indispensable signaling platforms for Ras-MAPK signaling. Results: Ras membrane conformer mutants impart specific galectin-1-dependent nanoclustering responses. Concl ...

Differential Roles of MAPK Kinases MKK3 and MKK6 in Osteoclastogenesis and Bone Loss

Mario Michael Zaiss

Bone mass is maintained by osteoclasts that resorb bone and osteoblasts that promote matrix deposition and mineralization. Bone homeostasis is altered in chronic inflammation as well as in post-menopausal loss of estrogen, which favors osteoclast activity ...

Targeting pathways downstream of KRAS in lung adenocarcinoma

Oncogenic KRAS activation is responsible for the most common genetic subtype of lung cancer. Although many of the major downstream signaling pathways that KRAS engages have been defined, these discoveries have yet to translate into effective targeted thera ...
