Poly-(A)-binding protein cytoplasmic 1 gene regulates cell proliferation via TP53 R273H hotspot activation in Japanese patients with common cancer types
Mutations in TP53 occur in approximately half of all common cancer types and play a critical role in tumor progression and metastasis. However, because mutant TP53 can induce both loss- and gain-of-function effects, the development of dr...

Innervation of the human tubarial gland compared with the major salivary glands; immunohistochemical study for neurochemical substances
The tubarial gland is a potential salivary organ in humans. In this study, the innervation of the tubarial gland was examined using immunohistochemistry for protein gene product 9.5 (PGP 9.5), dopamine β-hydroxylase (DBH), choline acetyl...

IGBP1 protects WEHI-231 cells from BCR-mediated apoptosis through the maintenance of PP6 activity and Bcl-xL stability
The elimination of self-reactive clones through B cell receptor (BCR)-induced apoptosis is a fundamental mechanism for establishing self-tolerance in immature B cells. We previously reported that protein phosphatase 6 (PP6) suppresses BC...

Intratumoral heterogeneity of somatic alterations between spatially separated differentiated and undifferentiated types in gastric cancer
Gastric cancer exhibits substantial intratumoral heterogeneity; however, genetic differences between spatially separated differentiated and undifferentiated components within the same tumor, particularly in deficient mismatch repair (dMM...

Localization of Type 1 plasminogen activator inhibitor in early decidua basalis and its role in pregnancy maintenance
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is a serine protease inhibitor that controls trophoblast invasion by inhibiting fibrinolysis at the feto-maternal interface. This study aimed to compare PAI-1 expression patterns in decidual cell...

Effects of propofol on the mRNA transcript abundance of CB1 receptors in rat brain
This study aimed to elucidate the mechanism underlying tolerance to the sedative effects of propofol, focusing on cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptor regulation. Male Wistar rats received continuous propofol infusion (30–40 mg/kg/h) for 1, 2, 4...

Tipepidine extends median lifespan in Caenorhabditis elegans
Many scientists are interested in anti-aging interventions and seek to identify anti-aging medicines. In our previous study, we reported that an antitussive drug, tipepidine (TIP), activates AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and improv...

CaMKII promotes BCR-induced apoptosis through Bcl-xL downregulation in immature B cells
B cell antigen receptor (BCR) signaling plays a critical role in regulating B cell fate, including activation, tolerance, and apoptosis. In immature B cells, strong BCR engagement induces apoptosis, which contributes to the elimination o...

Constant cGAS activation blunts STING signaling in DU145 prostate cancer cell line
The cGAS-STING pathway is an innate immune pathway that senses microbial and host-derived double-stranded DNA in the cytosol, and triggers type I interferon responses and proinflammatory cytokine production. Recently, activation of the c...

Habitual exercise prior to intracerebral hemorrhage primes brain environment against injury in a dose-dependent manner of the exercise
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating form of stroke with limited treatment options. Although exercise is beneficial in ischemic stroke, its preconditioning effects in hemorrhagic stroke remain unclear. We examined whether volu...
