متن کاملExpression of adenoviral E1A throws the PIDD switch
The adenoviral early region 1A gene (E1A) is a modulator of cellular and viral gene transcription and the primary mediator of cell cycle induction during infection of quiescent cells. It is through these cell cycle effects that E1A can immortalize cells during either abortive infection or stable expression. A side effect of E1A altering cell cycle and host transcriptional activity is that expre...
متن کاملA Master Switch? estrp Directs Blood Vessel Development in Zebrafish
Background: Despite clear links between risky alcohol consumption, mental health problems and smoking with increased morbidity and mortality, there is inconclusive evidence about how these risk factors combine and if they are associated with increased attendance at emergency departments. This paper examines the population-level associations and interactions between alcohol consumption, psycholo...
متن کاملA new cardiac MASTer switch for the renin-angiotensin system.
The aspartyl protease renin was first isolated from the kidney by Tigerstedt more than a century ago. In the kidney, renin secretion is tightly linked to sodium intake and renal perfusion pressure, reflecting the important role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in controlling body fluid volume and blood pressure. The study by Mackins et al. in this issue of the JCI describes a novel source ...
متن کاملTNF: a master switch for inflammation to cancer.
Chronic inflammation has long been associated with the development of cancer, ever since Rudolf Virchow's first observation that leukocytes were present in neoplastic tissue more than 130 years ago. Recent evidences have reignited the interest of cancer researchers in the exciting concept of an association between chronic inflammation and cancer. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), initial...
