Stressed out and asthmatic
On page 157, Sarmento and colleagues show how the developmental regulator protein Notch1 advances the cell cycle. Activation of Notch1 induced the production of a protein that chops up cell cycle inhibitors, leading to a shortened G1 phase and a faster transition into S phase (but no overall increase in proliferation). The Notch family of transmembrane receptors regulates both cell fate decisio...
متن کاملMitochondria take center stage
Mitochondria are the ubiquitous power units of animal cells, responsible for “oxphos,” the aerobic synthesis of most of the ATP that serves as the common coin of cellular metabolism. To perform their primary task of oxidative phosphorylation and to manage many secondary tasks, mitochondria use more than 1,000 proteins, of which fewer than 100 are involved directly in oxidative phosphorylation. ...
متن کاملGene silencing: Plants and viruses fight it out
Plants can become 'immune' to attack by viruses by degrading specific viral RNA, but some plant viruses have evolved the general capacity to suppress this resistance mechanism.

Diabetic nephropathy is the most common cause of ESRD in the United States.1 Although current strategies can slow disease progression,2,3 development of renal failure requiring renal replacement therapy is a distressingly common outcome in patients with diabetes.1 As a result, much effort has been devoted to understanding the mechanisms that promote glomerular damage in diabetic kidney disease ...

Seeing they have considered a competing...
