When splicing turns bad.
RNA splicing, the process that removes introns from pre-mRNA and links exons together to generate the fully mature messenger RNA (mRNA), is a complicated and highly regulated process. Splicing is catalyzed by the spliceosome, a large RNA-protein complex composed of several small nuclear ribonucleoprotein complexes (snRNPs) that each have a specific task during splicing. Correct splicing is impo...
متن کاملWhen Sweet Turns Salty
SEE PAGE 804 O ne of the most challenging aspects of obesity is its link to “metabolic syndrome,” when abdominal obesity is accompanied by high fasting blood glucose, low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high levels of triglycerides, and elevated blood pressure. With rising obesity rates, metabolic syndrome is likely to become more common in the years ahead (1). Although progress...
متن کاملHypoxic Vasospasm Mediated by cIMP: When Soluble Guanylyl Cyclase Turns Bad
In a number of isolated blood vessel types, hypoxia causes an acute contraction that is dependent on the presence of nitric oxide and activation of soluble guanylyl cyclase. It is more pronounced when the preparations are constricted and is therefore termed hypoxic augmentation of vasoconstriction. This hypoxic response is accompanied by increases in the intracellular level of inosine 5'-tripho...
متن کاملWhen Good Turns Bad: Regulation of Invasion and Metastasis by ErbB2 Receptor Tyrosine Kinase
Overexpression and activation of ErbB2 receptor tyrosine kinase in breast cancer is strongly linked to an aggressive disease with high potential for invasion and metastasis. In addition to inducing very aggressive, metastatic cancer, ErbB2 activation mediates processes such as increased cancer cell proliferation and survival and is needed for normal physiological activities, such as heart funct...
متن کاملVentral pallidum firing codes hedonic reward: when a bad taste turns good.
The ventral pallidum (VP) is a key structure in brain mesocorticolimbic reward circuits that mediate "liking" reactions to sensory pleasures. Do firing patterns in VP actually code sensory pleasure? Strong evidence for hedonic coding requires showing that neural signals track positive increases in sensory pleasure or even reversals from bad to good. A useful test is the salt alliesthesia of phy...
