A Screen for Modifiers of Cilia Phenotypes Reveals Novel MKS Alleles and Uncovers a Specific Genetic Interaction between <i>osm-3</i> and <i>nphp-4</i> by Svetlana V. Masyukova (849325)

“…Four loci have been identified, three of which are established ciliopathy genes <i>mks-1</i>, <i>mks-2</i>, and <i>mks-5</i>. The fourth allele (<i>yhw66</i>) is a missense mutation (S316F) in OSM-3, a kinesin required for cilia distal segment assembly. …”

Quality of Life and Costs in Parkinson's Disease: A Cross Sectional Study in Hungary by Gertrúd Tamás (328848)

“…The total mean cost was €6030.2 (SD = 6163.0)/patient/year (direct medical 35.7%, direct non-medical 29.4%, indirect cost 34.9%). A one year increase in disease duration and 0.1 decrease of the EQ-5D utility score increase the yearly costs by 8 to 10%, and 7.8%, respectively. …”

“…Knockdown of circRNA-0008706 significantly suppressed the proliferation and migration phenotype of HASMCs and decreased the BCAT1 expression, which may be due to the specific binding of circRNA-0008706 to microRNA-125b-5p.…”

SERBP1 is a component of the Liver Receptor Homolog-1 transcriptional complex by Yelenis Mari (725499)

“…In contrast, receptor overexpression decreased only SERBP1 mRNA levels. Consistent with these data, in a promoter:reporter assay, binding of NR5A2 to the promoter region of SERBP1 resulted in a decrease in the expression level of the reporter gene, and subsequently, inhibiting transcription. …”

A Novel sLRP6E1E2 Inhibits Canonical Wnt Signaling, Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition, and Induces Mitochondria-Dependent Apoptosis in Lung Cancer by Jung-Sun Lee (164985)

“…We designed a Wnt antagonist sLRP6E1E2, and generated a replication-incompetent adenovirus (Ad), dE1-k35/sLRP6E1E2, and a replication-competent oncolytic Ad, RdB-k35/sLRP6E1E2, both expressing sLRP6E1E2. sLRP6E1E2 prevented Wnt-mediated stabilization of cytoplasmic β-catenin, decreased Wnt/β-catenin signaling and cell proliferation via the mitogen-activated protein kinase, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathways. sLRP6E1E2 induced apoptosis, cytochrome <em>c</em> release, and increased cleavage of PARP and caspase-3. sLRP6E1E2 suppressed growth of the human lung tumor xenograft, and reduced motility and invasion of cancer cells. …”
