Table_2_BAG3 Suppresses Loading of Ago2 to IL6 mRNA in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma.xlsx by Chao Li (145513)

“…BAG3 is correlated with poor prognostics in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), however, the exact mechanisms remain largely unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that BAG3 downregulation decreased IL6 release by PDACs, and IL6 reduction was, at least partially, responsible for suppression of PSCs activation by PDACs with BAG3 downmodulation. …”

Genetics, Synergists, and Age Affect Insecticide Sensitivity of the Honey Bee, <i>Apis mellifera</i> by Frank D. Rinkevich (107592)

“…While the causes of these losses are numerous and the interaction between them is very complex, the role of insecticides has garnered much attention. As a result, there is a need to better understand the risk of insecticides to bees, leading to more studies on both toxicity and exposure. …”

Members of the <i>RAD52</i> Epistasis Group Contribute to Mitochondrial Homologous Recombination and Double-Strand Break Repair in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> by Alexis Stein (822633)

“…We have determined that both Rad51p and Rad59p are localized to the matrix of the mitochondria and that Rad51p binds directly to mitochondrial DNA. In addition, a mitochondrially-targeted restriction endonuclease (mtLS-<i>Kpn</i>I) was used to produce a unique double-strand break (DSB) in the mitochondrial genome, which allowed direct analysis of DSB repair <i>in vivo</i> in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>. …”

ATG3-dependent autophagy mediates mitochondrial homeostasis in pluripotency acquirement and maintenance by Kun Liu (148201)
