Nutritional roles of selenium in cellular and mouse aging
(2013)
Oxidative stress and persistent DNA damage response can lead to cellular senescence and aging. The ATM kinase and p53 protein play critical roles in the DNA damage response to reactive oxygen species and other DNA-damaging ...
ANTICANCER MECHANISM OF TOLFENAMIC ACID IN COLORECTAL CANCER
(2016)
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States. Chemopreventive therapies could be effective way to treat CRC. Tolfenamic acid, one of the NSAIDs, shows anti-cancer activities ...
TRPV4, a calcium-permeable channel, regulates oxidized LDL-induced macrophage foam cell formation
(2017)
Accumulation of lipid-laden “macrophage foam cell” in the arterial wall is the hallmark of atherosclerosis that leads to the highest number of cardiovascular disease-related deaths in United States. Membrane scavenger ...
TRPV4, A CALCIUM-PERMEABLE CHANNEL, PLAYS A ROLE IN MATRIX STIFFNESS INDUCED MACROPHAGE POLARIZATION
(2020)
Phenotypic polarization of macrophages is deemed essential in innate immunity and various pathophysiological processes, but little is known about how mechanical forces like matrix stiffness regulate the polarization and ...
Identification of ESE-1 as a novel molecular target of chemopreventive agents for colon cancer prevention
(2019)
Epithelial specific ETS-1 (ESE-1) is one of the E26 transformation-specific transcription factor superfamily and could be considerable interest as a possible target for regulating diverse types of human cancer. Despite its ...
Role of Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) Calcium-permeable Channels in Fibro-inflammatory Diseases
(2021)
Tissue fibrosis and foreign body response (FBR) have emerged as two major public health problems globally over the last few decades. While fibrosis is an outcome of a dysregulated wound healing process, FBR, a chronic ...
Identification and functional analysis of a biflavone as a novel inhibitor of TRPV4-dependent atherogenic process in macrophages
(2021)
Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of death throughout the world. Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease of large arteries, is the major contributor to the growing burden of cardiovascular disease-related ...
THE ROLE OF ESE-1 IN NON-SMALL CELL LUNG CANCER (NSCLC) CELLS
(2020)
Lung cancer is the most life-threatening cancer in the world. The identification of the effective molecular target is essential for lung cancer prevention and therapy. Epithelial Specific ETS-1 (ESE-1) is a transcription ...
