Body temperature is maintained in a narrow range in mammals, primarily controlled by sweating. In humans, the dynamic thermoregulatory organ, comprised of 2-4 million sweat glands distributed over the body, can secrete up to 4 liters of sweat per day1, thereby making it possible to withstand high te...

To study the epigenetic regulation of intestinal epithelium we focus on the role of chromatin modulators. Lysine-specific histone demethylase 1a (KDM1A, LSD1) is one of the enzymes that can erase the H3K4me1/2 mark. To assess the role of LSD1 in intestinal epithelium we studied wild type (WT) (Villi...

Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is the most common hereditary cause of kidney failure, resulting from germline mutations in PKD1 and PKD2 in over 90% of cases. Polycystin-1 (PC-1), a cell surface receptor linked to focal adhesion proteins, plays a critical role in regulating cel...

Calactin is a small molecule isolated from the Chinese herb Asclepias curassavica. We found that calactin induced DNA damage, G2/M arrest of cell cycle, and apoptosis. The calactin also increased the H2AX and Chk2 phosphorylation, which resulted in the decrease of Cdc25C and cdk1 expressions, indica...

Glycogen and lipid are major storage forms of energy that are tightly regulated by hormones and metabolic signals. Here, we evaluate the role of the glycogenic scaffolding protein PTG/R5 in energy homeostasis. We demonstrate that feeding mice a high-fat diet (HFD) increases hepatic glycogen, corresp...

Gut dysbiosis and host genetics are implicated as causative factors in inflammatory bowel disease, yet mechanistic insights are lacking. Longitudinal analysis of ulcerative colitis patients following total colectomy with ileal anal anastomosis (IPAA) where >50% develop pouchitis, offers a unique set...

A genome-wide gene expression comparison between primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) and normal lymph node was performed to identify a differential exprssion and specific pathway. Experiment design: 7 PCNSL and 7 normal lymph node tissues were used for comparison.
