The ability of Heat Shock Protein 90 (Hsp90) to hydrolyze ATP is essential for its chaperone function. The co-chaperone Aha1 stimulates Hsp90 ATPase activity tailoring the chaperone function to specific “client” proteins. The intracellular signaling mechanisms directly regulating Aha1 association wi...

Receptor guanylyl cyclase C (GC-C) is expressed in the intestinal epithelia and plays a key role in intestinal physiology. Activation of GC-C by its ligands has been shown to regulate proliferation and differentiation of enterocytes along the crypt-villus axis. This study aims to identify genes regu...

Pattern recognition receptors (PRR) detect microbial products and induce cytokines which shape the immunological response. Interleukin-12 (IL-12), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and IL-1β are proinflammatory cytokines which can be essential for resistance against infection, but if produced at...

Discriminating pathogenic bacteria from energy-harvesting commensals is key to host immunity. Using mutants defective in the enzymes of O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) cycling, we examined the role of this nutrient-sensing pathway in the Caenorhabidits elegans innate immune response. Using w...

Retinitis Pigmentosa is a group of inherited eye disorders characterized by progressive degeneration of photoreceptor cells in the retina, leading to vision loss and eventual blindness. One of the known genetic mutations associated with RP is the c.6926A>C mutation in the RPE (retinal pigment epithe...

Chronic infections by hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) appear to be the most significant causes of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Aberrant promoter methylation is known to be deeply involved in cancer, including HCC. In this study, we analyzed aberrant promoter methylation on gen...

The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) p38alpha controls inflammatory responses and cell proliferation. Using mice carrying conditional p38alpha alleles, we investigated its function in postnatal development and tumorigenesis. When p38alpha is specifically deleted in the mouse embryo, fetuses d...

Luteinizing hormone (LH) activation of the EGF receptor/RAS/ERK1/2 pathway is essential for ovulation and luteinization because granulosa cell depletion of Erk1/2 (Erk1/2gc-/- mice) renders mice completely infertile. Because of their potential as mediators of ERK1/2-dependent granulosa cell differe...
