A novel regulatory role of TRAPPC9 in L-plastin-mediated osteoclast actin ring formation

Trafficking protein particle complex 9 (TRAPPC9) is a major subunit of the TRAPPII complex. TRAPPC9 has been reported to bind nuclear factor κB kinase subunit β (IKKβ) and NF-kB-inducing kinase (NIK) where it plays a role in the canonical and…

TRAPPC9: Novel insights into its trafficking and signaling pathways in health and disease (Review).

Trafficking protein particle complex 9 (TRAPPC9) is a protein subunit of the transport protein particle II (TRAPPII), which has been reported to be important in the trafficking of cargo from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi, and in…

Anthocyanin-rich black currant extract suppresses the growth of human hepatocellular carcinoma cells.

Dietary antioxidants, such as anthocyanins, are helpful in the prevention and control of various diseases by counteracting the imbalance of oxidative and antioxidative factors in the living systems. Black currant (Ribes nigrum L., Grossulariaceae) is…

Brain-targeted delivery of paclitaxel using glutathione-coated nanoparticles for brain cancers.

Paclitaxel is not effective for treatment of brain cancers because it cannot cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) due to efflux by P-glycoprotein (P-gp). In this work, glutathione-coated poly-(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs) of…

Alteration of hepatic proinflammatory cytokines is involved in the resveratrol-mediated chemoprevention of chemically-induced hepatocarcinogenesis.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), one of the most common cancers in the world, is a leading cause of cancerrelated mortality. HCC develops most frequently in the background of oxidative stress and chronic hepatic inflammation due to viral infections,…

Mutation in Osteoactivin Promotes Receptor Activator of NFkappaB Ligand (RANKL)-mediated Osteoclast Differentiation and Survival but Inhibits Osteoclast Function.

We previously reported on the importance of osteoactivin (OA/Gpnmb) in osteogenesis. In this study, we examined the role of OA in osteoclastogenesis, using mice with a nonsense mutation in the Gpnmb gene (D2J) and wild-type controls (D2J/Gpnmb(+)).…

Anthocyanin-rich black currant (Ribes nigrum L.) extract affords chemoprevention against diethylnitrosamine-induced hepatocellular carcinogenesis in rats.

Anthocyanins are known to possess potent anticarcinogenic properties against several cancers thus demonstrating potential for cancer prevention. Black currant (Ribes nigrum L., Grossulariaceae) fruits have a high anthocyanin content. This…

Suppression of the inflammatory cascade is implicated in resveratrol chemoprevention of experimental hepatocarcinogenesis.

PURPOSE: Resveratrol, present in grapes and red wine, has been found to prevent diethylnitrosamine (DENA)-initiated rat liver tumorigenesis, though the chemopreventive mechanisms are not completely elucidated. The current study was designed to…
