Septic arthritis is usually of hematogenous origin and is increasingly being reported in elderly patients, who often have underlying medical conditions such as diabetes or alcoholism. We report a 62-year-old patient with alcoholic Liver disease who presented with Escherichia coli bacteremia and septic...
“links” between the extracellular environment and the core of cell-cycle machinery [34,35]. The D-typecyclinfamily consist ofcyclins D1, D2, and D3 [4]. It has been shown thatknockout micelacking individual D-cyclins are viable, and display only minor phenotypes, revealing that these ...
Due to the essential role of cyclin D1 in regulating transition from G1 to S phase in cell cycle, aberrant cyclin D1 expression is a major oncogenic event in many types of cancers. In particular, the dysregulation of ubiquitination-dependent degradation
For instance, Cdk2 and cyclin A contact each other at both the N- and C-lobes, whereas the contacts between Cdk4 and cyclin D are limited to the N- lobe, and, unlike Cdk2, the cyclin does not impose an active conformation on the kinase as the Cdk4 ATP-binding site is still ...
Diabetes Care Aug 2007 OBJECTIVE—Numerous studies in the U.S. and elsewhere have reported an increased risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) among women who are overweight or obese compared with lean or normal-weight women. Despite the number and overall consistency of studies reporting a ...
Results: Administration of FTY720 to db/db mice led to sustained normalization of hyperglycemia by stimulating in vivo β-cell regeneration through PI3K-dependent regulation of cyclin D3 and p57KIP2. Conclusion: FTY720 is capable of promoting in vivo β-cell regeneration in obesity diabetes. ...
and the active site is sandwiched in-between. The N-lobe contains a glycine-rich inhibitory element (G-loop) and a unique major helix - the C-helix (containing the PSTAIRE sequence in Cdk1). The C-lobe contains the activation segment, which spans from the DFG motif (D145 in Cdk2; ...
Fig. 4. Pathways of different common targets affecting type 2 diabetes mellitus and colon cancer. AC: Adenylatecyclase; cAMP: cyclic adenosine monophosphate; CDK: Cyclin dependent kinase; CREB: cAMP response element-binding protein; DPP-4: Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV; ER: Estrogen receptor; GLP:...
In addition to constitutive Cdk2 activity, mouse ESCs are characterized by relatively high activity of the cyclin D3/Cdk6 complex. Despite the low expression of cyclin D3, the cyclin D3/Cdk6 complexes formed have high catalytic activity and are not sensitive to p16 inhibitor (Faast et a...
