While aging was traditionally viewed as a stochastic process of damage accumulation, it is now clear that strongly influenced by genetics. The identification and characterization long-lived genetic mutants in model organisms has provided insights into the pathways molecular mechanisms involved extending longevity. Long-lived exhibit activation multiple stress response leading to enhanced resistance exogenous stressors. As result, lifespan exhibits significant, positive correlation with stress. Disruption inhibits extension representing different can also reduce wild-type animals. Combined, this suggests key mechanism which achieve their extended longevity many these are required for normal lifespan. These results highlight an important role determining organism.

Interaction of the T cell receptor (TCR) with an MHC-antigenic peptide complex results in changes at molecular and cellular levels cells. The outside environmental cues are translated into various signal transduction pathways within cell, which mediate activation genes help specific transcription factors. These signaling networks propagate effector enzymes, such as kinases, phosphatases, phospholipases. Integration these disparate is done adaptor proteins that non-enzymatic function serve a scaffold for protein-protein interactions. This process aids connecting proximal to distal pathways, thereby contributing full review provides comprehensive snapshot molecules involved regulating signaling, covering both enzymes adaptors, will discuss their role human disease.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder; it the most common cause of dementia and has no treatment. It characterized by two pathological hallmarks, extracellular deposits amyloid beta (Aβ) intraneuronal Neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). Yet, those hallmarks do not explain full pathology seen with AD, suggesting involvement other mechanisms. Neuroinflammation could offer another explanation for progression disease.

Inflammasomes integrate cytosolic evidence of infection or damage to mount inflammatory responses. The inflammasome sensor NLRP1 is expressed in human keratinocytes and coordinates inflammation the skin. We found that diverse stress signals induce assembly by activating MAP kinase p38: While ribotoxic response UV microbial molecules exclusively activates p38 through MAP3K ZAKα, with arthropod-borne alphaviruses, including Semliki Forest Chikungunya virus, ZAKα potentially other MAP3K. demonstrate directly phosphorylates serine 107 linker region critical for activation. phosphorylation followed ubiquitination NLRP1PYD, N-terminal degradation NLRP1, nucleation inflammasomes NLRP1UPA-CARD.

Carnosic acid (CA) and carnosol (CAR) are two major diterpenes of the rosemary plant (Rosmarinus officinalis). They possess a phenolic structural moiety endowed with power to remove cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) either through direct scavenging reaction or indirectly upregulation antioxidant defences. Hand in hand these activities their multiple biological effects therapeutic potential orchestrated modulating various signalling pathways inflammation, including NF-κB, MAPK, Nrf2, SIRT1, STAT3 NLRP3 inflammasomes, among others. Consequently, they ameliorate expression pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF-α, IL-1 IL-6), adhesion molecules, chemokines prostaglandins. These anti-inflammatory mechanisms action as link compounds, many other natural products, scrutinised.

The ribotoxic stress response (RSR) is a signaling pathway in which the p38- and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)-activating mitogen-activated protein (MAP3K) ZAKα senses stalling and/or collision of ribosomes. Here, we show that reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generating agents trigger ribosomal impairment activation. Conversely, zebrafish larvae deficient for are protected from ROS-induced pathology. Livers mice fed ROS-generating diet exhibit ZAKα-activating changes elongation dynamics.

Once thought of in terms bioenergetics, mitochondria are now widely accepted as both the orchestrator cellular health and gatekeeper cell death. The pulmonary disease field has performed extensive efforts to explore role regulating inflammation, metabolism, apoptosis, oxidative stress. However, a critical component these processes needs be more studied: mitochondrial network dynamics. Mitochondria morphologically change response their environment regulate through fusion, fission, mitophagy. This allows adapt function respond requirements, maintaining homeostasis. For that reason, dynamics can considered bridge brings multiple together, revealing potential pathway for therapeutic intervention. In this review, we discuss modulators how they affected diseases, including chronic obstructive (COPD), idiopathic fibrosis (IPF), acute lung injury (ALI), arterial hypertension (PAH). A dysregulated plays crucial pathobiology, aberrant fission/fusion/mitophagy pathways druggable warrant further exploration. Thus, also candidates therapeutics

While ultraviolet (UV) radiation damages DNA, eliciting the DNA damage response (DDR), it also RNA, triggering transcriptome-wide ribosomal collisions and a ribotoxic stress (RSR). However, relative contributions, timing, regulation of these pathways in determining cell fate is unclear. Here we use time-resolved phosphoproteomic, chemical-genetic, single-cell imaging, biochemical approaches to create chronological atlas signaling events activated cells responding UV damage. We discover that UV-induced apoptosis mediated by RSR kinase ZAK not through DDR. identify two negative-feedback modules regulate ZAK-mediated apoptosis: (1) GCN2 activation limits attenuates (2) activity leads phosphodegron autophosphorylation its subsequent degradation. These tune ZAK's collision levels establish regimes homeostasis, tolerance, death, revealing key role as cellular sentinel for nucleic acid
