Bortezomib Inhibits Hypoxia-Induced Proliferation by Suppressing Caveolin-1/SOCE/[Ca] Signaling Axis in Human PASMCs.

Background: Previous studies have demonstrated the ubiquitin-proteasome inhibitor bortezomib (BTZ) can effectively alleviate hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension (HPH) by suppressing the intracellular calcium homeostasis in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs). Further evaluation showed that the antiproliferation roles of BTZ are mainly mediated by inhibition of the intracellular calcium homeostasis. Caveolin-1 belongs to one of the key regulators of the intracellular calcium homeostasis in PASMCs, which can regulate the store-operated calcium entry (SOCE).

BAI1‑associated protein 2‑like 2 is a potential biomarker in lung cancer.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer‑related death worldwide. The underlying molecular mechanisms that trigger this disease remain largely unknown. The I‑BAR family is involved in regulating cell membrane formation and some members, such as BAIAP2L1, IRSp53 and MIM have been shown to participate in tumorigenic progression.

Allelic variation of high molecular weight glutenin subunits of bread wheat in Hebei province of China.

In common wheat ( L.), allelic variations of Glu-1 loci have important influences on grain end-use quality. The allelic variations in high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) were identified in 151 hexaploid wheat varieties representing a historical trend in the cultivars introduced or released inHebei province ofChina fromthe years 1970s to 2010s.
