Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) initiates a complex signaling cascade that is crucial for inducing osteoclast differentiation and activation. RANKL-induced signaling has been analyzed in detail, and the involvement of TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6), calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMK), NF-κB, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), activator protein-1 (AP-1), and molecules that contain an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) has been reported. However, the precise molecular steps that regulate RANKL signaling remain largely unknown.

Background: Protein palmitoylation, a critical posttranslational modification, plays an indispensable role in various cellular processes, including the regulation of protein stability, mediation of membrane fusion, facilitation of intracellular protein trafficking, and participation in cellular signaling pathways. It is also implicated in the pathogenesis of diseases, such as cancer, neurological disorders, inflammation, metabolic disorders, infections, and neurodegenerative diseases. However, its regulatory effects on sperm physiology, particularly motility, remain unclear.

Background: Bok is a poorly characterized Bcl-2 protein family member with roles yet to be clearly defined. It is clear, however, that Bok binds strongly to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP) receptors (IPRs), which govern the mobilization of Ca from the endoplasmic reticulum, a signaling pathway required for many cellular processes. Also known is that Bok has a highly conserved phosphorylation site for cAMP-dependent protein kinase at serine-8 (Ser-8).

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) genetic/transcriptomic signatures have been widely described. However, its proteomic characterization is incomplete. We performed non-targeted quantitative proteomics of HCC samples and explored its clinical, functional, and molecular consequences.

Background: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), a highly invasive malignancy with a poor prognosis, is one of the most common cancers globally. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have become key regulators of human malignancies, but further studies are necessary to fully understand their functions and possible causes in HNSCC.

Methods: CircCCT2 expression levels in HNSCC tissues and cells were measured via qPCR.
