Background: The helix-loop-helix (HLH) proteins Id-1, Id-2 and Id-3 have been demonstrated to inhibit the activity of transcription factors and play an important role in regulating cell growth and tissue-specific differentiation.
Methods: To elucidate the involvement of Id in human oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), we examined 83 surgical specimens and eight normal gingival mucosae for the expression of Id proteins by immunohistochemistry; in addition, some specimens of the OSCC and the normal gingivae were also examined for the expression of Id-1 mRNA by in situ hybridization (ISH), while Western blots were performed on six of the tumours and on cell lysates of five OSCC cell lines. We also explored the correlation between Id expressions and cellular proliferation indicating Ki-67 or clinical parameters.
Results: We discovered a higher and more frequent expression of Id-1 protein (27.7%) in human OSCC compared to that of Id-2 and Id-3 proteins (6.0 and 7.2%, respectively). Western blot analysis detected Id-1 protein in four of six tumour samples and in all cell lines. ISH demonstrated strong cytoplasmic localization of Id-1 mRNA in tumour samples at significantly higher levels compared to those of normal gingival mucosae.
Conclusion: Id-1 protein expression significantly correlates with lymph node status, indicating that increased Id expression may relate to the metastatic behaviour in human OSCC.

Objective: Osteosarcoma (OS) is a highly invasive bone tumor that frequently metastasizes to the lungs. This study aims to investigate the role of the Id-1 gene in OS invasion and metastasis, and its relationship with the Snail gene.
Methods: This study included tissue samples from 12 non-metastatic osteosarcomas and 9 metastatic osteosarcoma patients to examine the expression of Id-1 and Snail using RT-qPCR and analyze their correlation.

Brown and beige adipocytes can be activated by β-adrenergic agonist via cAMP-dependent signaling. Performing RNA-sequencing analysis in human cervical area-derived adipocytes, we found that dibutyryl-cAMP, which can mimic in vivo stimulation of browning and thermogenesis, enhanced the expression of browning and batokine genes and upregulated several signaling pathway genes linked to thermogenesis. We observed that the expression of inhibitor of DNA binding and cell differentiation (ID) 1 and particularly ID3 was strongly induced by the adrenergic stimulation.

Bone morphogenetic protein 3b (BMP3b), also known as growth differentiation factor 10 (GDF10), is a non-osteogenic BMP highly expressed in the skeleton. Although in vitro studies have shown that BMP3b suppresses osteoblast differentiation, the physiological role of BMP3b in regulating bone mass in vivo remains unknown. Here, we show that BMP3b deletion in mice leads to a high bone mass phenotype via an unexpected novel mechanism involving de-repression of canonical BMP/Smad signaling.

PD-L1 is expressed in many tumors but rarely in normal tissues, therefore, it can be a target of PET imaging. In this work, we developed new peptide-based PET probes [F]AlF-PAI-PDL1p and [Ga]Ga-PAI-PDL1p with yields of 20-25 % and 40-55 %, respectively. [F]AlF-PAI-PDL1p and [Ga]Ga-PAI-PDL1p were synthesized within 30 min with high molar activities.
