Daxx-mediated transcriptional repression was modulated by a speckled POZ domain protein SPOP which was first identified as an autoantigen from the serum of a scleroderma patient. This is the first report on the biochemical and functional interactions between Daxx and SPOP. The COOH-terminal region of Daxx interacts with the NH2-terminal region of SPOP. SPOP reversed the transcriptional repression mediated by Daxx which binds with ETS1 transcription factor to repress ETS1-responsive gene expression. Mutagenesis study suggests that the ability of SPOP to self-associate as well as its ability to bind with Daxx was important for the modulation of Daxx-mediated transcriptional repression.

Aging involves a range of genetic, epigenetic, and physiological alterations. A key characteristic of aged cells is the loss of global heterochromatin, accompanied by a reduction in canonical histone levels. In this study, we track the fate of centromeres in aged human fibroblasts and tissues and in various cellular senescent models.

Baicalein, one of the major active flavonoids found in Scutellaria baicalensis, has been revealed to exhibit potent anti-inflammatory properties in allergic airway inflammation. This study aimed to explore the role of baicalein and its relevant mechanism in the treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR). The bioinformatics tools were used to predict the targets of baicalein and AR-related genes.

Department of Emergency and Critical Care Medicine, Affiliated Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine, Nanjing, Jiangsu, 210028, People's Republic of China.

Narciclasine (Ncs) was effective in sepsis management due to its antioxidant properties. The present study dissected the protective effects of Ncs against sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) and the molecular mechanisms. The SA-AKI mice were developed using cecum ligation and puncture and pretreated with Ncs and adenoviruses.

Delayed wound closure is a significant hallmark associated with diabetes. A previous study from our laboratory identified decreased levels of Dicer and miRNAs together with altered levels of wound healing genes in the wounded tissues of diabetic rats. Comprehensive regulators of these wound healing genes mapped onto the PRC2 (polycomb repressive complex 2) complex.
