The growth-related protein p23 of the Ehrlich ascites tumor (EAT) is preferentially expressed in the exponentially growing tumor; its synthesis is translationally controlled. p23 mRNA is efficiently translated in the wheat germ cell-free lysate. In contrast, p23 mRNA present in poly(A)+RNA isolated from EAT is not translated in cell-free systems of EAT and reticulocytes. Moreover, translation of a p23 transcript is inhibited in the presence of total poly(A)+RNA. This inhibition is abolished by the removal of the 5'-UTR of the p23 transcript. Solution hybridization/RNase protection experiments point to the presence of a nucleotide sequence complementary to the 5'-UTR of p23 mRNA which might be involved in p23 mRNA inhibition.

Dietary Protein Regulates Female Estrous Cyclicity Partially via Fibroblast Growth Factor 21.

Nutrients

Key Laboratory for Animal Disease Resistant Nutrition of the Ministry of Education, Animal Nutrition Institute, Sichuan Agricultural University, Chengdu 611130, China.

Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), a hormone predominantly released in the liver, has emerged as a critical endocrine signal of dietary protein intake, but its role in the control of estrous cyclicity by dietary protein remains uncertain. To investigated the role of FGF21 and hypothalamic changes in the regulation of estrous cyclicity by dietary protein intake, female adult Sprague-Dawley rats with normal estrous cycles were fed diets with protein contents of 4% (P4), 8% (P8), 13% (P13), 18% (P18), and 23% (P23). FGF21 liver-specific knockout or wild-type mice were fed P18 or P4 diets to examine the role of liver FGF21 in the control of estrous cyclicity.

Background: After birth, mammalian cardiomyocytes substantially lose proliferative capacity with a concomitant switch from glycolytic to oxidative mitochondrial energy metabolism. Micro-RNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression and thus control various cellular processes. Their roles in the postnatal loss of cardiac regeneration are however still largely unclear.

Excessive illumination is one of the most severe environmental factors that impacts the organism. There is growing evidence that obesity significantly contributes to the onset of chronic kidney disease. However, the effect of continuous light on the kidney and which color can produce an apparent phenomenon remains elusive.

The genetic contribution of the X chromosome in age-related hearing loss.

Front Genet

February 2023

Center for Statistical Genetics, Gertrude H. Sergievsky Center, and the Department of Neurology, Columbia University Medical Center, New York, NY, United States.

Age-related (AR) hearing loss (HL) is the most common sensory impairment with heritability of 55%. The aim of this study was to identify genetic variants on chromosome X associated with ARHL through the analysis of data obtained from the UK Biobank. We performed association analysis between self-reported measures of HL and genotyped and imputed variants on chromosome X from ∼460,000 white Europeans.
