Environmental chemicals and toxins are known to impact human health and contribute to cancer developments. Among these, genotoxins induce genetic mutations critical for cancer initiation. In the liver, proliferation serves not only as a compensatory mechanism for tissue repair but also as a potential risk factor for the progression of premalignant lesions.

Mast cells (MC) are crucial effectors in immediate allergic reactions. Monomeric IgE sensitizes MC and triggers various signaling responses. FcεRI/IgE/antigen crosslinking induces the release of several mediators, including bioactive lipids, but little is known about endocannabinoids (eCBs) secretion.

Pulmonary hypertension is a progressive disease associated with remodeling of the pulmonary vasculature. Excessive proliferation and migration of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) play important roles in nicotine-induced vascular injury. Connexin 43 (Cx43) is involved in intracellular communication and regulation of the pulmonary vasculature.

The mechanism of rotator cuff injury remains to be elucidated. And COX-2 plays a dual role in skeletal muscle injury and regeneration, would be associated with the development of rotator cuff injury. Therefore, we chose human skeletal muscle cells (HSKMC) as an in vitro muscle tissue model and transfected lentivirus with overexpressed COX-2 to simulate the in vitro environment of rotator cuff injury.

Protein post-translational modifications, such as phosphorylation, are important regulatory signals for diverse cellular functions. In particular, intrinsically disordered protein regions (IDRs) are subject to phosphorylation as a means to modulate their interactions and functions. Toward understanding the relationship between phosphorylation in IDRs and specific functional outcomes, we must consider how phosphorylation affects the IDR conformational ensemble.
