A-kinase interacting protein 1 (AKIP1) has been shown to interact with a broad range of proteins involved in various cellular processes, including apoptosis, tumorigenesis, and oxidative stress suggesting it might have multiple cellular functions. In this study, we used an epitope-tagged AKIP1 and by combination of immunochemical approaches, microscopic methods and reporter assays we studied its properties. Here, we show that various levels of AKIP1 overexpression in HEK-293 cells affected not only its subcellular localization but also resulted in aggregation. While highly expressed AKIP1 accumulated in electron-dense aggregates both in the nucleus and cytosol, low expression of AKIP1 resulted in its localization within the nucleus as a free, non-aggregated protein. Even though AKIP1 was shown to interact with p65 subunit of NF-kappaB and activate this transcription factor, we did not observe any effect on NF-kappaB activation regardless of various AKIP1 expression level.

Background/objectives: A-kinase-interacting protein 1 (AKIP1) has been discovered to be a pivotal signaling adaptor in the regulation of human labor and associated with preterm birth, but its effect on fetal growth was still unclear. Meanwhile, the regulation role of DNA methylation (DNAm) on placental and fetal development has been demonstrated. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the association of DNAm in maternal peripheral blood with placental development and full-term small for gestational age (FT-SGA) neonates, and to explore whether placenta mediate the association between DNAm and FT-SGA; Methods: This study was a case-control study including 84 FT-SGAs and 84 FT-AGAs derived from the Shenzhen Birth Cohort Study.

Background: Rapid proliferation is a hallmark of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and a major contributor to its recurrence. Aberrant ubiquitination has been implicated in various diseases, including cancer. In our preliminary studies, we identified Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2S (UBE2S) as a potential glioma biomarker, exhibiting close associations with glioma grade and protein phosphatase 1, regulatory subunit 105 (Ki67) expression levels.

Background: Definite treatment for glioma is not exist, and with increased drug resistance, more effort should be paid to identify new prognostic biomarkers and molecular targets for therapy for glioma patients.
Aim: The current study aimed to evaluate the immunohistochemical (IHC) expression of MTAP and A-Kinase Interacting Protein 1 (AKIP1) in astrocytoma and to investigate their association with the clinicopathological characters of these cases.
Methods: Totally 66 cases of astrocytoma patients involved in this study.
Impact of diffused versus vasculature targeted DNA damage on the heart of mice depleted of telomeric factor Ft1.

Article Synopsis
- DNA damage is identified as a significant contributor to heart disease, particularly involving cardiomyocytes and smooth muscle cells, though the details are not fully understood.
- Research focused on a factor called Ft1 in mice and AKTIP in humans, revealing that its depletion leads to telomere instability and DNA damage, impacting heart health.
- Two mouse models with varying Ft1 depletion showed that both developed cardiac issues like hypertrophy and fibrosis, but the smooth muscle-targeted model exhibited milder, age-exacerbated symptoms, suggesting Ft1 deficiency is a key factor in cardiac disease progression.
A Kinase Interacting Protein 1 regulates mitochondrial protein levels in energy metabolism and promotes mitochondrial turnover after exercise.

A Kinase Interacting Protein 1 (AKIP1) is a signalling adaptor that promotes mitochondrial respiration and attenuates mitochondrial oxidative stress in cultured cardiomyocytes. We sought to determine whether AKIP1 influences mitochondrial function and the mitochondrial adaptation in response to exercise in vivo. We assessed mitochondrial respiratory capacity, as well as electron microscopy and mitochondrial targeted-proteomics in hearts from mice with cardiomyocyte-specific overexpression of AKIP1 (AKIP1-TG) and their wild type (WT) littermates.
