Alternations in protein ubiquitination along with hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) signaling contribute to tumorigenesis and breast tumor advancement. Ubiquitination is an impulsive process, which is coordinately governed by E3 ligases and deubiquitinases (DUBs), that have come out as charismatic therapeutic targets. HIF expression, as well as the transcriptional process in malignancies, are frequently elevated, resulting in pitiable clinical outcomes. According to increasing research, multiple E3 ligases, in addition to UBDs work together to modulate HIF expression and activity, permitting breast cancer cells to make out a hypoxic milieu. On the other hand, hypoxia and HIF signaling regulate numerous E3 ligases as well as DUBs. Interpreting involved networks connecting E3 ligase, DUBS, and HIF will reveal profound mechanisms of physiological response to hypoxia and aid in the discovery of new molecular references for cancer management. The present state of knowledge about the entire kinship among E3 ligase, DUBs, and HIF signaling is reviewed here, emphasizing using E3 ligase or DUB inhibitors in breast cancer.

: Following previous findings on high-salt (HS)-intake-related increase of oxidative stress, this study explored whether carnosine (CAR; β-alanyl-L-histidine), a reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger, enhanced antioxidative defence and vascular function following HS, potentially via the NRF2 or HIF-1α signalling pathway. : Sprague Dawley rats (64, 8-10 weeks old, both sexes) were divided into four groups (n = 6/group): CTRL (0.4% NaCl), HS (4% NaCl for 7 days), CTRL + CAR (0.

Osteoarthritis (OA), particularly in the knee and hip, poses a significant global health challenge due to limited therapeutic options. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of OA and identify potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets, we utilized genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and cis-miRNA expression quantitative trait loci (cis-miR-eQTL) datasets to identify miRNAs associated with OA, revealing 16 that were linked to knee OA and 21 to hip OA. Among these, hsa-miR-1303 was significantly upregulated in both knee and hip OA (IVW: = 6.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short sequences of single-stranded non-coding RNAs that target messenger RNAs, leading to their repression or decay. Interestingly, miRNAs play a role in the cellular response to low oxygen levels, known as hypoxia, which is associated with reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress. However, the physiological implications of hypoxia-induced miRNAs ("hypoxamiRs") remain largely unclear.

Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are membrane sensors that monitor alterations in the extracellular milieu and translate this information into appropriate cellular responses. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is the most well-known model in which gene expression is upregulated by mitogenic signals through the activation of multiple signaling cascades or by nuclear translocation of the full-length EGFR protein. RON (Receptuer d'Origine Nantatise, also known as macrophage stimulating 1 receptor, MST1R) has recently gained attention as a therapeutic target for human cancer.

Agouti-related peptide (AgRP) is a well-established potent orexigenic peptide primarily expressed in hypothalamic neurons. Nevertheless, the expression and functional significance of extrahypothalamic AgRP remain poorly understood. In this study, utilizing histological and molecular biology techniques, we have identified a significant expression of Agrp mRNA and AgRP peptide production in glomus type I cells within the mouse carotid body (CB).
