The Aurora A kinase may contribute to polycystic kidney disease (PKD) by inactivating a key calcium channel in kidney cells, according to a study in the June 13 issue of The Journal of Cell Biology.
A paper published online on June 13 in the Journal of Experimental Medicine identifies new gene mutations in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)—a disease often associated with lack of response to chemotherapy and poor overall survival.
A small protein called SUMO might prevent the protein aggregations that typify Parkinson’s disease (PD), according to a new study in the July 11, 2011, issue of The Journal of Cell Biology.
A new study describes how hyperactivation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) promotes neurodegeneration in Huntington’s disease (HD). The article appears online on July 18, 2011, in The Journal of Cell Biology.
Blocking a growth factor receptor cripples cancer growth in a form of T cell leukemia, according to a study published online on August 1 in the Journal of Experimental Medicine (www.jem.org).
Tumors have an arsenal of tricks to help them sidestep the immune system. A study published on September 19 in the Journal of Experimental Medicine reveals a new trick—the ability to keep tumor-fighting T cells out by disabling a T cell–attracting protein within the tumor core.
Cells making slippery mucus provide a sticking point for disease-causing bacteria in the gut, according to a study published on October 3 in the Journal of Experimental Medicine.
Differences in the levels of two key metabolic enzymes may explain why some people are more susceptible to liver damage, according to a study in the October 17 issue of The Journal of Cell Biology (www.jcb.org).
The neurodegeneration associated with Alzheimer's disease is thought to be caused by small, soluble A-beta complexes, partly through their ability to induce excess calcium influx into cells, which stimulates cell death. A new study reveals that A-beta oligomers elevate calcium by forming calcium-permeable pores in the plasma membrane.
Two proteins conspire to promote Lou Gehrig’s disease, according to a study published in the Journal of Experimental Medicine.
