Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Adrenomedullin on Acute Lung Injury Induced by Carrageenan in Mice by Talero Elena, Di Paola Rosanna, Mazzon Emanuela, Emanuela Esposito, Motilva Virginia, Cuzzocrea Salvatore

“…AM treatment attenuated the recruitment of leucocytes in the lung tissue and the generation and/or the expression of the proinflammatory cytokines as well as the expression of the intercellular cell adhesion molecules. Moreover, AM inhibited the induction of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), thereby abating the generation of nitric oxide (NO) and prevented the oxidative and nitroxidative lung tissue injury, as shown by the reduction of nitrotyrosine, malondialdehyde (MDA), and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) levels. …”

Purine-rich element binding protein alpha: a DNA/RNA binding protein with multiple roles in cancers by Shiyi Yu, Chengyang Jiang, Yawen Yang, Fei Cheng, Fangchen Liu, Chang Liu, Xue Gong

“…Most recently, several studies have revealed that PURα is dysregulated in multiple cancers, such as breast cancer (BC) and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The oncogenic or tumor-suppressive functions of PURα are realized via regulating RNA/protein interaction, mRNA translation, formation of stress granules (SGs), and transcriptional regulation of several oncogenes and tumor suppressors. …”
