Monocyte eukaryotic initiation factor 2 signaling differentiates 17-hydroxy-docosahexaenoic acid levels and pain by Peter R.W. Gowler, Asta Arendt-Tranholm, James Turnbull, Rakesh R. Jha, David Onion, Tony Kelly, Afroditi Kouraki, Paul Millns, Sameer Gohir, Susan Franks, David A. Barrett, Ana M. Valdes, Victoria Chapman

“…QIAGEN ingenuity pathway analysis identified the top ranked canonical biological pathway to be eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (EIF2) signaling (lower activation level in the low 17-HDHA-high pain group compared to the high 17-HDHA-low pain group (Z score −3)), followed by EIF4 and P70S6K signaling pathways and mTOR signaling. Our approach provides insight into the biological pathways contributing to the association between 17-HDHA and chronic osteoarthritis (OA) pain, identifying EIF2 signaling, with known roles in osteoclast differentiation, OA pathology, and pain, as a potential downstream target.…”

Human Periodontal Ligament Stem Cell-Derived Exosomes Promote Bone Regeneration by Altering MicroRNA Profiles by Ting Liu, Wenyun Hu, Xue Zou, Jingchen Xu, Shushu He, Le Chang, Xinyi Li, Yuanyuan Yin, Mi Tian, Ziyu Li, Jialiang Zhou, Xiaoge Jiang, Song Chen

“…The results of Gene Ontology analysis and pathway analysis demonstrated that the target genes of differentially expressed exosomal miRNAs participate in the regulation of a variety of biological processes, such as catalytic activity, protein binding, metabolic processes, cell development, and differentiation, and are enriched in osteogenic differentiation-related pathways, such as MAPK signaling, AMPK signaling, and insulin signaling pathways. Our results reveal for the first time that the exosomal miRNAs derived from osteogenic differentiated PDLSCs may promote the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, which provides a basis for further research on the regulatory function of exosomal miRNA of PDLSCs during osteogenesis.…”
