Alpha 1-antitrypsin mitigates salt-sensitive hypertension in juvenile mice by reducing diacylglycerol concentrations and protein kinase C activity in kidney membranes by Yunus E. Dogan, Yunus E. Dogan, Yunus E. Dogan, Niharika Bala, Niharika Bala, Erika S. Galban, Erika S. Galban, Russell L. Lewis, Nancy D. Denslow, Sihong Song, Abdel A. Alli, Abdel A. Alli

“…Western blotting and immunohistochemistry analysis showed the density of the sodium-potassium-chloride co-transporter (NKCC2) was significantly reduced in kidney cortex membrane fractions of juvenile mice that received hAAT compared to vehicle.ConclusionTaken together, this study demonstrates a new protective effect of hAAT in normalizing blood pressure after the development of saltinduced hypertension in juvenile mice in a mechanism involving a decrease in NKCC2 membrane expression, presumably due to decreased levels of DAGs in the plasma membrane and a subsequent decrease in PKC activity.…”

Uncovering a novel SERPING1 pathogenic variant: insights into the aggregation of C1-INH in hereditary angioedema by Lingxi Jiang, Chao Dai, Suyang Duan, Tingting Wang, Chunbao Xie, Luhan Zhang, Zimeng Ye, Xiumei Ma, Yi Shi

“…Our observations indicate that this variant leads to an increase in the accumulation of C1-INH within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), resulting in the upregulation of GRP75 protein expression. This cascade of events resulted in Ca2+ overload, disruption of mitochondrial structure and function, and eventually triggered apoptosis. …”

YPEL2 regulates the efficacy of BRD4-EZH2 dual targeting in EZH2Y641mut germinal center-derived lymphoma by Aránzazu Chamorro-Jorganes, Núria Profitós-Pelejà, Clara Recasens-Zorzo, Juan G Valero, Diana Reyes-Garau, Laura Magnano, Ray Butler, Antonio Postigo, Patricia Pérez-Galán, Marcelo Lima Ribeiro, Gaël Roué

“…We observed a specific and synergistic antiproliferative effect of these compounds in EZH2-mutated cells and mouse xenograft models, that was related to the abrogation of MYC transcriptional program and to tumor cell proliferation blockade at the G1 cell cycle phase. Gene expression profile, exploratory data analysis, and siRNA screening identified the PI3K/AKT-regulated gene and mitosis regulator, YPEL2, as a crucial factor involved in the efficacy of MYC/EZH2 dual targeting both in vitro and in vivo. …”
