STIM2 regulates capacitive Ca2+ entry in neurons and plays a key role in hypoxic neuronal cell death.

18 Oct 2009 Excessive cytosolic calcium ion (Ca(2+)) accumulation during cerebral ischemia triggers neuronal cell death, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Capacitive Ca(2+) entry (CCE) is a process whereby depletion of intracellular Ca(2+) ... Read more...

Cytoplasmic LRIG2 expression is associated with poor oligodendroglioma patient survival.

18 Oct 2009 The three leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains (LRIG) genes encode integral membrane proteins. Of these, LRIG1 negatively regulates growth factor signaling and is implicated as a tumor suppressor in certain malignancies. In ... Read more...

The NADPH oxidase Nox4 restricts the replicative lifespan of human endothelial cells.

10 Oct 2009 The free radical theory of aging proposes that ROS (reactive oxygen species) are major driving forces of aging, and are also critically involved in cellular senescence. Besides the mitochondrial respiratory chain, alternative sources of ROS have ... Read more...
