Podocyte [apoptosis:LYSO] is considered as the important element that promotes the development
and progress of membranous nephropathy (MN). Unfortunately, the underlying mechanism of
podocytes [apoptosis:LYSO] in MN remains elusive. We compared the renal expressions of miR-
130a-5p and M-type [phospholipase:PROT] [A2:PROT] receptor ([PLA2R:PROT]) between MN
patients (n = 30) and 30 controls by qRT-[PCR:PROT] and western blot, respectively. The podocyte
damage model in vitro was established by [angiotensin II:PROT] ([Ang II:PROT], 100 nmol/L)
exposure for 24 h. Interaction between miR-130a-5p and [PLA2R:PROT] was determined using dual-
[luciferase reporter gene:PROT] assay. MN mice were induced by intravenous injection of cBSA. In
this study, miR-130a-5p expression was significantly decreased both in the renal biopsy specimens
from MN patients and podocyte cell line AB8/13 following stimulation of [Ang II:PROT].
Overexpressed miR-130a-5p in AB8/13 cells significantly attenuated the [Ang II:PROT] induced-
[apoptosis:LYSO] in vitro. In contrast, down-regulated miR-130a-5p induced podocyte
[apoptosis:LYSO]. [PLA2R:PROT] was identified as the target of miR-130a-5p in AB8/13 cells. And up-
regulated or down-regulated [PLA2R:PROT] could obviously attenuate the effect of miR-130a-5p
overexpression or knockdown on the [apoptosis:LYSO] of AB8/13 cells. Furthermore, it was also
observed that overexpressed miR-130a-5p by miR-130a-5p agomir could obviously alleviate renal
injury in MN mice. In conclusion, decreased miR-130a-5p was contributed to the pathological
mechanism of MN through increasing [PLA2R:PROT] expression, which induced podocyte
[apoptosis:LYSO].

4. Rottlerin as a natural agent, which is isolated from Mallotus philippinensis, has been identified to
play a critical role in tumor inhibition. However, the molecular mechanism of rottlerin-mediated anti
-tumor activity is still ambiguous. It has been reported that [EZH2:PROT] exhibits oncogenic function
s in a variety of human cancers. Therefore, inhibition of [EZH2:PROT] could be a promising strategy f
or the treatment of human cancers. In this study, we aim to explore whether rottlerin could inhibit t
umorigenesis via suppression of [EZH2:PROT] in prostate cancer cells. Multiple approaches such as F
ACS, Transwell invasion assay, [RT:PROT]-[PCR:PROT], Western blotting, and transfection were perfo
rmed to determine our aim. We found that rottlerin treatment led to inhibition of cell growth, migra
tion and invasion, but induction of [apoptosis:LYSO] in prostate cancer cells. Importantly, we defined
that rottlerin decreased the expression of [EZH2:PROT] and H3K27me3 in prostate cancer cells. Mor
eover, overexpression of [EZH2:PROT] abrogated the rottlerin-induced inhibition of cell growth, migr
ation, and invasion in prostate cancer cells. Consistently, down-regulation of [EZH2:PROT] enhanced
rottlerin-triggered anti-tumor function. Collectively, our work demonstrated that rottlerin exerted its
tumor suppressive function via inhibition of [EZH2:PROT] expression in prostate cancer cells. Our fin
dings indicated that rottlerin might be a potential therapeutic compound for treating patients with p
rostate cancer.

6. Dendrites function as the primary sites for synaptic input and integration with impairments in
dendritic arborization being associated with dysfunctional neuronal circuitry. Post-mitotic neurons
require high levels of basal [autophagy:LYSO] to clear cytotoxic materials and autophagic
dysfunction under native or cellular stress conditions has been linked to neuronal [cell death:LYSO]
as well as axo-dendritic degeneration. However, relatively little is known regarding the
developmental role of basal [autophagy:LYSO] in directing aspects of dendritic arborization or the
mechanisms by which the autophagic machinery may be transcriptionally regulated to promote
dendritic diversification. We demonstrate that [autophagy:LYSO]-related (Atg) genes are positively
regulated by the [homeodomain transcription factor:PROT] Cut, and that basal [autophagy:LYSO]
functions as a downstream effector pathway for Cut-mediated dendritic terminal branching in
Drosophila multidendritic (md) sensory neurons. Further, loss of function analyses implicate Atg
genes in promoting cell type-specific dendritic arborization and terminal branching, while gain of
function studies suggest that excessive [autophagy:LYSO] leads to dramatic reductions in dendritic
complexity. We demonstrate that the Atg1 initiator kinase interacts with the dual leucine zipper
kinase ([DLK:PROT]) pathway by negatively regulating the [E3 ubiquitin ligase:PROT] Highwire and
positively regulating the MAPKKK Wallenda. Finally, autophagic induction partially rescues dendritic
atrophy defects observed in a model of polyglutamine toxicity. Collectively, these studies implicate
transcriptional control of basal [autophagy:LYSO] in directing dendritic terminal branching and
demonstrate the importance of homeostatic control of autophagic levels for dendritic arbor
complexity under native or cellular stress conditions.

9. Mast cells and Kupffer cells secrete interleukin (IL)-, [interferon:PROT] ([IFN:PROT])-γ, and
[tumor [necrosis:LYSO] factor:PROT] ([TNF:PROT])-α, which stimulate excess nitric oxide (NO)
producing-inducible NO synthase ([iNOS:PROT]). Unlike Kupffer cells, [immunoglobulin E:PROT]-
sensitized mast cells elicit sustained NO production. We investigated the participation of mast cell-
released NO and cytokine-derived [iNOS:PROT] activation in type 1 allergy-suppressed hepatic
cytochrome [P450:PROT] ([CYP:PROT]) metabolism. Aminoguanidine, a selective [iNOS:PROT]
inhibitor, completely suppressed serum nitrate plus nitrite (NOx) concentrations after primary and
secondary sensitization of ICR mice and markedly attenuated allergy-suppressed hepatic
[CYP1A2:PROT], CYP2C, [CYP2E1:PROT], and CYP3A activities. In the liver, primary and secondary
sensitization enhanced [iNOS:PROT]-stimulating [IFN:PROT]-γ (5-15-fold) and [TNF:PROT]-α (3-5-
fold) mRNA levels more than [IL-1:PROT]β (2-fold) and [F4:PROT]/80-positive Kupffer cell (2-fold)
mRNA levels. When mast cell-deficient (-/-) mice were sensitized, hepatic [CYP:PROT] activities were
not suppressed. Serum NOx levels in the sensitized -/- mice were similar with those in saline-treated
ICR and -/- mice. In the liver of -/- mice, secondary sensitization markedly enhanced mRNA
expression of [iNOS:PROT] (20-fold), [IFN:PROT]-γ (15-fold), and [TNF:PROT]-α (3-fold). However,
hepatic total [NOS:PROT] activities in -/- mice were not significantly different between saline
treatment and sensitization. Similarly, primary and secondary ICR mice did not significantly enhance
total [NOS:PROT] activities in the liver and hepatocytes. The total [NOS:PROT] activities observed did
not relate to the high levels of [iNOS:PROT], [IFN:PROT]-γ, and [TNF:PROT]-α mRNA in the liver.
Hepatic [c-kit:PROT]-positive mast cells in sensitized ICR mice were maintained at control levels.
Therefore, our data suggest that mast cell-released NO participates in type 1 allergy-suppressed
[CYP1A2:PROT], CYP2C, [CYP2E1:PROT], and CYP3A metabolism.
