Article Abstract
Id1 is a member of the inhibitor of differentiation (Id) protein family that regulates a wide range of cell functions. Previous studies have shown that expression of the Id1 gene is down-regulated by TGF-beta in epithelial cells, whereas it is up-regulated by BMP in a variety of cell types. During our study of the biological function of TGF-beta1, we found that Id1 can be strongly up-regulated by TGF-beta1 in the human mammary gland epithelial cell line MCF10A. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR has revealed as high as 7.5-fold induction of Id1 mRNA by TGF-beta1 in MCF10A cells after 1 h of TGF-beta1 stimulation, and this induction does not require de novo protein synthesis. Using Smad knockdown and knockout approaches, we have identified Smad3 as the responsible R-Smad for mediating transcriptional activation of the Id1 gene. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assay confirms that Smad3 and Smad4 bind to the upstream region of the Id1 gene. Our results demonstrate that Smad3, but not Smad2, mediates TGF-beta1-dependent early transcriptional induction of Id1.

This study aimed to explore the effect of artificial dynamic ON/OFF stimulation on the development of myopia and associated retinal proteomic changes in guinea pigs, and elucidate the underlying mechanisms. Myopia was induced in one eye of guinea pigs using -4 diopters lenses, with the other eye used as the untreated control. 53 guinea pigs were randomly given balanced ON/OFF (natural control, NC), ON, or OFF stimulation for 7 days.

Background: Bone marrow-derived macrophage (BMDM) is key tool cell for studying biological processes such as immunity and inflammation. It is also known as a cell drug that can be used for cytotherapy of many diseases such as liver fibrosis. Given the high demand for BMDMs in research, this study explored the most cost-effective, high-productivity method and its molecular mechanism for obtaining Macrophage Colony-Stimulating Factor (M-CSF)-induced mouse BMDM.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) poses significant challenges due to its high malignancy and limited treatment options. FIN56 has emerged as a potent inducer of ferroptosis, yet its precise mechanism of action in HCC remains elusive.
Methods: Ferroptosis induction by FIN56 in HCC cells was assessed by quantifying malondialdehyde (MDA), 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), reactive oxygen species (ROS), glutathione (GSH) and Liperfluo levels, as well as evaluating changes in mitochondrial morphology.

Brown and beige adipocytes can be activated by β-adrenergic agonist via cAMP-dependent signaling. Performing RNA-sequencing analysis in human cervical area-derived adipocytes, we found that dibutyryl-cAMP, which can mimic in vivo stimulation of browning and thermogenesis, enhanced the expression of browning and batokine genes and upregulated several signaling pathway genes linked to thermogenesis. We observed that the expression of inhibitor of DNA binding and cell differentiation (ID) 1 and particularly ID3 was strongly induced by the adrenergic stimulation.

Objective: Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling via SMAD2/3 is crucial to control cartilage homeostasis. However, TGF-β can also have detrimental effects by signaling via SMAD1/5/9 and thereby contribute to diseases like osteoarthritis (OA). In this study, we aimed to block TGF-β-induced SMAD1/5/9 signaling in primary human OA chondrocytes, while maintaining functional SMAD2/3 signaling.
