Article Abstract
The activation and stabilization of the p53 protein play a major role in the DNA damage response. Protein levels of p53 are tightly controlled by transcriptional regulation and a number of positive and negative posttranslational modifiers, including kinases, phosphatases, E3 ubiquitin ligases, deubiquitinases, acetylases and deacetylases. One of the primary p53 regulators is Mdmx. Despite its RING domain and structural similarity with Mdm2, Mdmx does not have an intrinsic ligase activity, but inhibits the transcriptional activity of p53. Previous studies reported that Mdmx is phosphorylated and destabilized in response to DNA damage stress. Three phosphorylation sites identified are Ser342, Ser367, and Ser403. In the present study, we identify protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) as a negative regulator in the p53 signaling pathway. PP1 directly interacts with Mdmx and specifically dephosphorylates Mdmx at Ser367. The dephosphorylation of Mdmx increases its stability and thereby inhibits p53 activity. Our results suggest that PP1 is a crucial component in the ATM-Chk2-p53 signaling pathway.

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a myeloproliferative neoplasm, is characterized by the fusion gene, which results in constitutive tyrosine kinase activity. While tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have significantly improved CML outcomes, resistance and the persistence of leukemic stem cells remain major clinical challenges. Curcumin, a natural polyphenol derived from , has demonstrated potential anticancer properties.

Objective: The present study explores the association between these inflammatory markers and metastasis in osteosarcoma patients.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of osteosarcoma patients at our center between January 2022 and August 2024. We collected the clinical and laboratory data of the patients, including white blood cell differential count, C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels.

Recent years have seen advances in clinical biochemistry of domestic animals which have highlighted comparative differences between species and have also identified fundamental aspects of the biochemical mechanisms in physiological conditions and disease, that have implications across species, including human, health and welfare. From investigations in diverse species using biochemical, immunological, proteomic and metabolomic approaches a series of species particularities and unexpected results for some biomarkers have been made. These observations cover (1) the differences between species in the acute phase protein (APP) response to infection and inflammation; (2) the non-hepatic synthesis and release in the mammary gland, adipose tissue and intestine of APP (3) the response of haptoglobin (HP) as a biomarker for stress; (4) observations in non-mammalian species related to hemopexin and HP; (5) the response of bile acids in milk to mastitis; (6) barley serine protease inhibitors being identified in bovine faeces; (7) alkaline phosphatase being present in bovine nasal secretion; (8) saliva findings with analytes such as adenine deaminase showing different activity between saliva and serum and a detergent-like surfactant protein, latherin being found in equine saliva and sweat and (9) serum enzymes and selective muscle protein reaction of Atlantic salmon as an example of the differences in biochemistry between terrestrial and aquatic species.

Cardiac hypertrophy is a common adaptation to cardiovascular stress and often a prelude to heart failure. We examined how S-palmitoylation of the small GTPase, Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1), impacts cardiomyocyte stress signaling. Mutation of the cysteine-178 palmitoylation site impaired activation of Rac1 when overexpressed in cardiomyocytes.
