Extracellular Protein Kinase Interacts with Broad Spectrum of Potential Substrates

A single enzyme, Fam20C, has been linked to the phosphorylation of more than 100 different proteins representing nearly 90% of all phosphorylated secreted proteins.  More...

Diabetes Drug Shows Promise as an Anticancer Immunotherapeutic Agent

Treatment with the anti-diabetes drug sitagliptin of some types of cancer in a mouse model was found to increase the infiltration of T lymphocytes into tumors and, in combination with existing immunotherapies, eradicate the tumor.   More...

Regulatory T-cells (Treg cells) are critically important for preventing the body’s immune response from going overboard and causing autoimmune disease (Photo courtesy of the [US] National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases).

Hypoxia Factors Contribute to Maintenance of Regulatory T-cell Function

A team of cell biologists has identified a molecular pathway that maintains the stability and function of regulatory T-cells, which are components of the immune system that suppress immune responses of other cells and act as an important “self-check” built into the immune system to prevent excessive reactions.  More...
