Cyclophilin-40, a protein with homology to the P59 component of the steroid receptor complex. Cloning of the cDNA and further characterization.
TL;DR: A chemical cross-linking study revealed that CyP-40 competes for 125I-CyP-18 binding to calcineurin in the presence of CsA, suggesting that Cyp-40 might be involved in modulating the activity of biologically important receptors.

Synaptic Proteins in the Hippocampus Indicative of Increased Neuronal Activity in CA3 in Schizophrenia
Wei Li,Subroto Ghose,Kelly Gleason,Anita Begović,Jessica M. Perez,John J. Bartko,Scott J. Russo,Anthony D. Wagner,Lynn D. Selemon,Carol A. Tamminga +9 more
TL;DR: The hippocampal data are consistent with increased excitatory signaling in CA3 and/or with an elevation in silent synapses inCA3, a state that may contribute to an increase in long-term potentiation in CA2 with subsequent stimulation and "unsilencing."

TL;DR: The data presented herein demonstrate that gamma-gene induction by butyrate and trichostatin A involves ATF-2 and CREB1 activation via p38 MAPK signaling.

Identification of two calcineurin B-binding proteins: tubulin and heat shock protein 60.
Wei Li,Robert E. Handschumacher +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that mitochondrial expression of CaNB far exceeds that of CaNA, and may be important for Ca(++)-dependent processes in mitochondria, and CaNB may play other regulatory roles in Ca( ++)-dependent events in addition to its interaction with CaNA.

Fetal hemoglobin induction by histone deacetylase inhibitors involves generation of reactive oxygen species
TL;DR: The findings presented herein support a ROS-p38 MAPK cell signaling mechanism for HbF induction by butyrate and trichostatin A.
