Activin and TGF-β signaling: Differential role of a Serine/Threonine phosphate in the regulation of SMAD2 activity
Activins are the most prominent members of the Activin/Inhibin branch of the TGF-β superfamily. Similar to TGF-β, they play an essential role in regulating multiple physiological processes such as development, reproductive ... -
Ageing associated altered host response to bacterial infection
Chapters in which I have elucidated and elaborately described how senescence alters the cellular response to infection, here I demonstrate how senescence in multiple tissues simultaneously contribute to pathogen spread and ... -
Biochemical and Functional Characterization of the Mycobacterial PdtaS-PdtaR Two Component System
Two-Component Systems (TCSs) are primarily prokaryotic modes of cell signaling involving a receptor sensor kinase (SK) that senses stimuli and a response regulator (RR) that effects a response, usually at the level of ... -
Identification and Characterization of Molecular and Genetic Regulators of Cellular Senescence - Role of Free Radical Homeostasis
Aging is defined in an evolutionary biological context as a steady state decline in the specific fitness components of an organism due to internal physiological deterioration. The most profound and important contribution ... -
Role of PdtaS-PdtaR two component signalling system in metabolic adaptation in Mycobacterium spp.
The ability to perceive and adapt to environmental fluctuations, both internal and external, is a fundamental characteristic of life across diverse organisms. Within the context of pathogenic bacteria such as Mycobacterium ... -
Spatio-temporal Regulation of GPCR mediated MAPK Transactivation in Living Cells
Signal transduction is a mode of cellular communication essential for an organism’s sustenance and survival. Cell communication in higher organisms is largely executed by two classes of cell surface receptors i.e. G-protein ... -
Systemic Profiling of Two Component Signaling Networks in Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
(2018-05-23)Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative organism of the disease tuberculosis (TB) in humans, leads to nearly two million deaths each year. This versatile pathogen can exist in highly distinct physiological states such ... -
Understanding cholesterol homeostasis and its impact on GPCR signalling in aging
Full text embargo One year up to July 2024 Aging is defined as the time-related deterioration of physiological functions necessary for survival of organisms. Despite significant progress in the extension of human lifespan ... -
Understanding the role of hydrogen sulfide in regulating redox homeostasis and inflammation during cellular senescence
Aging involves the time-dependent deterioration of physiological functions, which can be attributed to various factors. Cellular senescence has been shown to be akin to aging, which involves alteration in redox homeostasis ...
