Ca2+ Mediated Protein Citrullination Regulates Proliferation in the Regenerating and Malignant CNS

This study found that enzymatic conversion of Arg-51 in S100A3 protein to citrulline promotes homotetramer assembly, potentially increasing Ca²⁺ binding required for hair cuticular barrier formation.

The document concludes that human astrocytes aid stroke recovery, research confidence affects student career aspirations, collagen affects cancer spread, a microRNA suppresses brain cancer growth, calmodulin regulates water channels, and small magnesium pieces deform differently.

This study found that β-catenin signaling increases in newly born glial cells in the cortex after traumatic brain injury in mice, suggesting potential targets for enhancing recovery through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This study found that in vivo and in vitro, citric acid metabolism through the CS-CA axis suppressed hair growth and induced inflammation and cell apoptosis in hair follicles, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target.

This study found that the protein CCN2 in dermal papilla cells is a physiologically relevant suppressor of hair follicle formation by destabilizing β-catenin, which may help maintain stem cell quiescence.
