S100A4 promotes inflammation but suppresses lipid accumulation via the STAT3 pathway in chronic ethanol-induced fatty liver

Qi Yuan, Shasha Hou, Junfeng Zhai, Tian Tian, more

Journal of Molecular Medicine > 2019 > 97 > 10 > 1399-1412

S100A4, a member of the S100 calcium-binding protein family, has been identified in a subpopulation of liver macrophages and promotes liver fibrosis via hepatic stellate cell activation. However, the specific role of S100A4 in alcoholic liver disease (ALD) has not been well investigated. Here, S100A4 knockout (S100A4^−/−) mice were used in a chronic-binge ethanol model for studying the role of S100A4...

Functional amino acids in the development of the pig placenta

Guoyao Wu, Fuller W. Bazer, Gregory A. Johnson, Cassandra Herring, more

Molecular Reproduction and Development > 84 > 9 > 870 - 882

The mammalian placenta is essential for supplying nutrients (e.g., amino acids and water) and oxygen from the mother to fetus and for removing fetal metabolites (e.g., ammonia and CO₂) from fetus to mother. Thus, placental growth and development are determinants of fetal survival, growth, and development. Indeed, low birth weight is closely associated with reduced placental growth. Providing gestating...
