Article Title: Ribosomal Stress Couples with the Hypoxia Response in Dec1-Dependent Orthodontic Tooth Movement

doi: 10.3390/ijms24010618

Figure Lengend Snippet: Regulation of hypoxia-responsive genes, heat shock proteins, and ribosomal proteins in hPDL fibroblasts under compression force (CF). ( A ) Quantitative RT-PCR analysis reveals that the expression levels of HIF-1α, Dec1, HSP27, and HSP105 are induced at 4 and 6 h in the CF group. ( B ) CF treatment results in the induced expression of RPL4, RPL6, RPS7, and RPL9 in hPDL fibroblasts. ( C ) The expression levels of RPS12, RPS16, RPS24, and IL-1β were increased at 4 and 6 h in the CF group compared to the control group. The data shown represent means ± SD; * p < 0.05. All results are representative of experiments done in triplicate. CF, compression force.

Article Snippet: The membranes were incubated overnight with primary antibodies: from Abcam (Cambridge, UK) [(RPL4, ab174269, 1:1000), (RPL9, ab182556, 1:2000), (RPS12, ab167428, 1:1000), (RPS16, ab177951, 1:1000), (RPS24, ab196052, 1:1000), (HSP105, ab109624, 1:1000), (Bax ab32503, 1:1000), (HIF-1α, ab2185, 1:500)], from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Waltham, MA, USA) [(RPL6, PA5-30217, 1:1000), (RPS7, PA5-110326, 1:1000)], from Novus Biologicals (Centennial, CO, USA) [(Dec1, NB100-1800, 1:1000)] and from Cell Signaling Technology (Danvers, MA USA) [β-actin, 4970, 1:1000), (GAPDH, 2118, 1:1000) followed by incubation with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG (1:2000; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA) at room temperature for 1 h. An ECL Plus Western Blotting Detection System (GE Healthcare, Tokyo, Japan) was used to visualize the immunoreactive bands, and images were captured using the Luminescent ImageQuant LAS 4000 Mini (GE Healthcare, Tokyo, Japan).

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) The interaction between the HEV IRESI and RPS3A is shown in the cartoon and rendered in cyan and lime, respectively. The interacting nucleotides and amino acids are rendered in licorice and colored in atom-wise mode like C: cyan/white, O: red, N: blue and S: yellow. (B) The interaction between the HEV IRESI and RPS7 is shown in the cartoon and rendered in cyan and lime, respectively. The interacting nucleotides and amino acids are rendered as shown in (A). (C) The interaction between the HEV IRESI and RPL26 is shown in the cartoon and rendered in cyan and lime, respectively. The interacting nucleotides and amino acids are rendered as shown in (A). (D) The interaction between the HEV IRESI and RPL5 is shown in the cartoon and rendered in cyan and lime, respectively. The interacting nucleotides and amino acids are rendered as shown in (A). (E-H) The quantitative polar contacts between nucleotide and amino acids are measured for the indicated complexes and shown in bar-graph (Y-axis: hydrogen bond distance, X-axis interacting pair of nucleotides@aminoacids). (I) The binding free energy for the indicated complexes are plotted in the bar graph.

doi: 10.1186/s12935-025-03792-0

Figure Lengend Snippet: Plasma EV protein biomarkers for the diagnosis of LUSC. ( A ) Proteins with the highest predictive values in classifying LUSC and BLD with XGBoost. ( B ) ROC curve and confusion matrix in the training set. ( C ) ROC curve and confusion matrix in the test set. ( D ) ROC curve and confusion matrix in the entire cohort. SEN (Sensitivity) and SPE (Specificity) refer to diagnostic performance metrics for distinguishing LUSC from BLD samples. ( E ) Levels of TUBB3 in total plasma from patients with LUSC and BLD. A total of 74 samples (38 BLD and 36 LUSC) were tested. ( F ) Levels of RPS7 in total plasma from patients with LUSC and BLD. A total of 149 samples (44 BLD and 105 LUSC) were tested

Article Snippet: Following the manufacturer’s instructions, commercial assay kits for RPS7 (MyBioSource, USA, Catalog Number: MBS7204349) and TUBB3 (CUSABIO, China, Catalog Number: CSB-E14121h) were used to determine the expression levels of these proteins in preoperative plasma samples.
