Phosphorylation of BOK at Ser-8 Blocks Its Ability to Suppress IP3R-Mediated Calcium Mobilization

The New Role of BOK Protein in Calcium Signaling Regulation Background Introduction BOK (Bcl-2-related ovarian killer) is a member of the Bcl-2 protein family and has long been thought to play a role in cell apoptosis. However, recent studies suggest that BOK may also have non-apoptotic functions, particularly in the regulation of calcium ion (Ca²⁺...

The SIRT5-JIP4 Interaction Promotes Osteoclastogenesis by Modulating RANKL-Induced Signaling Transduction

SIRT5-JIP4 Interaction Promotes Osteoclastogenesis by Modulating RANKL-Induced Signaling Transduction Research Background Osteoporosis is a common bone disease characterized by reduced bone density and disrupted bone microstructure, leading to an increased risk of fractures. Osteoclasts, the primary cells responsible for bone resorption, play a cri...
