Glioma amplified sequence 41 (GAS41), which has the Yaf9, ENL, AF9, Taf14, and Sas5 (YEATS) domain that recognizes lysine acetylation (Kac), regulates gene expression as a subunit of the SRCAP (SNF2-related CREBBP activator protein) complex that deposits histone H2A.Z at promoters in eukaryotes. The YEATS domains of the proteins AF9 and ENL recognize Kac by hydrogen bonding the aromatic cage to arginine situated just before K9ac or K27ac in the N-terminal tail of histone H3. Curiously,

Background and aim Dysregulation of angiotensin II type 1 receptor-associated protein (ATRAP) expression in cardiovascular, kidney, and adipose tissues is involved in the pathology of hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy, atherosclerosis, kidney injury, and metabolic disorders. Furthermore, ATRAP is highly expressed in bone marrow-derived immune cells; however, the functional role of immune cell ATRAP in obesity-related pathology remains unclear. Thus, we sought to identify the pathophysiological significance of immune cell ATRAP in the development of visceral obesity and obesity-related metabolic disorders using a mouse model of diet-induced obesity.

Aim To compare the therapeutic effects of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP)/ glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) or GLP-1RAs in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D).

Fusobacterium nucleatum is associated with colorectal cancer (CRC), and identical F. nucleatum strains seemed to be detected in 75% of patients who exhibited the presence of F. nucleatum in both CRC and saliva samples in our previous study; however,
