The results suggest that H2O2 may act as a signal-transducing molecule, and they suggest a potential mechanism for the cardioprotective effects of antioxidants.

It is suggested that in normal diploid cells, Ras proteins regulate oxidant production and that a rise in intracellular H2O2 represents a critical signal mediating replicative senescence.
rac1 regulates a cytokine-stimulated, redox-dependent pathway necessary for NF-kappaB activation

Results suggest that in HeLa cells, rac1 regulates intracellular ROS production and that rac proteins function as part of a redox-dependent signal transduction pathway leading to NF-kappaB activation.

Based on data, NSIP should be separated into cellular and fibrosing patterns, because these histologic patterns are associated with different clinical characteristics and prognoses.

Chemotherapy to lower the eosinophil counts has resulted in marked improvement of HES prognosis, as have agressive medical and surgical approaches to cardiovascular complications.
Regulation of reactive-oxygen-species generation in fibroblasts by Rac1.

- Biology, MedicineBiochemical Journal
- 1 September 1996
These results provide the first demonstration of the pathway by which ligand stimulation of ROS occurs in non-phagocytic cells and suggest that the family of Ras-related small GTP-binding proteins may function as regulators of the intracellular redox state.
Comprehensive evaluation of 35 patients with lymphangioleiomyomatosis.
Improved diagnostic methods have defined the abnormalities in patients with pulmonary LAM and increased the potential for early recognition and treatment of this disorder.
Nonmuscle myosin II-B is required for normal development of the mouse heart.

It is suggested that nonmuscle myosin II-B is required for normal cardiac myocyte development and that its absence results in structural defects resembling, in part, two common human congenital heart diseases, tetralogy of Fallot and double outlet right ventricle.
Modulation of retinoid signalling through NGF-induced nuclear export of NGFI-B

It is shown that nerve growth factor induces the phosphorylation of Ser 105 of NGFI-B in PC12 phaeochromocytoma cells, resulting in translocation of the NG FI-B–RXR heterodimer complex out of the nucleus using nuclear export signals within NGfi-B.
Pulmonary Langerhans Cell Granulomatosis (Histiocytosis X) A Clinicopathologic Study of 48 Cases

The frequent finding of intraluminal fibrosis and the frequent peribronchiolar location of PLCG lesions are consistent with the concept that in adults this disorder is associated with an abnormal response to cigarette smoke.
