评论了 Targeting p35/Cdk5 Signalling via CIP-Peptide Promotes Angiogenesis in Hypoxia
Cdk5 plays a crucial role in cellular movement and angiogenesis, especially in hypoxic conditions, by influencing the actin-cytoskeleton dynamics and partnering with the activator, p35. Disrupting Cdk5's activity leads to impaired cell movement and angiogenesis, while its coordination with p35 is vital for successful blood vessel formation in low oxygen environments.

评论了 Effects of p35 Mutations Associated with Mental Retardation on the Cellular Function of p35-CDK5
Mutations in the p35 gene have been linked to nonsyndromic mental retardation. However, after studying the biochemical impact of these mutations on p35's functions and its effect on neurons, researchers found no significant difference compared to the normal p35, suggesting these mutations are unlikely to be the cause of mental retardation.
