  Introduction Collagen fibrillogenesis, the assembly of collagen fibers, is a critical process in the development, maturation, and repair of mammalian tissue. Alterations in the structure and amount of deposited collagen fibers can greatly alter the integrity of the whole tissue. Even a single point

  2021-05-21

  

  The UPR is composed of three different pathways that fall under the control of three respective ER transmembrane proteins: PERK, IRE1α (inositol-requiring enzyme 1α) and ATF6 (activating transcription factor 6). As a starting signal for the UPR, misfolded proteins induce the release of GRP78 from th

  2021-05-21

  

  RLS is a genetically complex disorder in which genetic and environmental factors contribute to the phenotype (Trenkwalder, Allen, Högl, Paulus, & Winkelmann, 2016). This disease is highly familial and six genetic variants with single nucleotide polymorphisms have been identified by genome-wide assoc

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Recently, circRNAs have been found to play important diagnostic or prognostic roles in different tumors. For example, aberrant expression levels of different circRNAs are found in ovarian cancer, lung cancer, renal cancer, gastric cancer and particip

  The genomic DNA sequences of CXCL8 and CXCRs were retrieved from the fugu genome database v4.0. The intron–exon boundaries were identified with the corresponding cDNA sequences. This comparison revealed that the fugu gene is about 1.13kb long and contains four exons separated by three introns (top

  2021-05-21

  

  p27Kip1 is a critical component of the cell cycle machinery [15]. As an inhibitor of cyclin E-Cdk2, p27Kip1 plays a pivotal role in controlling cell proliferation, S-phase entry, and G1-phase exit during development and tumorigenesis [16]. p27Kip1 is predominantly regulated via posttranslational mod

  2021-05-21

  

  Lipolysis and fatty Splitomicin oxidation are two important mechanisms involved in fat reduction. Over stimulation of lipolysis increases the level of FFAs in the serum and causes metabolic perturbation (Koutsari and Jensen, 2006). A large inflow of FFAs to the mitochondria may lead to mitochondrial

  2021-05-21

  

  LPA is known to regulate the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ and the reorganization of actin cytoskeleton [58]. However, the physiological functions of LPA in cells are still poorly understood. The simultaneous production of PA with/without 1-LPA or 2-LPA may be important to maximize a

  Since PTKs are involved in numerous aspects of cell function, their regulation is critical for cell survival and function. The carboxyl-terminal tyrosine of Src-family PTKs is a key site of regulation. Phosphorylation on this carboxyl-terminal tyrosine contributes to the induction of a conformationa

  Our earlier experimental studies showed "neutral", i.e. non-proliferative, effects of progesterone but a large increase in proliferation using certain progestins; however, this was only in the presence of PGRMC1 [[13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19]]. The next step was to investigate whether thi

  Celiac disease occurs in the small intestine due to the ingestion of gluten and triggers an immune response by T-cells resulting in tissue remodelling and malnutrition [6]. Earlier studies by many researchers have shown that the prolamins of gluten are the toxic agent for celiac disease, since they

  DDR2, although normally expressed in nuclear receptors with mesenchymal features, has also been reported to enhance EMT. In A549 lung cancer cells, TGFβ1 increases the expression of type I collagen and DDR2. Knocking-down COL1A1 or DDR2 with siRNA is sufficient to inhibit EMT and cell migration ind
