  The ability to metastasize is the defining character of a cancer and the leading cause for resultant mortality. It is hypothesized that a rare subset of cancer cells, often operationally referred to as “cancer stem cells” (CSCs), are responsible for sustaining cancer metastasis and recurrence [1]. T

  2022-01-04

  

  Introduction Hexokinase (HK) is an enzyme that catalyses the transfer of phosphate from ATP to glucose in the first step of glucose metabolism (Wilson, 1995, Wilson, 2003). In mammalian, HK has four important isozymes which are designated as HK1, HK2, HK3 and HK4 (Wilson, 1995, Wilson, 2003). HK1

  CONUT score is an effective detector of predicting OS and RFS in HCC patients. We found that patients with a damaged immune-nutrition status had significantly poor OS and RFS. Our initial literature review also retrieved other studies evaluating the survival of HCC patients using CONUT score [36,48,

  2022-01-04

  

  Under most circumstances, NO is a potent endogenous vasodilator. Therefore, its involvement in an endothelium-dependent contraction seems paradoxical, to say the least. Soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) is the major downstream target of NO; its inhibition results in the lack of vasoconstrictor response

  Furthermore, increased plasma levels of endoglin have been associated with diabetic complications (Valbuena-Diez et al., 2012). The involvement of soluble endoglin in a number of widespread pathologies demonstrates that endoglin is not only marker of endothelial integrity but also a causative factor

  Our aim was to gain insight into mechanisms that underlie the contribution of thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) to progression of CKD. TSP1 is the most-studied member of the thrombospondin family of matricellular proteins. Previous studies have demonstrated that pharmacological suppression or genetic depletio

  A motivation for this study is the ability of PGD2 to inhibit hair lengthening (). Here we demonstrate that PGD2 also inhibits hair regeneration after wounding. Thus, PGD2 and Gpr44 inhibition of the hair follicle occurs in multiple contexts and may be exploited in future therapies. Pharmaceutical c

  Recent research reveals that human alkyladenine DNA glycosylase (hAAG) is an important protein enzyme which can specifically recognize and excise a variety of alkylated purines and deoxyinosine from DNA [12]. hAAG plays pivotal roles in maintaining genomic integrity, and it is involved in Cyclospori

  2022-01-04

  

  There were significant differences in mRNA expression levels observed for 7 out of 15 analyzed genes. This observation suggests, that selection of a reference/control group may influence interpretation of gene expression studies performed in liver pathologies. This study directly evidenced that anal

  Activation of FXR or TGR5 has overlapping but also differing effects on metabolic regulation and inflammation [1]. In this report, we demonstrate that in addition to preventing the progression of obesity, NAFLD, and atherosclerosis, activation of BA receptors can also promote regression of these com

  While considering the molecular pathogenesis of an MPNST, the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK, mTOR/AKT, p53, and PTEN pathways associated with tumor growth have been described (McCubrey et al., 2012). The involvement of receptor tyrosine kinases such as EGFR and TAM receptor families, and its associated molecular

  Introduction Epigenetic alterations play an important role in carcinogenesis. Aberrant promoter CpG island hypermethylation causes transcriptional gene silencing [1], and has been documented for a number of genes in prostate cancer (PCA) [2]. Histone modifications are also important regulators of t

  2022-01-03

  

  G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) ligands can be classified as either orthosteric or allosteric modulators. Orthosteric and endogenous ligands bind to the same site, which is topologically distinct from the allosteric site. In general, the binding domains of different orthosteric ligands may not exa

  2022-01-03

  

  Retinal GAL receptor distribution suggests an intrinsic neuronal control since retina lacks an autonomic innervation, and a signal modulation seems most likely here, acting via GALR1 while GALR2 and GALR3 seem to play a rather minor role in this signal transduction. While sources acting on these ret
