Abstract Background The interaction between astrocytes and microglia plays a vital role in the damage and repair of brain lesions due to traumatic brain injury (TBI). Recent... -
Scl-Ab reverts pro-osteoclastogenic signalling and resorption in estrogen def...
Abstract Background Neutralising antibodies to sclerostin (Scl-Ab) have shown significant potential to induce bone formation and decrease bone resorption, increase strength and... -
Comparative analyses of the in vivo induction and transmission of α-synuclein...
Abstract α-synuclein (αS) is the major component of several types of brain pathological inclusions that define neurodegenerative diseases termed synucleinopathies. Central... -
Genes targeted by the Hedgehog-signaling pathway can be regulated by Estrogen...
Abstract Background Nuclear receptor family member, Estrogen related receptor β, and the Hedgehog signal transduction pathway are both reported to relate to tumorigenesis and... -
The whole - genome expression analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells ...
Abstract Background Up to 30 % of adults with severe asthma are hypersensitive to aspirin and no unambiguous theory exists which provides a satisfactory explanation for the... -
Differential expression of E-type prostanoid receptors 2 and 4 in microglia s...
Abstract Background Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is induced under inflammatory conditions, and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is one of the products of COX activity. PGE2 has pleiotropic... -
Periostin involved in the activated hepatic stellate cells-induced progressio...
Abstract Background Incomplete thermal ablation may induce invasiveness of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Here, we investigated whether activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs)... -
High cholesterol induces apoptosis and autophagy through the ROS-activated AK...
Abstract Background Hypercholesterolemia increases the risk of tendon pain and tendon rupture. Tendon-derived stem cells (TDSCs) play a vital role in the development of... -
The potassium channel KCa3.1 represents a valid pharmacological target for mi...
Abstract Background Recent studies described a critical role for microglia in Parkinson’s disease (PD), where these central nerve system resident immune cells participate in the... -
iNOS is not responsible for RyR1 S-nitrosylation in mdx mice with truncated d...
Abstract Background Previous research indicated that nitric oxide synthase (NOS) is the key molecule for S-nitrosylation of ryanodine receptor 1 (RyR1) in DMD model mice (mdx... -
Activation of the EIF2AK4-EIF2A/eIF2α-ATF4 pathway triggers autophagy respons...
The intestinal mucosa of Crohn disease (CD) patients is abnormally colonized by adherent-invasive E. coli (AIEC). Upon AIEC infection, autophagy is induced in host cells to... -
Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) is functionally expressed in p...
Abstract Background Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) is a membrane-associated cation channel, widely expressed in neuronal cells and involved in nociception and... -
ERα-36 regulates progesterone receptor activity in breast cancer
Abstract Background Alterations in estrogen and progesterone signaling, via their respective receptors, estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and progesterone receptor (PR),... -
Oxidative stress enhances the expression of IL-33 in human airway epithelial ...
Abstract Background Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is a cytokine belonging to the IL-1 family, and its possible involvement in the pathophysiology of COPD and viral-induced... -
RUNX1 promotes tumour metastasis by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signalling p...
Abstract Background Runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1) plays the roles of an oncogene and an anti-oncogene in epithelial tumours, and abnormally elevated RUNX1 has been... -
Tonic ATP-mediated growth suppression in peripheral nerve glia requires arres...
Abstract Normal Schwann cells (SCs) are quiescent in adult nerves, when ATP is released from the nerve in an activity dependent manner. We find that suppressing nerve activity... -
MiR-1-3p that correlates with left ventricular function of HCM can serve as a...
Abstract Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs that function as regulators of gene expression and thereby contribute to the complex disease phenotypes. Hypertrophic... -
Inhibition of NAMPT aggravates high fat diet-induced hepatic steatosis in mic...
Abstract Background Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is one of the most common liver diseases in the world and is a typical hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome which is... -
Rapamycin promotes endothelial–mesenchymal transition during stress-induced p...
Abstract Background Rapamycin is known to be effective in suppressing senescence and the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Therefore, it is highly expected to... -
RNA helicase p68 deploys β-catenin in regulating RelA/p65 gene expression: im...
Abstract Background RelA/p65 a crucial member of NF-κB signaling pathway plays diverse role in mediating oncogenesis. Limited knowledge prevails on the mechanistic insights of...
