Exosomes, as key mediators of intercellular communication, play a central regulatory role in cellular physiological and pathological processes through their dynamic interaction with the cytoskeleton. The cytoskeleton is ...

Dendritic spines (DS) are tiny protrusions implicated in excitatory postsynaptic responses in the CNS. To achieve their function, DS concentrate a high density of ion channels and dynamic actin networks in a tiny special...

Abstract Background The genetic basis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is complicated by high heritability and substantial heterogeneity, in which de novo variants and polygenic burden from common variants have not been...

Three dimensional (3D) in vitro neuronal cultures can better reproduce physiologically relevant phenotypes compared to 2D-cultures, because in vivo neurons reside in a 3D microenvironment. Interest in neuronal 3D culture...

A 12-day-old full-term (FT) male presented with one day of diarrhea and respiratory distress. The exam was notable for hypothermia, tachycardia, and hypoxemia. Initial bloodwork showed leukopenia (3,400 cells/uL, absolut...

A decline in the mitochondrial functions and aging are two closely related processes. The presence of estrogen and androgen receptors and hormone-responsive elements in the mitochondria represents the starting point for ...

Objective Endometriosis (EMs) is a chronic gynaecological condition characterised by the ectopic growth of endometrial tissue; however, its molecular mechanisms remain insufficiently understood. Ferroptosis, an iron-depe...

Immunophilins are a family of proteins whose signature domain is the peptidylprolylisomerase domain. High molecular weight immunophilins are characterized by the additional presence of tetratricopeptide-repeats (TPR) thr...

Abstract Background Cervicovaginal microbiota dysbiosis has been implicated in the progression of cervical cancer. Recent studies have reported an increased abundance of Porphyromonas species in the vaginal microbiota of...

ABSTRACT In terrestrial plants, drought stress activates abscisic acid (ABA) signaling in guard cells, prompting stomatal closure to reduce water loss. Stomatal closure is accompanied by reorganization of the microfilame...

Oligodendrocytes (OLG) are the cells resident in the CNS responsible for myelination. OLG undergo a succession of morphological and molecular changes along several maturational stages. Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is a 25- to 35-K...

Hyaluronan (HA) modulates multidrug resistance (MDR) as well as cell migration. Tiam1 is involved in cytoskeleton reorganization during tumor invasion. In this report we show the relationship among HA, Tiam1, migration a...

Abstract Background The conidia of filamentous fungi play a crucial role in the development and dissemination, which is precisely regulated by multiple genes and controlled by a central regulatory network. The novel tran...

Abstract Angiogenesis underpins regenerative success and refined autologous platelet concentrates (APCs) are therefore under continual optimization. This study compared optimized thermally-induced albumin hydrogel cross-...

Abstract Background During infection, alterations of the endothelium’s barrier function are multifaceted and virus-specific. Rubella virus (RuV) infection during pregnancy damages the endothelium in the placental and f...

Application of modern methods of genetic testing allows to supplement traditional breeding with new ways of predicting economically useful qualities in animals. To improve the parameters of meat productivity in sheep of ...

The vertebrate Hedgehog (Hh) pathway has essential functions during development and tissue homeostasis in normal physiology, and its dysregulation is a common theme in cancer. The Hh ligands (Sonic Hh, Indian Hh, and Des...

Cestode development involves complex morphological and physiological changes. Here, we performed a differential expression analysis of gene transcripts between two developmental stages of the model cestode Mesocestoides ...
