Inflammation plays a key role in the pathogenesis of neurobrucellosis where glial cell interactions are at the root of this pathological condition. In this study, we present evidence indicating that soluble factors secre...

IntroductionCyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) plays a critical role in pain transmission by phosphorylating key nociceptive proteins. One of its recently identified substrates, the P2X2 subunit, is part of the P2X2/3 puri...

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) exhibits genomic instability and rapidly upregulates PD-L1. This study investigated whether delphinidin, the dietary anthocyanidin, could modulate both intrinsic PD-L1 signaling and S...

Bisphenol A (BPA) can combine with glycidyl methacrylate to form bisphenol A glycidyl methacrylate (Bis-GMA). Bis-GMA is an important industrial raw material and a significant component of dental resin materials. Althoug...

Multi-domain traffic engineering is a very challenging problem area and crankback signaling offers a very promising solutions framework herein. Although some initial crankback studies have been done, there is still signi...

Abstract Ovomucin (OM), which has insoluble fractions is a viscous glycoprotein, found in egg albumin. Enzymatic hydrolysates of OM have water solubility and bioactive properties. This study investigated that the immunos...

We consider a toy model for nonlocal quantum correlations in which nature resorts to some form of hidden signaling (i.e., signaling between boxes but not available to the users) to generate correlations. We show that if ...

Alcoholic gastric ulcer is a clinically prevalent gastrointestinal disorder whose pathogenesis is closely associated with both the direct mucosal damage induced by ethanol and the subsequent inflammatory response. Isoliq...

Objective: Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a major microvascular complication of diabetes. This study aimed to elucidate the protective effects of curcumin, a bioactive dietary compound derived from turmeric, and its underl...

ABSTRACT Under certain conditions, components of the oral microbiota have been detected in the gastrointestinal tract, implicating oral microbial communities in intestinal immune regulation. However, the mechanisms by wh...

Chronic inflammation is a hallmark of many diseases, including persistent viral infections. In human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, sustained immune activation contributes to end-organ damage and non-AIDS comorb...

Abstract Background Phosphatidylinositol transfer protein-1 (pitp-1) is involved in the phosphoinositide (PIP) cycle. The role of pitp-1 in promoting healthy longevity remains unknown. Our previous work showed that the P...

Abstract This experiment aims to investigate the impact of probiotic feed on growth performance, carcass traits, plasma lipid biochemical parameters, intramuscular fat and triglyceride content, fatty acid composition, mR...

Substantial efforts have been made to understand the immune response during severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, in order to identify and characterize risk factors, immune mechanisms re...

IntroductionBone defect repair remains a clinical challenge due to the complex inflammatory microenvironment that regulates mesenchymal stem cell fate.MethodsBased on our previous work demonstrating that quercetin-loaded...

Abstract Cytokines from the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily are essential regulators of cell growth, survival, and differentiation, playing a pivotal role in mammalian embryonic development, adult tiss...

Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a highly heterogeneous malignancy lacking reliable prognostic biomarkers and effective therapeutic targets. TMEM72, a kidney-enriched protein, is dysregulated in RCC, yet its bio...

A pathological shift in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) differentiation towards adipogenesis at the expense of osteogenesis is a key cellular driver of osteoporosis induced by glucocorticoids or estrogen deficie...

Harnessing root-associated microbiomes to promote beneficial microbial compositions could offer a sustainable strategy to increase crop resilience. Major challenges impeding this strategy are the lack of understanding of...

Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) is a widespread environmental pollutant and a dioxin-like compound that binds weakly to the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). Because AhR and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) converge to re...

Background: Cardiac complications arising from diabetes mellitus manifest as structural and functional myocardial alterations independent of traditional cardiovascular risk factors. The intricate molecular underpinnings ...
