The Activin and BMP signaling pathways exert reciprocal effects on myogenesis and skeletal muscle regeneration after injury. Signal transduction in both pathways is mediated by ligand- induced activation of transcriptional...
Over the past twenty years, opioid drug use has increased, causing an epidemic of opioid abuse that is killing tens of thousands of people every year. Current treatment options for opioid abuse disorder include alternative...
Objective: A proof-of-concept for a platform designed to provide simulations modeling, in three dimensions, anatomical pathology/dysfunctions(as defined by osteopathic diagnostic criteria). Design/Methods: Data from a two...
Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mineral density due to the rate of bone resorption exceeding that of bone formation. Evidence indicates the Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP) pathway promotes bone formation...
Polyphenolic compounds (anthocyanins, flavonoid glycosides) in berries prevent the initiation, promotion, and progression of carcinogenesis in rat’s digestive tract and esophagus, in part, via anti-inflammatory pathways....
Sympathetic-like axon reflexes drive the initial increase in blood flow of the biphasic cutaneous vasodilation response of non-glabrous skin to local heating. It is currently unknown whether this process is involved in the...
Hypertension is an established risk factor for the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). We evaluated the association and population impact of hypertension defined using the new 2017 guidelines on risk of AF. In this...
Introduction. Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological cancer characterized by the expansion and accumulation of monoclonal malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow (BM). Interactions between MM cells and cells of the bone/BM...
The goal of the IMPLICATION project is to provide a tool that will keep the already busy Physicians or Scientists up to date on the latest discoveries, in their respective specialties by providing a faster way to access the...
