Endocrinology and the brain: Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone signaling [PDF]
, 2017 Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) is a key player of basal and stress activated responses in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) and in extrahypothalamic circuits, where it functions as a neuromodulator to orchestrate humoral and behavioral

β-Arrestin-1 expression and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in laryngeal carcinoma
The International Journal of Biological Markers, 2019 Aim: The novel primary end-point of the present study was to ascertain β-arrestin-1 expression in a cohort of consecutive patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) with information available on their cigarette-smoking habits. A secondary end-

Considering the role of Murine double minute 2 in the cardiovascular system [PDF]
, 2019 The E3 ubiquitin ligase Murine double minute 2 (MDM2) is the main negative regulator of the tumor protein p53 (TP53). Extensive studies over more than two decades have confirmed MDM2 oncogenic role through mechanisms both TP53-dependent and TP53 ...

Pepducins as a potential treatment strategy for asthma and COPD. [PDF]
, 2018 Current therapies to treat asthma and other airway diseases primarily include anti-inflammatory agents and bronchodilators. Anti-inflammatory agents target trafficking and resident immunocytes and structural cells, while bronchodilators act to prevent or

Nuclear β-arrestin1 is a critical cofactor of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α signaling in endothelin-1-induced ovarian tumor progression [PDF]
, 2016 Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) mediates the response to hypoxia or other stimuli, such as growth factors, including endothelin-1 (ET-1), to promote malignant progression in numerous tumors.
