Differential activation of AKT isoforms by growth factors in human myotubes
AKT signaling plays a crucial role in muscle physiology, and is activated by stimuli, including insulin, growth factors, and exercise. Three AKT isoforms have been identified in mammals, and they possess both distinct and redundant functions. However, it

Background: The driving force behind osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis is an anabolic-catabolic (a/c) imbalance. Melatonin (MT) is a key player in maintaining a/c stability and mitigates OA pathogenesis, but mechanisms underlying its effects remain poorly

Ecdysteroids: A novel class of anabolic agents? [PDF]
Increasing numbers of dietary supplements with ecdysteroids are marketed as “natural anabolic agents”. Results of recent studies suggested that their anabolic effect is mediated by estrogen receptor (ER) binding. Within this study the anabolic potency of

Modulation of Perlecan Protein towards Chondrocyte Secretion Factors at the Articular Cartilage in Hyperglycemic Animal Model [PDF]
High carbohydrate influences the cartilage microcellular environment and chondrocytes. Perlecan (HSPG2) conducts an essential role as chondrocytes mechano-transducer and chondrocytes secretion factors. This research aims to fulfill the research gap about
