The accessory renal arteries: A systematic review with meta‐analysis
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.Abstract The accessory renal arteries (ARAs) are a well‐described variant of the renal vasculature with clinical implications for radiologists, surgeons, and clinicians. The aim of the present systematic review with meta‐analysis was to estimate the pooled prevalence of ARAs, including their variant number, origin, and termination, and to highlight ...

Scalable Production of Highly-Sensitive Nanosensors Based on Graphene Functionalized with a Designed G Protein-Coupled Receptor [PDF]
, 2014 We have developed a novel, all-electronic biosensor for opioids that consists of an engineered mu opioid receptor protein, with high binding affinity for opioids, chemically bonded to a graphene field-effect transistor to read out ligand binding. A variant of the receptor protein that provided chemical recognition was computationally redesigned to ...

Downregulation of thromboxane A2 and angiotensin II type 1 receptors associated with aging-related decrease in internal anal sphincter tone. [PDF]
, 2019 Aging-associated decrease in internal anal sphincter (IAS) tone (AADI) is a major contributor in the rectoanal incontinence (RI). To determine the pathogenesis of AADI, we investigated the effect of aging on GPCR activation and related downstream ...

Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors: do they have a therapeutic potential in cardiac fibrosis? [PDF]
, 2017 Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid that is characterized by a peculiar mechanism of action. In fact, S1P, which is produced inside the cell, can act as an intracellular mediator, whereas after its export outside the cell, it can act as ...

Neutrophils in cancer: At the crucial crossroads of anti‐tumor and pro‐tumor
Cancer Communications, EarlyView.Abstract Neutrophils are important components of the immune system and play a key role in defending against pathogenic infections and responding to inflammatory cues, including cancer. Their dysregulation indicates potential disease risk factors. However, their functional importance in disease progression has often been underestimated due to their ...

Mutations strengthened SARS-CoV-2 infectivity [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infectivity is a major concern in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) prevention and economic reopening. However, rigorous determination of SARS-COV-2 infectivity is essentially impossible owing to its continuous evolution with over 13752 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) variants in six ...
